you may be surprised of the great number of them :-)
So far I can recall, Jean has few more originals on fr.opensuse.org that might be useful if he finds time and resources to reverse the information flow.
I plan to do so (but time is lacking)
There is more examples where page should exist, but it has to be filled more with local content, like Todo, Tasks, Projects, Teams, Events, and probably more.
true. But be aware that the initial openSUSE community is beta testers, so english speaking. normal, non english speaking users, are much more difficult to track :-). It will take years to have. 264 registered users for french wiki, 753 for the german one (SUSE native country!), 21894 for english wiki...
Keep as it is now. If page is not translated and there is some interest for it, include disclaimer in local language and link to English version.
yes
The percentage of all articles including original written in that language compared to en.opensuse.org. A bit of marketing :-) Skip what is not in your favor.
BTW, I'm satisfied with a number of articles. It's growing every day. Not that all is super, but it's growing, and taking that main topic for openSUSE is Computer - Operating System - Linux - SUSE which is quite smaller than Wikipedia's, we are doing good.
beware the statistic page for openSUSE is broken. a partial fix was made some time ago and now the "new page" counter is growing, but it started with 6 month late, so in the french wikinit's at a mere 50 pages, not the true page number (more than 1100 page modified)
I don't use statistics page, so the fact it doesn't count good didn't influenced my comment :-) I'm talking about what I can see every day on Special:newpages
The link to the "Article of the Month" on English wiki would be nice way to pull attention, without obligation to understand message. Later it can be the article of the month on any wiki; the criteria to publish it, can be how many translations to other wikies it has.
probably not. The AoM should be different on any wiki. Think that any wiki must have it's own life ASAP
AoM should be present on all wikies, but it should not be forbidden on language portal. It would be another bit to pull attention of people that stepped in portal just out of curiosity, following the link from somewhere else. Assumption that everybody visiting international portal is doing that only to find his/her language is misleading. The openSUSE has no control who will link to it and what entry point will be selected by that site or page creator. So let we pick up this people attention too.
I wasn't bothered with icons on right, but I can agree with Jean. It looks cleaner now. I consider this solved as graphic layout.
+1
"We work together to create
may be we should open an other thread to discuss the page content (words, not layout).
Yes. It should be discussed in separate thread. Let we see where is Frank at. Without him we can discuss whatever we want to the end of the time, with the same result. BTW, layout is just the shape of something. It has many synonyms: http://www.wordsmyth.net/live/home.php?script=search&matchent=layout&matchtype=exact I used it in the same way as the word arrangement. Discussing the content is important, as shorter paragraphs will bring lesser headache how to organize the page graphic layout. For instance, in the http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/3/33/Frontpage-simple-005.png the News and Documentation sections you can see on the first screen without scrolling, so Stefan's complaint about News section is probably solved. All that you can see on the picture is done in a hurry, just to demonstrate what I was talking about, and the most is achieved just by reducing redundancy. -- Regards, Rajko.
