Introduction
This Wiki is a free volunteer effort, we hope you find it useful and invite you to participate by improving the existing articles or creating new ones based on your experience.
This page collects all the information regarding the administration of this Wiki.
Openbravo Wiki administrators
If you need to contact an administrator about:
- deletions
- undeletions
- page protection
- reporting vandalism
- ... or any other sysop activities
A complete list of administrators can be found here.
Many administrators can be contacted using the e-mail listed in their pages or in real time via IRC, see Openbravo chat channels.
To check if this list is up to date, check the user rights log for any new admins which have been added.
Administration Policy
- The Main_Page is a very valuable resource with limited space. Our criteria for linking documents is:
- Only documents that are completed or in a very advanced stage will be linked.
- The documents should be in English. For localized content use the appropriated pages.
- Document consolidation. We prefer to have single documents with a same subject that several (fragmented ones)
- The documents that need to be reviewed are marked with the template NeedsAttention and included in the need attention category.
List of pending Wiki administrative tasks
- Documents that need to be reviewed.
- Lots of the documents in the Wiki has meaningless names like OB_2.35_ReleaseNotes, Architecture (better Openbravo R2.x architecture description). Document names are important because they are always at the top (the title), mediawiki shows first the results of matches in the titles when searching and also, because we end up using descriptions for giving a real meaning to these documents.
- Enhance the current administration policy (see above).
- Include the hot news criteria
- Explain why to build on top of other's people work is good (better than start from scratch)
- Criteria for protected pages
- Criteria for redirects when a page is deleted
- Enhance Openbravo Wiki Style guide.
- Fix style and bolds
- Images to edit
- Do a full review of colors used in all images
System administration tasks
- When you go the user's preferences, Skins, there are skins like 'Openbravo_b', Openbravo_b2' that should be removed. Actually, we only should have the skin 'Openbravo'.
- When you login, instead of coming back to the page that you were you always go to the main page.
- Update to MediaWiki 1.12
- Remove the first / in /Projects/CRLFSupport and /Projects/OnlineCalendar title names
- Does talk page e-mail notification work? Check Gil's test.
