Good morning/afternoon/evening Ubuntu-AU'ers
I just wanted to drop you all an email to let you know that I have
made some changes to the wiki
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam). In an effort to revitalise,
revamp and refresh the information I have gone through and spent some
time sorting out a lot of the pages that were linked there.
As a result a lot of pages have been moved to the /Archives area
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Archives) not based on if an
idea or project was any good but based up how long it has been since
there had been any activity on the page. If anything has been moved
here in error please bring it out of there and link it to the
appropriate page on the wiki.
I have also gone through and combined a few of the pages to link to
the /Projects page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects).
These include the BugJam page, the Hardware documentation information
(I have also reorganised all the different notebook information pages
as well and included this under this area), local meetings page and
the wireless broadband information page here as well.
I have also added in a "where to from here?" section on the New
Members page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Members/NewMembers)
as it has been noted that a lot of new members feel that they don't
know how to get involved so I thought this page was a good place to
put this information. I have just put in some basic information that
is implied elsewhere but spells it out a bit clearer.
The idea being to not have vast numbers of sub pages off the main
Australian Team page but to group them so it's a lot easier to find
what you are looking for and a lot easier to maintain into the future.
I plan on doing some more work on streamlining some other parts of the
website but have kept it at this for now.
If you want to do some work on the wiki I can tell you after looking
at it the hardware documentation pages are the least updated pages on
the site (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects/HardwareDocumentation).
So please get in and add your experiences in the appropriate sub pages
so that the whole team can benefit.
As this is an open wiki there is no limits on who can edit the wiki
(as long as you are signed in) so please try and keep page structures
similar and ordered as it is starting to become on the wiki now. If
you have lots of information to add or want to start a whole new page
about a particular topic and you're not sure how to do this just email
the list or jump on IRC and we'll be able to help you out. it is a
TEAM wiki so please remember the Ubuntu Code of Conduct when
contemplating putting information on the pages and the more people
that get involved the more successful it will be as a place to go for
communication and information for the whole team.
I am keen to hear any/all feedback, good and bad alike. Feel free to
email it to the list directly or to send me one off list or on IRC if
you prefer.
Regards,
Jared Norris
