Hi Phill,<br><br>I've had a small chat with Lyz on IRC, but the docs team needs to make a decision on this. I'm not going to make this decision alone after only just being submitted to the team. As far as I'm concerned it should be moved to <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidLynx/GraphicalInstall">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidLynx/GraphicalInstall</a> and be link to it from it's parent page. I also think instead of naming this one "Graphical Install" (which fits the bill, true) "Ubiquity" as everyone I know knows that it is called Ubiquity. But that is just a personal issue.<br>
<br>I've taken the liberty to add both the docs team as Kate in this message string to hopefully speed-up the process of getting a decision made.<br><br>With metta, Chris<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 29, 2012 at 10:59, Phill Whiteside <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:PhillW@ubuntu.com" target="_blank">PhillW@ubuntu.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

We thought we had hunted all ours down that needed updating for 12.04..... Wrong!! Within Lubuntu we have a wiki / docs sub-team, this allows us to co-ordinate our activities without flooding the 'main' mailing list.<br>
<br>As for updating pages, the idea behind the wiki format is so that anyone can update things whilst retaining the ability to 'roll' back changes if need be. There's a whole load of useful information at <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide</a> for those unsure about 'the best way' to do things like formatting, how to add / remove screen shots etc. Chris Druif is our head honcho for Wiki / Doc. Details on that team can be found via <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved#How_to_Contribute_.26_Participate" target="_blank">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved#How_to_Contribute_.26_Participate</a> Like myself, Chris is now a fully fledged wiki editor; although as I concentrate on QA stuff more these days, his knowledge now exceeds mine. <br>
<br>On the subject of 10.04 etc, there is still discussion ongoing on how best to handle pages for older and even obsloete releases. The best option at the moment is to move the, in this case, the 10.04 specific notes to from <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall</a> to <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall</a>_10.04 with a pointer to it from its "parent" page, so those who wish to install 10.04 still have the details. I can't find the specific email thread, but from what I remember, this even applies to versions that are no longer supported so we as wiki people and others who have never wanted to update still have access to them.<br>
<br>I'm sure that Chris will have a clearer memory of where that part of the decission process is at and I've cc'd him my reply to ensure my facts are correct!<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Phill.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<br>
I hope you don't mind the direct email, but I know you do a lot of<br>
wiki stuff. I have a protocol question with it comes to updating the<br>
/community wiki: is there a todo list somewhere or place where people<br>
take on tasks for updating wiki pages? And any version-specific<br>
information I should know about (we only update certain pages for LTS<br>
versions, etc)?<br>
<br>
To help illustrate, I ask because I've got some volunteers for Ubuntu<br>
Learning again. Essentially what we do is link to the <a href="http://help.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">help.ubuntu.com</a><br>
(and /community as needed) as core data for each class, then we write<br>
an outline for an instructor with example exercises and quizzes. Now,<br>
as part of this we want to help the wiki team update the docs, so the<br>
first page we found and wanted to use...<br>
<br>
<a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall</a><br>
<br>
is for 10.04. I have someone ready to review it and make screenshots<br>
reflecting 12.04. Is it ok for him to just jump right in?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
