This is an old revision of the document!


Content

Good Content Examples on the Net

UbuntuUsers.de

UbuntuUsers.de uses a repeating layout/structure on every site. This makes the wiki extremely convenient to use, because sites are built on use cases (Example).

Question to the community: Does anybody have any experience with defining dokuwiki site templates?

Templates

Blog

The new blog should be part of dokuwiki, so that there is only one content base for the global search on the X2Go site.

Question to the community: Has anyone some experience with the blog plugin?

Alternatively we could use the announcement mailing list for this purpose (RSS reader on start page)


Structure

Index Sites

Index/start pages should be available for every namespace. Those start pages should technically all be the same. I (Heinz) don't think the graphical menues are a good idea. I would prefer some really clean index page with only one information per line. Those pages should definetely be plugin-independent (i.e. not using any dokuwiki plugin).


Plugins

Needed Plugins

editx

Extended edit functions such as renaming or deleting a page.

orphanswanted

Find orphan pages and wanted pages.

toc

Inserts TOC in the place you specify in your Wiki page.

Inserts a ToDo button into the editor toolbar

Use a CAPTCHA challenge to protect DokuWiki against automated spam.

maintenancemessage

Displays a maintenance message on all pages to notify of upcoming downtime, can also disable editing for all users.

Access/Restrictions

Realtime Contribution

Should changes be allowed to take place immediately after pressing the “save” button?

Survey:


Code Of Ethics

Do Not Delete Work of Others

Nobody should delete pages or articles of others without informing the community or author.

  • [ Heinz-Markus Graesing ] This should be done by using a documentation mailing list.
  • [ Mike Gabriel ] I would rather prefer one of the already existing channels (x2go-dev or x2go-user ML)

Only Tested Articles

Not tested or poorly tested setups should definately be marked as “suggestion” or “untested setup”.


Orthography

Criticism

Documentation vs. Wiki

There was a lot of criticism regarding “only to offer a wiki” as documentation source. People are really looking for downloadable and readable installation guidelines. If they are searching on the net, they normally are looking for PDF-files.

  • [ Mike Gabriel ] Use dokuwiki offline plugin, find a doku2pdf (or docbook XML or …) converter

Wiki Layout

A lot of the contributing people would like to have a more wiki like page template. The logo bar should be removed and the layout should be spread over the whole page. The CSS file should not modify the major tags like h1, h2, P or SPAN - this should be in the hand of the user (configuration of the client/Browser).
