FHB2025 WikiUpgrade

Ikmaak is interested in working on the FHB wiki, but it would be good to not just go on an editing spree, but try to work on shared goals.

Here are some basic questions to look at, to start the conversation.

1: What would we like the FHB wiki to be like

 -Ikmaak I would like it to be a site that helps Event Participants find good info on what FHB does, and how they can add to the joy. Before, during and after. Also I would like it to be easy to plan for new events, and make it easy for event info to be added to the cooperation options they offer. Also it would be good to have a good way to present our history and information.

2: What is missing / great in the current wiki.

3: what are the issues of our current system

4: Who do we want to prioritize with our information? Event visitors, Participants, Web info seekers? any other options?

-<jglauche> I can answer 4: Event visitors and Workshop Participants, before, during and after the event (I've been bad at it, still need to copy a few recepies for my workshop that worked) and ideally also post project descriptions

-<jeti> I see two main uses cases
 - During events, info for people wanting to do workshops / help
 - In general information about FHB so people know what it is

5: any other issues to take care of?

-<jeti> copying contents between event wiki and FHB wiki during events is annoying, maybe use one of the plugins from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Page_import to automate

6: What do we want to do with the present information, update it, or preserve as is without updates.

7: Currently we use a 2010 theme, that has updated to a 2022 version. Do we want this to update too? (you can test for yourself by choosing your personal default on your preference page) It is likely a drop-in change to the LocalSettings.php file.

Please add your info, and add questions as needed. The more info we have, the better the wiki can become.

-<jeti> I wonder if we shouldn't make it a bit wider than only the wiki, more about FHB media strategy I think we now have our wiki, event wikis, maillist, facebook seems the Facebook posts from last year only reach about 30 people so I wonder how useful those are. probably should move to mastodon for that

-<jglauche> the FHB wiki makes formatting things really hard
  -<jeti> maybe use a template for recipes, for example https://www.cookipedia.co.uk/recipes_wiki/How_to_use_the_recipe_builder_templates
-<jglauche> I don't like the styles and the apples as list items
