FHB2025 WikiUpgrade/Proposals

Proposals

To streamline decision making, I have made a few proposals so we can discuss them, and decide on them. Please read these proposals, and add your opinion. Maybe add your own proposal?

Also I would like some guidance on when we can see a decision as 'made', and prevent issues later.

Wikipage Cleanup

2025-01-15 Ikmaak thinks it would be good to cleanup the current pages in the wiki. This is the list with current pages, names are very unclear, and ad-hoc, and give no sense of the timeline.

Goals: Make pages more structured and findable, while keeping the info in the pages the same.
How: One naming system for pages, and fit all current pages info that system, if they can. Use Redirects to preserve historical external links. (Could we get serverlogs to see what external links are in use?)
- Events start with a page named 'Events:<YYYY-MM-DD EventStartDate>_FHB@<Eventname>' that redirects to '<Eventname>'
- Subpages and workshops follow the convention '<Eventname>/<Subpagename>'
- Categories are used to connect recurrences of the same workshops
- User pages about special subjects go into '<Userpage>/<Eventname>/<Subject>'

This way we can also reinstate our Events list, and add the history as a separate page. (Meeting logs are numbered, events can be too?) History will be better readable, and we will have a good start on making new event pages, as part of my next proposal.

Please add your name and opinion to this page, so others know what your opinions are, and we can decide better.


Name	Agree	Notes
Ikmaak	Y	I made the proposal, and agree with it :P
Jennifer	Y
Jeti	Y	I wonder if the old pages are used much to warrant updating all of them, maybe only last event to see how it looks

Please also advise on who else we need to get buy-in from, before starting the change. Waiting too long can make the work stale.

Cookiecutter pages

2025-01-15 Ikmaak thinks it would be good to make Cookiecutter pages to be a good start for new event pages.

Goals: Make nice and readable pages, with all the best info we had before and new info. Add a manual how to do things easily, and what to look out for.
How: Making a new event page, with general info that we would like to present to users, ready for adaptation to new events.
- Adding standard pages for recurring Workshops, and general workshops.
- Manuals for devices and procedures, for instance the oven, or 'how to do dishes'
- Checklist pages to see if all prep for events is done.
- Feedback pages to make sure we remember lessons learned.

This way we can make the preparation for new events easier, and make sure we have not missed things, and hopefully have better docs for participants every event.
