| = Wiki Cleanup = This describes plans for improving the Mercurial wiki. <<TableOfContents>> == Goal == The wiki aims to be a moderately coherent body of documentation to supplement the following resources: * Mercurial's [[http://selenic.com/hg/help|built-in documentation]] and [[http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ManPages|man pages]] * The [[MercurialBook|Mercurial book]] * Mercurial's [[MailingLists|mailing lists]] As such, it makes sense to have things like the following: * in-depth information and [[CategoryHowto|How-tos]] that are beyond the scope of the book * information about extensions and third-party tools * links to other resources * FAQs, tips, and other useful recipes * best practices * migration and conversion assistance * documentation of internals * development plans and other information for contributors Things that probably ''don't'' make sense for the wiki include: * discussion - use the mailing lists * non-best practices * advertising == Improvement plan == As of October 2010, much of the wiki suffers from: * inconsistent formatting and style * poor linking and organization * excessive duplication * pages that duplicate help or book content * lots of stub pages * random commentary and non-canonical advice * irrelevant pages courtesy of Moin This page describes a collection of janitorial tasks for incrementally improving this situation over time. If you have questions, please ask on [[IRC|IRC]]. === Spam removal === Watch the RecentChanges page for the introduction of spam pages and other vandalism. Revert vandalized pages and delete newly-created spam pages and add offending users to BannedUsers (or ask an admin). === Update pages and page names to match wiki style === See the [[WikiStyleGuide|wiki style guide]] for guidelines on page style and edit pages appropriately. Add pages that need further editing to CategoryAudit. Add redirects to renamed pages to avoid breaking existing links. === Remove discussion === Some pages have discussion questions that belong elsewhere. Either move these to a '/Talk' subpage or delete them. === Fix orphaned and abandoned pages === Visit OrphanedPages and AbandonedPages to find pages that need attention and add appropriate [[CategoryCategories|categories]] and links from other pages. === Mark pages needing merging === There are a number of pages that contain very similar content on the wiki. Use the search tool to find related pages and add them to CategoryProposedMerge. Include a marker like the following under the title of each page to be merged: {i} This page's contents should be merged with PageFoo and PageBar. {{{ {i} This page's contents should be merged with PageFoo and PageBar }}} If you undertake the consolidating of page contents, remember to redirect the old pages to the new one. === Link to built-in help and book topics === There are a lot of topics on the wiki that are now covered in help, manpages, and the book. Add links to such content where appropriate. To link to built-in help topics (for instance the [[http://selenic.com/hg/help/branch|hg branch]] command), use a link like the following: {{{ [[http://selenic.com/hg/help/branch|hg branch]] }}} For pages whose contents are completely covered by these resources, see the section below on page deletion. === Page deletion === Add pages that don't seem appropriate for the wiki (irrelevant stubs, random commentary, etc.) to CategoryProposedDeletion and include a marker like the following under the title: /!\ This page is proposed for deletion. {{{ /!\ This page is proposed for deletion. }}} Use the 'Local Site Map' action to find pages that link to a page and remove those links. === Fix broken links === Visit WantedPages and point broken links to appropriate pages or remove them as appropriate. === Expand stubs and create needed pages === Visit CategoryStubs and WantedPages and expand wiki content. ---- CategoryWiki |
