Accepted and implemented requests should be deleted. Rejected requests should be moved to the bottom of the page to avoid requesting them again.
I think that we should use specific "editor's notes templates" rather that nominate individual pages here. We can make automatic list of pages using a given template by having a Category:X tag inside the template. See for example the Category:ToDo . MinhHaDuong 09:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
This is a place for proposing pages of this wiki for deletion and discussing the proposal. See Openmoko Wiki Editing Guidelines#Deleting pages for details. Old discussions are archived to Wiki Issues/archive.
These pages were proposed for deletion before the new policy was introduced. Please continue the discussion in the appropriate sections below
Page | Reason | Yes kill it votes | No keep it votes |
---|---|---|---|
gsmd | outdated (according to Mickey), not updated for over a year | Marko Knöbl,(I vote "yes", if it is for sure, not used anymore.How can we check it?-LeadMan) |
Maturity level ideas from the documentation list copied by Kempelen 19:05, 1 October 2008 (UTC):
Decision postponed. :-) (Feel free to vote here anyway.)
We have discussed design on the mailing list, with the conclusion that revising was not a big priority. However, the wiki should be skinnable from user-space by editing : http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css . And for development, each user can have his/her own CSS to eat his own dogfood. But I can't seem to make this feature work here. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Monobook MinhHaDuong 12:26, 12 September 2008 (UTC).
We should explore another wiki organization tool: portals. A portal is an introductory page for a given topic. It complements the main article of the subject by introducing the reader to key articles, images, and categories that further describe the subject. Portals also help editors find related projects and things they can do to help. MinhHaDuong 13:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

First discussion in the mailing list (Note: in the middle of a thread about left navboxes)
Their is a bot on the openmoko wiki that's controlled by User:Dolfje. If you have tasks for the bot, please put them here. A request has been made to tag DolfjeBot1 user account with the 'bot' flag. Here is the lists of users with permissions at the necessary `bureaucrat' level.
Can we please install/fix the following features for this wiki:
The name of this wiki is currently "Openmoko". I think it should be "Openmoko Wiki" for the following reasons:

I suggest moving the translations to sub-wikis, like the way wikipedia does it. Currently all translations show up in searches and under category-lists. --Johndoesacc 12:03, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
+1. See issues and solutions for a multilingual mediawiki at: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Multilingual_MediaWiki Also, the correspondence between translation should be maintained with tags: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Interlanguage_links The request has been heard but maybe not in the right places. What is the best operational frequency to ping the hosting engineers for that ? MinhHaDuong 13:02, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
After discussion on the Documentation ML, sub-wikis are out. We want to try namespaces. MinhHaDuong 09:31, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
This is not strictly Wiki issue, but discussed on the documentation list as being a serious usability disadvantage. Symlinks and .tar.gz files should be removed from the release directories because they confuse users. Ref: [1]
Example: http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/releases/Om2008.9/README.html
It should at least link to: Om_2008.9_Update#Download_and_Flashing
When a requested Wiki Issue is voted for not to be done, it must be moved here, to make sure it won't get continously requested again.
