carstenhhi, how do I escape ^ in the ubuntu-wiki?05:03
robitaillehi carstenh...just replied to you in ubuntu-devel :)05:06
carstenh:)05:06
=== carstenh [~carstenh@mkfw.fh-trier.de] has left #ubuntu-doc []
robitaillethe problem  carstenh had was with a line in the wiki  with two ^ characters; when  moin sees than, then anything between the two ^ is to be superscripted.  Is there any way to avoid that?05:31

Burgundaviathechitowncubs, if you want to jump right in, the wiki always needs work09:09
jsgotangconice nick09:09
thechitowncubsI'd love to help, what pages need assistance09:09
BurgundaviaWikiToDo lists some09:09
Burgundaviapretty much anything needs work09:10
thechitowncubsjsgotangco: was that nick remark directed at me?09:10
BurgundaviaAudioCDBurning is a good example of a simple, well formatted page09:10
jsgotangcothechitowncubs: aye09:10
thechitowncubsHehe, thanks09:10
thechitowncubsI'm not very experienced in wiki editing, i'll take a look at the good pages and take off from there09:11
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/AudioCDBurning09:12
thechitowncubsthat page doesn't exist im afraid09:12
Burgundavias/Burning/Creation09:13
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/JohnLambrechts09:16
thechitowncubsI see that the launchpad is coming together, it looks good.09:18
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation (added NewUserMultimedia link)09:31
Burgundaviathe NewUser stuff is depreceated09:31
thechitowncubswhat do you mean?09:32
Burgundaviawe are merging that information into existing articles09:32
thechitowncubsShould I remove change?09:32
thechitowncubsIt is a good article, thought it was worth noting.09:33
Burgundaviano09:33
Burgundaviabetter to merge the data from NewUserMultimedia into the various existing articles09:33
Burgundaviamaybe split the screenshots out09:33
thechitowncubsI'll see what I can do09:34
Burgundaviacheers09:34
thechitowncubsI thought the screenshots were a nice touch09:34
Burgundaviathey are09:34
Burgundaviamaybe create a MultimediaApplications page?09:35
thechitowncubsAlright cool09:35
robitailleealier tonight I did a search on the wiki for "test" and "sandbox", and found a few pages to delete.  So much cleaning still to do....09:39
Burgundaviayes09:40
Burgundaviastill need to go through the stuff that has not been touched since the autoimport09:40
robitaillehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/BadContent  is that some sort of moin filtering thing?09:41
robitailleand is there a way to easily search for these pre-autoimport pages?09:42
=== jsgotangco [~jsg@202.57.71.236] has joined #ubuntu-doc
BurgundaviaI suspect so09:42
Burgundaviarobitaille, look at the 90 day recentchanges09:43
Burgundaviathe very bottom day is the autoimport09:43
Burgundaviathe adsl-stuff09:44
robitaillethanks.09:45
robitaillehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/WikiTips   delete?  mostly (all?) zwiki stuff09:45
jsgotangcoevil zwiki09:45
Burgundaviadelete all09:46
robitailleit seems part of this group of pages: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WikiHome09:47
Burgundaviashall we create a CategoryArchive or CategoryHistorical for the old developer stuff?09:49
robitailleare you going to put some of the old spec and bof proposals in there?09:51
Burgundaviaya09:51
Burgundaviathe HoaryReleaseSchedule09:51
Burgundaviaand old meeting notes09:51
robitaillesome I already labelled "UbnutuConferences" but they should probably be in an archive section.09:52
Burgundaviathey can be both09:52
Burgundaviapages can have multiple categories09:52
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats09:52
thechitowncubssorry09:52
thechitowncubswrong paste09:52
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultimediaApplications09:53
Burgundaviaok09:53
Burgundaviaclean off anything that is not a multimedia application09:53
Burgundaviaeverything above "common multimedia ..."09:53
Burgundaviaand make a link to AddingRepositoriesHowto and RestrictedFormats09:54
Burgundaviaso Archive or Historical ?09:54
robitailleI would  go for Archive09:57
Burgundaviaok09:58
Burgundaviadone09:59
robitailleI'm going for the night... see you tomorrow.10:00
thechitowncubsPage updated.10:01
thechitowncubsBurgundavia: What do you think so I know for further edits10:02
Burgundaviaany idea what language this is? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PouzivatelskaPrirucka10:03
Burgundavianeed to seperate out default for extra10:03
thechitowncubsstumped me10:03
Burgundaviaand make it clear what RestrictedFormats is good for10:04
thechitowncubs10-410:04
Burgundaviacheers10:06
Burgundaviaand make NewUserMultimedia nothing but links10:07
thechitowncubslinks to?10:10
Burgundaviarelevant for each section10:10
Burgundaviathe screenshots section becomes a link to Multimedia, etc.10:10
thechitowncubsshould Sound Juicer and Sound Recorder be considered multimedia applications?10:12
Burgundaviayes10:12
Burgundaviaand totem10:12
Burgundaviaand muine10:12
Burgundaviaor beep-media-player10:12
thechitowncubs10-410:12
Burgundaviabut don't add new screenshots10:12
Burgundaviakeep this page? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ListiQuette10:13
thechitowncubsI'll add new screenshots for programs not within ubuntu, and remove screenshots that ubuntu already has by default10:13
thechitowncubsthat seems logical10:13
Burgundaviadon't remove any screenshots10:15
Burgundaviaas non-ubuntu users might look at the page10:15
thechitowncubsso why wouldn't i add new screenshots for the other multimedia applications10:16
thechitowncubsi'm not seeing the logic10:16
Burgundavianot worth the effort10:16
Burgundaviaas the default theme is likely to change10:16
thechitowncubsAlready been done :)10:16
thechitowncubsI'll see how it looks and change accordingly10:17
Burgundaviayes10:17
Burgundaviaideally screenshots should have one canonical source10:17
Burgundaviahopefully launchpad can provide that10:17
Burgundaviaas we use it in our Quick Guide as well10:17
thechitowncubshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultimediaApplications10:35
Burgundaviaouch10:35
Burgundaviayou didn't use the default them10:36
Burgundaviathat is fine, as they are likelly to change10:36
BurgundaviaI think Amarok is default for Kubuntu10:36
Burgundaviabut otherwise nice work10:36
Burgundaviaand SJ can play cds in Breezy10:36
jsgotangcohey that is nice10:37
thechitowncubsGlad to be a part of ubuntu :(10:37
Burgundaviawe need something like in launchpad10:37
thechitowncubs:)10:37
thechitowncubsI will talk you guys tomorrow I hope10:37
Burgundaviacheers, and thanks for the good work10:38
jsgotangcoWOW a TOC on Moin10:38
BurgundaviaUserDocumentation has it as well10:38
jsgotangcois it manually created (i bet)10:38
Burgundaviayes10:38
jsgotangcoarrghh10:38
Burgundaviawell, a table wrapping the TOC10:38
jsgotangcomoin tables are easy to do though compared to mediawiki imo10:39
Burgundavianot really10:39
Burgundavia{| starts a table10:39
Burgundavia|} ends one10:39
Burgundaviayou have a lot more control with mediawiki tables10:39
Burgundaviaand they look cleaner10:39
jsgotangcoUserDocumentation looks nice10:39
Burgundaviait does10:40
Burgundaviawe just need more content behind it10:40
BurgundaviaI have been adding stuff to the category10:40
Burgundaviaso we can clean it up and add it UD10:40
Burgundaviagnome-app-install looks like it is coming along10:41
