| coolbhavi | yes | 08:57 |
| duncan-nz | could you review a wiki page a bit for me? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundVideoDefault | 08:58 |
| duncan-nz | just some feedback. | 08:58 |
| coolbhavi | You can add a link to restricted formats in case of extra codecs installation I think | 09:00 |
| coolbhavi | for newbies it ll be more comprehensive also I think | 09:01 |
| duncan-nz | You don't think that Hardy handles this without needing explanation? I suppose we could add a link under 'see also'. Do you have a link handy? Preferably from the official docs. | 09:02 |
| coolbhavi | yes but a lot of questions are there in LP in hardy multimedia | 09:03 |
| duncan-nz | LP? | 09:03 |
| coolbhavi | launchpad | 09:03 |
| duncan-nz | I suppose many people are just not used to dealing with codecs. Do you have a link? | 09:04 |
| coolbhavi | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats | 09:04 |
| duncan-nz | I think I'd go for the two official pages linked from there. https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/musicvideophotos/C/codecs.html and https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-badformats ok? | 09:08 |
| duncan-nz | Do you feel like adding those links, I'm dashing around the wiki like a madman just now. | 09:08 |
| duncan-nz | ? | 09:08 |
| coolbhavi | yes just edit the totem part and add https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-badformats as playing proprietary formats | 09:12 |
| duncan-nz | ok | 09:13 |
| duncan-nz | thanks | 09:13 |
| coolbhavi | and dont forget to edit rythmbox and sound recorder mate...:) Nice work...:) | 09:14 |
| duncan-nz | .. don't have time, I'm just trying to set the layout so that when there is time people will do it consistently. | 09:17 |
| duncan-nz | What do you think of the whole 'Applications Guide' from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Applications | 09:17 |
| duncan-nz | ? | 09:17 |
| coolbhavi | Looks fine to me | 09:22 |
| coolbhavi | recommended apps need updating | 09:23 |
| coolbhavi | like for mp3 podcats and ipod mounting amarok is the favourite of many I think | 09:33 |
| duncan-nz | lots of things need updating, that's not what I'm tring to achieve. I'm trying to establish a structure so people can find things in the same (hopefully logical) way that the Main Menu works. Of course you're right though. | 09:51 |
| duncan-nz | anyone watching? | 10:23 |
| duncan-nz | wiki question comming | 10:23 |
| Hellow | hello | 19:44 |
| Hellow | I wish to create a page in the troubleshooting area on how to get help when none of the other pages work | 19:45 |
| Hellow | unless that has already been done | 19:46 |
| Hellow | how should i go about doing it? | 19:47 |
| Flannel | Hellow: what do you mean? | 19:52 |
| Hellow | Old_Soldier is helping me | 19:53 |
| Old_Soldier | Flannel he's talking about wiki pages , i'll walk him through making sure he doesn't duplicate effort | 19:54 |
| Flannel | Old_Soldier: No, I know. Just wasn't sure what sort of "how do I do it" help he was asking (creating the page, creating the content, something else, etc) | 19:55 |
| Hellow | i found a page on my topic, and i added onto it | 19:56 |
| duncan-nz | I'm not working on it at the moment but since some people are watching I'd like to draw attention to a project I'm trying to start on the wiki. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Applications/ProjectHome | 19:56 |
| Alan_M | Flannel I got confused myself, we were trying to make a team effort on it and i was just like stumped :) | 19:57 |
| duncan-nz | Hellow, but are there useful links to it in useful places? | 19:57 |
| Hellow | i was suggesting making a "How to get additional help" sort of page in troubleshooting in the community docs, but i found a very similar page on the front page, so i added how to get help via irc | 19:58 |
| Hellow | front page of the community docs | 19:59 |
| Hellow | nice idea duncan-nz, and i would like to help | 19:59 |
| duncan-nz | great, just add a link to your userpage and subscribe to the page and say what you think. | 20:00 |
| Hellow | hmm, i have not created a userpage on the docs yet, can i just link to my wiki? | 20:03 |
| Hellow | my wiki is the most descriptive page about me | 20:03 |
| duncan-nz | but you have a user name, use that | 20:05 |
| duncan-nz | if it's not a wikiWord put it in square brackets | 20:06 |
| Hellow | right now i am working on going through the pages and cleaning up a few mistakes i found | 20:06 |
| duncan-nz | um, okay, cool | 20:07 |
| Hellow | like Tee Wars is not teewars anymore, the name was copyrighted by someone else, so they are Teeworlds now | 20:07 |
| duncan-nz | ok | 20:07 |
| Hellow | how do i make my name a link? | 20:08 |
| Hellow | o, and i am adding a ToC to the front page | 20:12 |
| Hellow | how do i add a new page to the community docs? | 20:25 |
| Hellow | i want to do it for duncan | 20:25 |
| duncan-nz | a new page where, on the wiki? | 20:26 |
| Hellow | yea | 20:27 |
| Hellow | for discussion | 20:27 |
| duncan-nz | Just type a WikiWord and then follow that link. But if you're quite new to the wiki it might be best if you stick to editing existing pages for a while. It's easy to accidentally duplicate effort. | 20:27 |
| duncan-nz | in this case you might type OpenDiscussion, preview the page, if it's right then save. Then follow the link. | 20:29 |
| Hellow | brb | 21:14 |
