bobodod | hello | 22:29 |
---|---|---|
bobodod | anyone here? | 22:31 |
sommer | sort of | 22:31 |
bobodod | I'd like to ask a couple questions about getting started on helping in the wiki. | 22:32 |
bobodod | got a min? | 22:32 |
sommer | sure | 22:32 |
bobodod | I've got a few ODF docs I use to keep track of solutions I've found for Ubuntu problems, projects I'm working on or want to pursue, package settings I like, etc. Is it cool to migrate those to subpages of wiki.ubuntu.com/bobodod/? | 22:34 |
sommer | bobodod: I don | 22:37 |
sommer | err don't think there'd be anything wrong with that per se | 22:37 |
sommer | but if your current stuff applies to existing pages it'd probably be better to add the new content to existing pages | 22:38 |
sommer | also it'd be greatly appreciated to improve the community docs on help.ubuntu.com/community | 22:39 |
bobodod | sommer: that's definitely the plan. A lot of it is actually from those pages already, but formatted in a way that is useful to me, i.e. condensed & steps laid out w/o descriptions. One of the things I want to put there is a large (& still growing) CLI cheat-sheet. I'm definitely going to use these things not only for my own benefit but to help me manage the ways in which I can help the community docs, which is why I thought it might | 22:40 |
bobodod | be ok. | 22:40 |
sommer | cool, I say go for it... great thing about wikis is they're easy to change :) | 22:42 |
bobodod | do you have any idea if there's a way for me to backup those pages once I put them there? What would be ideal would be to be able to cache local copies & keep them sync'd (for backup & offline reference). I searched MoinMoin's site & a few other places for a way to do this, but all I could find was stuff about using rsync & so on, which I don't think I could do w/o lower-level access. | 22:45 |
bobodod | Although, I could use HTTrack... | 22:45 |
bobodod | I think... | 22:45 |
sommer | ya, not sure about that... I'd think the only way'd be some sort of scraper | 22:50 |
bobodod | ok, right on. That's what HTTrack is & it happens to be packaged in the Universe repository already. Check it out here, if you're curious: http://www.httrack.com/ | 22:53 |
bobodod | sommer: thanks a lot for your help! I recognize your name, so I must have seen your work in the docs. | 22:54 |
sommer | bobodod: np | 22:56 |
