gunix | hey pleia2 | 16:20 |
pleia2 | it's pretty informal to get started, you just start contributing, have any idea what you'd like to work on? | 16:20 |
gunix | i am working as a sysadmin and i am also trying new technology every week. i run most of the test servers on ubuntu. considering the amount of tests i do, i think it would be good for everybody if I added the research to the wiki | 16:21 |
gunix | i wrote this yesterday: http://gunix.cloud/blog/wordpresscluster.html | 16:21 |
gunix | however, i had to test stuff for weeks before getting everything working. maybe there is another guy there looking to get a similar setup, and i can make his life easier | 16:22 |
pleia2 | cool, so the wiki is a bit tricky, but in order to edit it you first need to apply to join this launchpad team: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wiki-editors | 16:22 |
pleia2 | once you're added to that team, you can log in with edit rights, but it has super strong caching so you may need to refresh a bit to stop the pages from showing up Immutable | 16:23 |
pleia2 | (I know, it's awful, but the wiki is old and gets hit by spam a lot, sigh) | 16:23 |
pleia2 | if you give me your launchpad name I can nudge the admin to make sure you get added | 16:24 |
gunix | my wife is meowing because she wants food, so i will go out for some pizza now | 16:25 |
gunix | i will apply via the editors link and send you a message | 16:25 |
gunix | my launchpad should be on gxgung@gmail.com | 16:25 |
pleia2 | ok, I'm about to get on a train so I'll be a bit MIA, but I'll reply when I can | 16:26 |
gunix | pleia2: no probs, my irc is on a VPS so you can write anytime and i will check it when i am at a terminal | 16:26 |
pleia2 | ok :) | 16:27 |
gunix | pleia2: i sent my request to noin the editors group. my name is Gheorghe Ungureanu | 18:57 |
davidcalle | gunix: just seen it, approving you | 20:40 |
gunix | wow davidcalle ! that was fast! i didn't finish even reading the code of conduct | 20:48 |
davidcalle | gunix: heh, for wiki access, there is no vetting other than checking you are not a spam account and have some actual *buntu background, nice article btw! | 20:49 |
gunix | thank you! i saw there is not page atm for ubuntu 17.04 server. should i write for 16.04 LTS ? | 20:50 |
gunix | *no | 20:50 |
gunix | as far as i understand this, wiki.ubuntu.com is maintained by the devs and contains mostly minimal information, but very relevant information about ubuntu. the community pages https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ will have various tutorials about all the software you can install | 22:46 |
gunix | aaand the comunity pages need some work as some of the tutorials are for ubuntu 9 | 22:47 |
gunix | am i missing anything here? | 22:47 |
