The nature of UserBase

UserBase is a repository for user-centric information regarding any part of a KDE release. It is a wiki, written by volunteers, and editable by any registered user. As such, while care is taken, it is not possible to guarantee the accuracy of any entry. We welcome your contribution, particularly with regard to hints and tips that enhance the user experience. Those with 'other language' skills are welcome too, as we need as many translations as we can get. If you are willing to spend a little time helping to improve UserBase please visit the Tasks and Tools page.

History

UserBase began in the summer of 2008. It was initially conceived as a showcase for KDE applications. To some extent this is still evident in the way applications are grouped, to help you find the application most likely to suit your purpose. Soon, however, various Hints and Tips sections began to appear. This is an area where general users can most easily make a first contribution, as it is often a very short entry. Most users, at some time, find a keyboard shortcut, a little-known feature, a "different" way of doing something, that would prove to be of value to others. We encourage you to add your discoveries.

In 2009 the KWord developer, Thomas Zander, had the idea that application manuals could be written on UserBase. Perhaps he was a little before his time, or perhaps the idea of developing from an older version to a new one, where the change from KDE 3.x to 4.x was embraced, was just too big a step, but it was a foreshadow of things to come. 2010 saw the first manuals being developed on UserBase.

Languages

It was always the intention that UserBase should be translated into as many languages as possible. In reality it proved a little difficult to maintain. In 2010 work began on moving all translations to a new system, developed by Siebrand Mazeland and Niklas Laxström of Translatewiki.net. This system allows both professional translation and amateurs with reasonable language knowledge to adopt pages for translation to their language. A single page allows a translator to monitor changes that affect his translated pages. You are invited to help us build a truly international resource for all users.

UserBase and KDE

UserBase is hosted on a KDE server, and is actively supported by the KDE community. It is not, however, the voice of KDE in any legal sense, nor is any other responsibility implied.

Contact Us

The administrative volunteers of UserBase may be contacted in a number of ways, including via Talk or Discussion pages in UserBase, on IRC at irc.freenode.net#kde-www or by email at [email protected].

-==Cos'è UserBase==
+==The nature of UserBase==
-'''UserBase''' è un contenitore per informazioni dedicate all'utente relative a qualsiasi elemento di un rilascio di KDE. È un wiki scritto da volontari e modificabile da qualsiasi utente registrato. Come tale, anche se viene posta attenzione, non è possibile garantire l'accuratezza di ogni voce. Il tuo contributo è benvenuto, particolarmente se relativo a suggerimenti e consigli per migliorare l'esperienza utente. Sono i benvenuti anche quelli che conoscono 'altre lingue' dato che abbiamo bisogno di tutte le traduzioni possibili. Se vuoi investire un po' di tempo ad aiutare a migliorare '''UserBase''', visita la pagina [[Tasks_and_Tools|Attività e strumenti]].

-==Storia==
+==History==
-'''UserBase''' è nato nell'estate del 2008. È stato inizialmente concepito come una vetrina per le applicazioni KDE. In una certa misura ciò è ancora evidente nel modo con cui sono raggruppate le applicazioni con lo scopo di aiutarti a trovarle, piuttosto che per soddisfare un determinato scopo. Presto, comunque, iniziarono ad apparire sezioni Consigli e suggerimenti. Questa è un'area in cui i comuni utenti possono molto facilmente dare un primo contributo dato che spesso sono voci molto brevi. La maggior parte degli utenti, ad un certo punto, trovano una scorciatoia da tastiera, una funzione poco conosciuta, un modo "differente" per fare qualcosa che potrebbe essere utile ad altri. Ti incoraggiamo ad aggiungere le tue scoperte.

-Nel 2009 Thomas Zander, lo sviluppatore di KWord, ha ipotizzato che i manuali delle applicazioni potessero essere scritti su '''UserBase'''. Forse era ancora un po' presto o forse l'idea di passare da una vecchia versione ad una nuova, mentre si era impegnati nel passaggio da KDE 3.x a 4.x, era semplicemente un passo troppo grande, ma prefigurò il passaggio successivo. Il 2010 ha visto lo sviluppo dei primi manuali su '''UserBase'''.

-==Lingue==
+==Languages==
-C'è sempre stata l'intenzione di tradurre '''UserBase''' in tutte le lingue possibili. In realtà ciò si è rivelato un po' difficile da mantenere. Nel 2010 è iniziato il lavoro di spostamento di tutte le traduzioni ad un nuovo sistema, sviluppato da Siebrand Mazeland e Niklas Laxström di Translatewiki.net. Questo sistema permette sia ai traduttori di professione che ai nuovi contributori con una ragionevole conoscenza della lingua di adottare pagine da tradurre nella loro lingua. Una singola pagina consente ad un traduttore di controllare le modifiche che riguardano le sue pagine tradotte. Sei invitato ad aiutarci a costruire una risorsa veramente internazionale per tutti gli utenti.
