Cool Site

I think your site really rocks. How can I help? --exampleuser 11:25, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

What are your interests? --danimo 11:30, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

I read mailing lists a lot so I could help out with FAQ collection. --exampleuser 11:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

And now for the actual questions:

Content from http://wiki.kde.org/

Will http://wiki.kde.org/ still be alive? Should the content of http://wiki.kde.org/ migrated to UserBase and TechBase? Now we have a lot of webpages and wikis. Some of them are outdated.

As I understand it, wiki.kde.org will eventually disappear, once all the useful content is migrated to either UserBase or TechBase. I think I've already migrated most of the UserBase level pages - so now I should go through w.k.o. and mark them as also in UserBase. It would be a good idea if devs could check their more tech pages and migrate those to TechBase. We're aiming for a clear division between user-centric and developer-centric, accepting that some advanced users will be on the brink of both. --annew 16:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

I will take care of some pages at w.k.o I created myself, move content and set links to userbase. --Mark Ziegler 12:49, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Icons on the main page

When you click on an icon on the main page (and presumably others too), you go to the mediawiki page about the icon, and not, as most people probably expect, to the title link. Well, at least, i expected that.

What you actually see when you do that is the information that is stored on the UserBase image gallery. I suspect that that is a built-in, and we can't change it, but I will find out. The clickable link is the bold title beside the icon. If you have any ideas for making that clearer, please tell us.--annew 17:45, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Apparently it is possible to link the icons, though it needs a plugin. Since we'll have to add a link to every icon on the site that may take a few days, but we'll get it fixed. Thanks for reporting the problem. --annew 19:08, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Multilanguage

Are there any plans to have pages in other language than english? In Techbase it is really nice to have it. Specially users are frequently using only there native language. Cheers. --Mark Ziegler 12:52, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

The multilanguage template is in place, see (and use) this template. --danimo 16:17, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
