| == Techbase problems and what I'm going to do about them == | | == New cleanup == |
| 2011-11-14: I'm frustrated as hell trying to figure out a problem with KDE (Strigi not indexing my stuff), and TechBase is ''not'' helping.
| | I managed to get set up for KDE development in 2020 or so and made a few fixes to Skrooge and Baloo/kfilemetadata. Returning to development in 2022, I found the same confusing mess of links to techbase, userbase, community, develop, etc. pages. So I've started to clean up techbase. |
|
| |
|
| Some wiki woes also apply to userbase.
| | * https://techbase.kde.org/KDE_Frameworks - is this obsolete now we have |
| | https://develop.kde.org/docs/use/kxmlgui/ (latter URL looks wrong but it's all about KDE Frameworks). |

| === Service page problems === | | === KDEDevelopers group rights needed === |
| The Nepomuk blog's [http://nepomuk.kde.org/node/2 Documentation] page has a Strigi Service link that goes to [[Development/Tutorials/Metadata/Nepomuk/StrigiService]]
| | I can't clean up these pages until I'm added to the [[Special:ListUsers|KDEDevelopers]] group: |
| unfortunately this suffers from the same problems as the blog's Documentation page
| | * [[Development/Tools]] - replace bad cgit link with invent.kde.org and lxr.kde.org |
| | * [[Getting Started]] - lots of fixes or delete/archive it |
| | * [[Projects]] - replace bad English Breakfast Network link with CI. |

| * BUG: doesn't say where the source is
| | == development == |
| * BUG: doesn't say where the API is
| | Compare krita-devbox with https://github.com/MarceloHMariano/kde-dev-container |
| * BUG: doesn't say what the service looks like. Is it a process I can look at? What's the process name
| |
|
| |
|
| * TODO: techbase needs to have {{tl:source}}, {{tl:api}}, {{tl:processname}} templates for creating links to these, and should have a series of form template that presents this sort of information about a project in an infobox:
| | == Old pages == |
| <nowiki>{{</nowiki>service| source= | api= | processname= | bugtracker= | kdemodule= | blog= }}
| | * [[/old user page]] from 2011 (!!) |
| | |
| TODO: the split between userbase and techbase is dubious. I'm a user, but I want to go beyond the user documentation. You're just going to duplicate information like the processname, the blog, the bug tracker and the kdemodule in two wikis.
| |
| | |
| BUG: WTF happened to [[Getting Started]]? It used to have "Getting the source", now that's gone!
| |
| | |
| === Techbase minor bugs ===
| |
| BUG: [[Template:Info]] is undocumented! Use <nowiki><noinclude> </noinclude></nowiki> to document what templates do!
| |
| | |
| BUG: [[Help:Contents]] says to use
| |
| <nowiki><span class="bsBugLink bsError bsError-NoConnection">{{bug|123456}}</span></nowiki>
| |
| surely this HTML formatting junk should be part of a template, i.e. {{formatted_bug|xxx}}
| |
| | |
| BUG: Template:Template has a silly confusing warning
| |
| "If this page is not already in the "Template" namespace, it should probably be migrated to that location."
| |
| | |
| Instead, someone should just periodically look at [[WhatLinksHere/Template:Template]] and see if pages outside Category:Template are using it.
| |
| | |
| BUG: pull in [[Template:Tl]] from Wikipedia, so that instead of fiddling with <nowiki>{{</nowiki> you can use e.g. {{tl|bug}} to generate a nicely-formatted <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:bug|bug]]}} which is also a link to a template.
| |
| | |
| | |
| === techbase interwiki issues ===
| |
| [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:Interwiki|interwiki prefixes]] let you link between wikis. (That first link is an example of one, <tt><nowiki>[[mediawikiwiki:</nowiki>''Some link''</tt> generates an external link to an article on mediawiki.or. But the [http://techbase.kde.org/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=interwikimap interwiki prefixes on techbase] have some problems:
| |
| | |
| * It should be easy to link from one wiki to another, using [userbase:http://userbase.kde.org/Special:MyLanguage/Quick Start], but it isn't set up.
| |
| | |
| * There is a bug prefix, e.g. [[bug:1234|1234]], but why is it <tt>language="ᨅᨔ ᨕᨘᨁᨗ"</tt> attribute? Maybe that's why on userbase this doesn't do anything?
| |
| * Why is there an empty bugs prefix, e.g.[[bugs:1234|1234]] ?
| |
| * techbase and userbase have different interwiki maps, e.g. techbase has no wikipedia prefix, but userbase does e.g. [[wikipedia:Git]]?!

| ==== Layout bugs ====
| |
| I think all these bugs are in the Chihuahua skin, and they all apply to userbase.kde.org as well.
| |
| | |
| BUG: In three-column listings like [[Category:Template]] , the techbase wiki skin makes the listing overlap the right-hand "Share your Knowledge" column.
| |
| | |
| BUG: In revision history the

| crashes into the light header with [View the content page] [Discussion about the content page] icons.
| |
| | |
| BUG: justified text looks bad in a narrow window. Allow ragged right column
| |
| | |
| BUG: when you select, the highlight color makes highlighted text look ''identical'' to a link. Try it, select this text and link [[Schedules]] and this text. You can't tell!
| |
| | |
| MAYBE: pre text just goes on and on off the right side. Consider using the wrap attribute of pre so that stuff wraps.
