The Draw Guide is mostly not wikified at all (only the first chapter has been done). It starts here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Draw_Guide
Use the Mediawiki extension to export to wiki format from the ODT chapters. Then delete all the unwanted stuff at the beginning of the file (the TOC etc) and use TJ's macros to clean up the tip/note/caution tables. Nino's notes should give a good idea of how to deal with the images. HOWEVER, in most cases you do not need to export and upload all of the images anew because most of them are the same as for the Draw 2 guide. So you can go to the Draw 2 pages, find the file names for the images, and reuse them in the Draw 3 guide. Now log on to the wiki, go to the wiki page linked above, and look at the source to see how the page's display name and the previous and next links are coded; amend these as needed for the new chapter. Now click on the chapter name in the right-hand list, and paste in the text. After saving the page, check to see which images do not display. Click on those filenames and upload the relevant image. Other tweaks will be necessary, especially for numbered lists with interspersed figures, but that gets a lot of the work out of the way. --Jean On Sat, 2010-12-04 at 14:54 -0500, Preston Bernstein wrote: > I will attempt to wikify the 3.2 book.
