Hi,
Over my time spent in XWiki I have had several discussions with Sergiu,
Marta, Marius, Eduard about making the editing process more collaborative
and rewarding for the contributors.
I finally made a proposal that encapsulated the following use cases:
- UC1: *Concurrent Editing *
- Allow multiple users to edit a page at the same time with local
versions and propose to merge any eventual conflicts after pressing
save
- UC2: *Viewing History Versions*
- When viewing the page history, be able to distinguish also the
magnitude of the contribution brought by the version
- UC3: *Viewing History Statistics*
- Be able to quickly scan how the content changed over time, how much
content each contributor invested and each contributor's role (editor,
commentator, attacher)
- UC4: *Viewing History Content Overview*
- Be able to blame someone for a certain portion of the content and
also visually scan the contribution's magnitude of each contributor
Although the discussions also contained more elaborate/fun topics (like
reputation mechanisms for contributors, achievements, etc.) this proposal
covers just the mentioned use cases.
You can view the proposal at:
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/CollaborativeEditing
Feedback or other suggestion that match the purpose ("By rewarding
participation, the contributors will feel appreciated and will want to
contribute more.") of this proposal are welcomed.
Thanks,
Caty
