Hello all, I now created a repository[1] with the content automatically extracted from mediawiki with a script. The extracted result is very bad but I started cleaning it see commit[2]. This need to be moved to the website git namespace, but until this is done I granted every KDE developer push access. I would be very grateful if some other peoples could help clean some generated pages (you only need knowledge in markdown) for inspiration you can look at [2]
And it would be nice if the rkward devs could provide a new version of https://rkward.kde.org/File:RKWard_060_450.png (using breeze theme and icons and not from 2012). Let's try to update this website very soon since the mediawiki version is still 1.19 (EOL 2015) Cheers Carl Schwan https://carlschwan.eu [1]: https://invent.kde.org/carlschwan/rkward-kde-org [2]: https://invent.kde.org/carlschwan/rkward-kde-org/commit/f4a1ee44cf0d753c41cdf6cfc8a87ae6cee7fcae ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, November 12, 2019 7:27 PM, Ben Cooksley <bcooks...@kde.org> wrote: > On Sun, Nov 10, 2019 at 4:10 AM Thomas Friedrichsmeier > thomas.friedrichsme...@ruhr-uni-bochum.de wrote: > > > Hi Ben, > > Hi Thomas, > > > On Sat, 9 Nov 2019 12:50:07 +1300 > > Ben Cooksley bcooks...@kde.org wrote: > > > > > - RKWard (rkward.kde.org): This site is currently based on Mediawiki, > > > which is substantially more difficult to maintain and keep updated > > > compared to a site built using Hugo, Jekyll, Wordpress or Drupal. > > > > > > > > > Given that the site was last updated back in early 2018, i'd like to > > > make this static, and should updates need to be made in the future the > > > content can then be converted at that time into something more easy to > > > maintain. > > > > please not static.
