That's a good point. There's also a copy at the LyX wiki, which you can
always get to through a link at the bottom of the sidebar. However, maybe
that link should get a more prominent location, let's say at the top of
the sidebar?
BUT, I also think that some of our LyX Wiki pages, while excellent,
sometimes contain a lot of extra formatting, like red and green text,
which is not necessary (strictly speaking). This is not a bad thing,
since it makes the pages beautiful and easy to read, but it also not
essential. I can see how that would be intimidating...
Hmm... I see your point. And I definitely agree that pretty formatting
isn't really necessary - it's the content that matters.
Anyway, would it make sense to place a small section early in the sidebar
that's for new users? Perhaps something like this:
New readers
* Wiki documentation
* Wiki sandbox
Eh... I'd probably answer GPL, but I have no real clue. This question also
concerns anything you simply write on the wiki. Here's the relevant text
that I put on the wiki a long time ago
http://wiki.lyx.org/Site/Copyrights
Not sure that it helps though, and maybe it needs to be expanded?
Wikipedia.org has the following page linked from every single entry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GNU_Free_Documentation_License
Is there a way to modify all of the wiki pages so that they link the
copyrights page you mention?
I've already added a link at the bottom of the sidebar with the text
"Copyrights" that points to this wiki page.
http://wiki.lyx.org/Site/Copyrights
If that's not prominent enough, just let me know where you think it'd look
good and I can move the link to that place.
