Everyone, We had a successful wiki cleanup day although there is still much more to do. Thanks to all the participated. Here are the details
There was more duplication information that even i expected. This was mostly because pages could not be found and so new pages were created. This issue snowballed for many years. There were a couple reasons why pages were not found: * overall navigation is not clean * pages had many levels deep of classification with no common thought to a classification that wasn't overlapping with other classifications. * automatic indexing appears to not be working. This probably happened after the move from avaya To this end, we decided to * classification - start out with only a few, mutually exclusive classifications. I did restore a few sub-classifications for things phone and gateway vendors. * navigation - use "labels" to group similar pages that in different classifications but are related. Examples: security, diagnostics, polycom,... What's left to do * there are still many pages that have not been moved into the proper classification. These show in the navigation starting below "Testimonials" * there are still many pages where old information has not been removed * there are still several pages that have similar content that need to be consolidated * confluence still isn't automatically indexing new pages. i don't know what's wrong i ran thru a number of fixes other folks have reported works. this still needs to be fixed Even once the above work is done, we need an ongoing process to enforce classifications and remove duplication. I created a wiki team http://wiki.sipfoundry.org/display/sipXecs/Documentation+Team who is responsible for keeping the wiki in proper health. Volunteers will help recognize duplication or improper classification and stamp it out early. That could be you? If you cannot find your pages, please do not create a new one, try searching for it. If that doesn't work, try browsing for it in the pages list. if that doesn't work, then maybe it's time create a new page. feel free to email me as well in case there was a mistake in the cleaning process. _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
