Hi Sharan,
I thought about that, and I believe we should not add a new page but rather complete the Material+for+Branding+and+Marketing page by using what's
interesting in the General+Material+for+Branding+and+Marketing page and then drop it.
To answer Taher's message, I believe we face a mess and this remembers me http://www.howtomakesenseofanymess.com/ Sharan suggested, I stopped at
http://www.howtomakesenseofanymess.com/chapter/1/page/21/draw-your-mess/
I think the right attitude when facing a mess, is to CUT in it.
* We need to drop, or at least put a lot of wiki pages in archives.
* For that we could create a specific OFBiz archive space, not linked from the
other spaces.
* I also suggest to have only 2 other spaces, one completely open, where most
pages should be.
* And one only accessible to PMC (and committers?) where really sensible
information should be, these last pages should be very rare and only when
really needed.
Then we can improve the content of "Documentation" menu-link from http://ofbiz.apache.org/ . Notably
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Documentation+Index (hint: this is also kinda an answer to Taher)
Trying to improve navigation before cutting in the mess, will have a tendency
to fail... What do you think?

Hi Sharan,
I suggested at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/Material+for+Branding+and+Marketing?focusedCommentId=65865874#comment-65865874
to remove the page below because I tried yesterday to move the images from the page above to the one below. I wanted to merge the 2 pages, a reason
I afterwards renamed the page above. Another reason I afterwards renamed the page is because when in Confluence you put special characters, like
parenthesis, etc., in the title then you don't get a nice title for the page, but a number :/
But it's hard to *move* attachments in bulk in Confluence. You have to do it
one by one :/
So I tried to download them all and upload them back to the page below. But the process failed in the middle. You might also notice that it's hard
to *remove* attachments in bulk in Confluence. You have to do it one by one :/
That's why I suggested to put this page in archive (actually deleting it lets it in the space's trash
https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/delete-or-restore-a-page-139429.html) and to create a new one. I also tried to watch the Powerpoint there (on
WIndows using the the Powerpoint viewer!) but it failed, so there is nothing to keep there! I suggest to drop it and create a brand new page,
inspired by the page below, for the ideas you rightly suggested.
Thanks

Hi Everyone
We currently have a page in the wiki that was used initially for branding and
marketing but has now has a lot of broken links.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/General+Material+for+Branding+and+Marketing
The logo files don't need to be on this page as they are all available elsewhere. Rather than remove it I suggest that it could be tidied up and
that the page focus (and name) could be changed to make it into one that links to OFBiz white papers, OFBIz presentations, etc.
I'm not sure if we already have something like this or if it covered as part of OFBiz in the news but I think having this type of material
available could be good for newcomers. What do people think?
Thanks
Sharan
