Quim Gil <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #8 from Quim Gil <[email protected]> 2012-09-18 16:22:09 UTC --- Interesting idea. Can we agree first on who do we want to attract to do what? Depending on the answer the destination page might be very different. The examples provided by MZMcBride refer to app developers willing to use the API: - https://dev.twitter.com/ - https://developers.facebook.com/ - http://developer.wordnik.com/ It's the most common use case out there and it could be well represented with a rather standard "Developers" link after "Mobile View". The most appropriate destination for this link seems to be http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page - a page that could be fine tuned and has the additional advantage of being already translated to several languages. Other potential audiences could be - Technical contributors to Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. - Contributors to Mediawiki and related projects. But I'd keep a clean call for app developers from the Wikipedia template, without forcing them to dive deep into open source contributions and the many ways for extending and hacking MediaWiki. For that there is the "Powered by Mediawiki" banner, and we can always promote those alternatives from the API page itself. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
