I would like to be given sufficient access to http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories that I may copy the raw text to a SubPage of my HomePage. I propose to edit the links on that SubPage and submit it for review by anyone who may have sufficient knowledge to validate my changes. I have yet to work with the RPM Package Manager, so I will be making edits that need to be reviewed

My wiki username is PatrickDGarvey. I would like to help clean up the link rot that seems to have infected the wiki. May I please start with edit access to my homepage? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As well as the recognition of the reality that there are a

I did the last major rewrite of the AdditionalRepos page, in large part because of issues we see repeatedly on the IRC channels. The repos placed in the "known problem" section are there for a good reason -- they replace base packages by default, or they're poorly maintained, leading to security issues. Or both. Atomic falls squarely into the former category -- it replaces key parts

SerNet has en pages on their site: http://www.SerNet.de/en/samba/ Since I am maintaining the base (en) page page of http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories shouldn't the en SerNet home page be the reference in the SerNet paragraph? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Patrick, looks fine to me. Thanks for the work -- when I did a major revision I tried to remove some of the rot and got tired of trying, along with refactoring the page in general.

Could someone please replace the contents of http://wiki.centos.org/FrontPage with the contents of http://wiki.centos.org/PatrickDGarvey/FrontPage ? In the What is CentOS? section, I have changed, "The CentOS Project mainly change packages ..." to "The CentOS Project mainly changes packages ..." That is "change" is now "changes". I have no problem with you

OK, folks. You're doing a great job of describing the current milieu with a rough description of some best practices. Now how about some specific sources you personally used to learn your craft that we can use likewise? PatrickD

Please read this in the spirit of my understanding what the CentOS community norms are. I fault neither of those mentioned for doing what they have done. I just want to understand how we all are documenting the CentOS distribution. In http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#head-42b3d8e26400a106851a61aebe5c2cca54dd79e5 the standard for the wiki username is established as FirstnameLastname. In
