similar to: Merging 2 contribute pages

Hi, Going over the wiki some more I noticed that the GettingHelp and Documentation page contain the same type of information and could be merged (and reduced) as well. On the FrontPage it is called "Learn" (which I like) and points to the Documentation page. On top it says "Help" and points to the GettingHelp page. I would prefer to keep the Documentation page (or rename

Hi, I removed the above page before, but I saw Russ added it again. Let me explain why I think that page needs to die. It offers little insight to how one can become a developer. What is a CentOS developer ? That's the first confusing part. The page answers the question with a: "show competence and things will happen" We have a much better Contribute page that highlights ways

Hi all, I've updated our Team page a bit, added a table for everyone already there. Now I still don't like the fact that we have the distinction between the Core members (whatever that means) and the others. Some have a @centos.org email address, we could use that as a distinction ? I do think we need to make that page exclusive to people that have some sort of responsibility, and

Hi, I have been experimenting a bit with lua.c32 and I have created a small lua.c32 wiki page at: http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Lua.c32 With my minimal knowledge about Lua (and the inconvenience of not being able to copy&paste or edit scripts) I discovered that the dmi module has 2 functions (supported, gettable) and a syslinux module with 1 function (run_command). Do we

Hi, Can we implement a solution in MoinMoin so that titles in articles can be referenced ? I wanted to link to the 'Contribute to the wiki' subtitle in a blog article, but the link looks like: http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#head-42b3d8e26400a106851a61aebe5c2cca54dd79e5 while I would have expected something like this: http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#contribute-to-the-wiki

Hi, I think I found a problem with syslinux where if you have an entry in the syslinux config file (eg. linux) and you type some additional parameters on the boot-prompt (eg. noacpi) the last character of the prompt is cut off (and missing from /proc/cmdline). This does not seem to happen for the append line in the config file, only for additional parameters on the boot prompt. (I guess it

Hi, Let me first stress that the success of the wiki is tight to how many users find it as a resource. And that users will only find the wiki for their problems if it has a higher PageRank. (I am using PageRank as an example, other search engines would do better if we can implement some changes overall.) If we take the HowTos/Laptops/Wireless page as an example, the page is not part of the

Hi, Can we use the same image for external links on the wiki as we are using for Trac ? It is much less obtrusive in pieces of text. A gray box with arrow instead of a colorful globe. -- -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]

Hi, I have added a Download page to the wiki. Feel free to improve it (but please do not make it more complex than it already is :-)) I would prefer to make it even more simple, but hate to have the architecture-selection done by DirectoryIndex. Also the link behind each architecture looks awful and may scare people away. It would be much better to have a single link that automatically

Hi, I am pleased to announce the first edition of the bi-weekly CentOS newsletter which we dubbed "CentOS Pulse". This first issue centers around improving communication within the CentOS community and how that relates to the CentOS Promo SIG. We also look at the recent announcements regarding the CentOS LiveCD and the CentOS Directory Server. And dive into interesting community

Hi dag! Thx for your reply! So, there will be no release in the near future of centos 5 for Z? At the moment we got a realy small z/linux installation, but i love it. Keeping the TCO as low as we can was necessary to satisfy the decision-maker. So we decided to choos a free linux distribution, centos was a good decicion we thougt. (redhat / fedora was always my favorite flavor *g*) It would

Hi, Is it possible to rename the CentOS Events tab to simply Events ? The other tabs do not include CentOS either. For a published article today I required a desktop screenshot. However on 1024x768 with a non-fullscreen browser at wiki.centos.org, the number of tabs required me to make the browser-width larger than I liked it to be. Renaming "CentOS Events" to "Events"

Hi all, Now that there is an effort underway to improve the look/theme of the Wiki. I would like to discuss the content of the wiki. IMO there are too many links on the frontpage. With a new theme, the News/Events items on top can go into a sidebar, so that will be taken care of the news items. I will not discuss them here. But currently, there is little structure in all the links/titles on the

Hi guys, I would like to reorganise the general CentOS FAQ. It now has 20 questions about a lot of different things that can be structure much better. I would like to add some questions, but lacking any structure... I would like to make a distinction between the following subjects: - General questions about the CentOS project Answers about what the project is about, why the project

Hi, Something which bothered me a few times in the past, the SyntaxReference link when you are editing a page points to: centoswiki/SyntaxReference That page did not exist, luckily it suggested the real location: SyntaxReference so it was not a real problem. But it may confuse other people in the future. So what I did for now was created the non-existing page and redirected it to

I would appreciate if you could: - Show the original location of the English version in your translated slides - Show the original location in every presentation based on these slides - Send improvements to me so

Hi, I constantly find myself fighting the wiki syntax. Today the problem is that I want a TableOfContents that does NOT include the page title. To be honest, I do not understand why the page title (level 1) is included in the TOC, and why it does not appear in the head-title (<head><title>). I found with Google that there is a syntax like: [[TableOfContents(4,2)]] instead of

Hi, Probably too late for the main tracks, but it would be nice to see a syslinux-related presentation at FOSDEM 2012. There are a few tracks where syslinux fits in (Configuration and Systems Management, Embedded, Distribution ?) so it shouldn't be hard to get one or more slots. I enjoyed Peter's presence two years ago and it lead to an uptake of the project (I remember Erwan

Hi, A few things I would like to see fixed in the short term: + Simplifying the frontpage. I gave a rationale on my blog why I think the frontpage should be more simple an structured. You can see the proposal here: http://wiki.centos.org/FrontPageProposal Ralph already criticized that there is too much text and I tend to agree. I would prefer to see an image instead and

That is a very good questions and I personally veel very sad that Red Hat chose to do this. RHEL5 (and CentOS 5) are based on development done on Fedora Core 6. Red Hat started off with Fedora Core 6 when creating
