Dougbeal have you edited Wikipedia?
#
dougbeal
tantek: gRegorLove created the schedule links yesterday, if I'm understanding correctly
#
dougbeal
tantek: oh, no
#
Zegnat
E.g. /photo is definitely a living document, but is it still fair to call it a stub?
#
aaronpk
what is a stub?
#
Loqi
A stub is an article that is brand new or considered incomplete by the authors/contributors, based on opinion or arbitrary measure https://indieweb.org/stub
#
aaronpk
"arbitrary measure"
#
aaronpk
so they are all stubs and not stubs at the same time
#
Zegnat
Yeah, I read the definition we have. And it leaves me wondering about living pages like /photo or pages like /h-cite that feel pretty complete.
#
Zegnat
Without a Talk page, it is hard to know why a page author still considers something a stub
#
sknebel
I'd guess in most cases it's just left over (e.g. I think Loqi adds it to dfns created?)

check out the quality of typical non-stub Wikipedia pages. then compare to any IndieWeb page you think is not a stub. note the wide differences
#
tantek__
we discussed redesigining the home page to have onboarding paths to multiple audience, indieweb users, wordpress folks, and developers.
#
tantek__
if you take the perspective of any one of those specific audiences who has never been to an indieweb page before, then it becomes pretty obvious why most pages are stubs
#
tantek__
does the page make sense to an indieweb user and help them understand why something matters? does the page make sense to someone using wordpress and how they can improve their blog? does the page make sense to developers and provide a quickly understandable reason why they should care and how to implement it with examples?
#
Zegnat
Those questions are great tantek! Should probably be added on /stub as the general goals for making something a non-stub
[schmarty] joined the channel

Zegnat, I think /wikify addresses some of that

dougbeal, great! I've seen a custom (I think gRegorLove might have started it?) of leaving a link to the wiki page on an etherpad when it's been archived
#
tantek__
dougbeal check https://etherpad.indieweb.org/undo for an example
#
tantek__
(we leave a summary of when/where the session was and link to notes, which leaves nice little summary history in the etherpad when topics are discussed across indiewebcamps)
#
tantek__
IDK if we've formalized this but I've seen it work well in practice
#
dougbeal
tantek__: is there a page were it is formalized? If not, maybe a quick checklist so anyone could pick it up :)
#
dougbeal
tantek__: should I clear out the content as well?
#
tantek__
most of the content - hence why I pointed out https://etherpad.indieweb.org/undo as an example
#
tantek__
I don't know if / where it is formalized. I think gRegorLove came up with the custom
#
dougbeal
tantek__: some of the pages seem resistant to loading after I have closed them :(
#
tantek__
etherpads? or wiki?

dougbeal
tantek__: etherpads, worked fine in differnt browser

did you try Firefox? :)
