gRegor what is top4

Loqi A top4 page is a personal webpage where you can share your definitive ranked list of your top 3 favorites and an honorable mention https://indieweb.org/top4

#
gRegor top4 'what is' queries
#
gRegor Nice example! I really liked Jodorowsky's Dune, and adding The Sweatbox to my list!
#
[tantek] What is top 8?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "top 8" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "top 8 is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
gRegor hehe
#
gRegor wow, don't even mention "top 8" on /MySpace
#
[tantek] iOS Messages has a top 9
#
[tantek] They call it "pinning" conversations but there's a limit of 9 and they appear before the list of "most recently updated" convos
#
[artlung] I've been thinking about making at `top4` page for a few weeks. I was meh about it. Ultimately I like it. Kind of akin to Paul Ford's 6-word reviews of music. Designed to be short.

gRegor Nice

gRegor what is xslt
#
Loqi XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is a styling and transformation language for XML that some indieweb community members use to style their RSS feeds for human readability in browsers https://indieweb.org/XSLT
#
gRegor xslt << https://www.rss.style/ has a couple simple XSLT examples you can add to your RSS or Atom feed
#
Loqi ok, I added "https://www.rss.style/ has a couple simple XSLT examples you can add to your RSS or Atom feed" to the "See Also" section of /XSLT https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=107269&oldid=103478

burgeonlab Hi, IDK if this is the right place to ask this: when I'm making changes on indieweb.org, like editing my user page, or adding myself to a section of a wiki page (like people using Hugo), what is the correct commit message/summary of changes? There's a default `/* sectionName */`. Am I supposed to remove that and type the changes
#
burgeonlab (cont.) or add to that like: `/* sectionName: explain my changes */`? Thanks!
#
gRegor usually can leave those section and add a short note. The section makes it easier at a glance in the history to see which part of the page was updated
#
gRegor `/* section */ +me` is pretty common if you're adding yourself
#
gRegor It's pretty casual though, not a lot of hard and fast rules
#
burgeonlab Oh okay, I understand. I'll keep the section comment in the front and add my comment after. Do you mean, literally type "+me" for those adding myself to examples? or +userhandle?
#
burgeonlab thanks gRegor
#
gRegor Sometimes people don't even add a message for those, e.g. https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=Hugo&action=history The fact that it's an edit in the IndieWeb Examples section though makes it pretty clear what it is :)
#
burgeonlab OK!
#
gRegor I literally use "+me" yeah, but "adding myself" or similar is A OK
#
gRegor The summaries get more important if you're making some bigger changes, like improving paragraphs of text or moving things around.
#
gRegor And yep, this meta channel is perfect place to ask these questions :)
#
gRegor [artlung], very funny that the Terms headline for that site was "Top 21 Things You Are Agreeing to When You Use li.st" https://web.archive.org/web/20191114070846/https://li.st/terms

#
[tantek] lol the HN comments going deep on RSS is so classic
#
[tantek] What is Canon?
#
Loqi A /canon page is a page on your website that lists the things that have influenced you the most https://indieweb.org/Canon
#
[tantek] Here I thought it was a camera brand
#
[tantek] Probably don't need the uppercase redirect
#
[tantek] What are interests?
#
Loqi An interests page lists those things people are passionate about https://indieweb.org/interests
#
[tantek] If it's about things that influence(d) you why not call it that directly?
#
[tantek] "canon" usually means more like the true version of a story or "official" story vs fan stories
#
[tantek] What are influences?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "influences" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "influences is ____", a sentence describing the term)
