Regole ed etichetta del Fedora wiki

Questa pagina stabilisce alcune linee guida generali per la wiki del Fedora Project.

Vi sono pochi semplici punti che dovrebbero essere sempre seguiti quando si fanno cambiamenti alla wiki. Di seguito vi sono alcuni esempi. In generale, siate educati ed utilizzate il buon senso. Rifiutarsi di seguire i consigli di queste linee guida e causare problemi è un ottimo sistema per far si che i vostri privilegi vengano revocati. Se avete domande, potete rivolgervi a #fedora-websites su freenode (o al vostro team di traduzione di riferimento NdT).

Presentatevi

Prima di editare una qualunque pagina, per cortesia, presentatevi, aggiungendo le informazioni che ritenete più opportune per descrivere chi siete nella vostra pagina wiki.Dopo che avrete registrato il vostro nome nela wiki, avrete automaticamente disponibile una pagina wiki personale raggiungibile all'URL http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:<username>, dove <username> viene sostituito dal nome del vostro account FAS (Fedora Account System). Potete raggiungere facilmente la vostra pagina wiki anche solo cliccando sul vostro nome utente situato nell'angolo in alto a destra di ogni pagina wiki.

Per esempio, date un'occhiata a alcune pagine wiki dei contributori Fedora.

Pagine utente obsolete da Moin
Si richiede che le vecchie pagine provenienti da Moin aventi stile NomeCognome vengano sostituite dal nuovo formato MediaWiki. Se state partecipando da poco al Fedora Project ed avete letto da qualche parte che dovreste utilizzare il formato NomeCognome, per cortesia contattate Ian e mettetelo a conoscenza su dove avete visto quell'informazione.

Assicuratevi di citare almeno il vostro indirizzo email e, se siete spesso su IRC, anche il vostro nick IRC ed il canale dove trovarvi più frequentemente.

Tenete sempre sotto controllo le pagine che create o editate

E' importante seguire i cambiamenti delle pagine che avete creato o editato, in modo da potervi coordinare con gli altri contributori al contenuto della wiki. Gli editori di pagine wiki spesso aggiungono note alle pagine Wiki al fine di trasmettere informazioni ad ogni altro editore come fosse parte di una struttura di lavoro collaborativo, e ciò aiuta a mantenere traccia delle modifiche.

Potete trovare il link osservati speciali nella barra in alto a destra della pagina una volta che vi siete loggati.

Non abbiate paura

Siate sicuri quando effettuate cambiamenti. I cambiamenti Wiki sono tracciati e possono essere riportati al punto precedente quando necessario. Ciò però non significa che potete comportarvi in modo incauto, specialmente quando effettuate significativi cambiamenti a documenti importanti.

Per maggiori informazioni sul non avere paura, date un'occhiata a [|Non aver paura di fare modifiche su Wikipedia].

Avoid unnecessary edits of pages that discuss legal issues

Queste pagine sono state scritte con attenzione, così come le parole scelte attentamente. Quando modificate questi documenti, di solito è meglio chiedere una revisione prima di applicare cambiamenti. Per assistenza, potete contattare il Fedora Advisory Board.

Do not provide details of forbidden items

Do not add any information that violates the law. Remember that the Fedora Project is an entity in the United States, and is governed by its laws. Avoid linking to or adding information about software that is not free and open source or that is legally encumbered. If you think you have a special exception, bring it to the attention of the Websites team for discussion. See the ForbiddenItems page for examples of items that should be avoided.

Bring questions to the Websites team for discussion. If needed, they can get the official word.

Be careful when editing key guides or pages

Large and important guides, such as the Packaging Guidelines , are generally managed by a specific individual or small group. It is best to work with them when you feel that changes are needed.

Important pages, like the FedoraMain or Download pages, are the first thing that many visitors see. Changes to such pages should generally be left to experienced contributors. If you feel that something on such a page should be altered, bring the issue to the Websites team for discussion.

Do not edit pages just to edit pages

Senseless edits should be avoided. Making an alteration to a page just to put your name in the edit log is unacceptable. There are plenty of pages (most of them, in fact) that have real errors that can be corrected. Instead of making pointless edits, such as removing or adding whitespace or changing links from fedoraproject.org to www.fedoraproject.org (the former is preferred), try finding errors in spelling, grammar or punctuation that can be corrected. Also, when correcting a small error, mark "This is a minor edit" using the appropriate checkbox before you save it.

Avoid renaming pages or moving content without coordination

Wiki pages are generally referred to and linked to from various other locations. It is important that you coordinate with the appropriate groups before moving content or renaming existing pages. It would be better to avoid doing that without strong rationale. If you wish to discuss moving a particular item, bring your questions to the Websites team.

Deleting Pages

Wiki pages that are no longer needed can be tagged for deletion by adding {{Delete|Reason}} to the beginning of the page, this gives Wiki Administrators the ability to ensure that important or archivable content is not lost.

Follow the ideals that Fedora holds important

For example, try to remain desktop-neutral and user-friendly, especially for non-technical users who are new to Linux and to Fedora. Users may use GNOME, KDE, the console, or some other environment. Try to keep that in mind when writing instructions. Make sure that Fedora's devotion to free and open source technology is also represented properly.

Sign your attachments

When you attach a file to a wiki page, you should create a detached signature with your GPG key. Some file formats, such as RPM packages, support GPG keys, in which case you do not need to create a detached signature -- a signature in the file will be enough. A detached signature can be attached to the page alongside the original attachment, or can be included in the page itself.

GPG signatures allow others who download your file to verify that it came from you and has not been modified or corrupted. They do not violate your privacy in any way, they simply allow others to have confidence in the origin of your files.

Images and simple documents are safe to leave without a signature, but there would be no harm in adding one anyway to verify that you were the author.

If you do not have a GPG key or want to learn more, see the Cryptography page.

Review your changes for errors

Whether you are a skilled writer, or your English skills are not strong, invite someone else to review. Well-written documents are important to Fedora's image. Even the best writers are prone to typos or other errors. Take a moment to review your changes to catch small errors. Use the Show preview button when editing a page to check your syntax.

Fedora is a community

When writing content, for the wiki or elsewhere, remember that Fedora is a community. We operate as one, unified group, moving towards common goals. We do not need to distinguish one group or class against another. For example, there is no need to distinguish between contributors who work for Red Hat and those who do not. All contributors are part of the same community. There will be cases where classification is necessary, but it can be avoided otherwise.

If you aren't sure about something, feel free to ask

Other community members will be happy to assist you. The #fedora-websites channel on freenode is the perfect place to discuss the wiki or other Fedora websites.

Watch your pages, and other ones, too

Two details make a Wiki successful as an open content collaboration tool. First is being able to watch content you are responsible for, to make certain it stays true to its mission. Second is being able to watch other content develop, grow, and occasionally need your help.

To watch any page on the wiki, after logging in, click the watch link in the tab bar at the top of a page. It should change to unwatch after it has finished. If a page has unwatch at the top, you are already watching that page. You can click unwatch to unwatch a page.

To receive emails for every edit, go to my preferences (at the top of the page by your name) and make sure to check the appropriate boxes in the User profile tab, under Email.

Using Special:Watchlist

Special:Watchlist (available by clicking my watchlist at the top of each page when you are logged in) displays pages you are currently watching. For more information on how to use this special page, please the manual page at Mediawiki.org.

We are now maintaining a stand-alone Watchlist_How-To to help Fedora contributors with specific suggestions and tools.

Summarize your changes (aka commit log message) -- this is the rule

We all need to be able to quickly glance at a change and know the substance of it. A full diff is not always available. You must supply a summary of your change (Summary: field when editing). This is akin to a changelog message. Explain what you did and why, as well as other useful links and details.

If you choose to not put in a summary, it should be the rare exception. One reason is when doing a minor edit. In that case, be sure to check This is a minor edit when saving.
