How You Can Help

Right now, we are organizing the documentation that has been copied from the old manual to this wiki. Some of it, we are recategorizing. Some of it, we are updating to better describe SMF 2.0. Some of it, we are preparing to translate. Even if you have just a few minutes to spare, you might be able to help. Every little bit helps your fellow SMF users. Thanks!

Top priorities

  1. Organize information about Customizations (mods and themes) and writing code
    • Recategorize stuff in Category:Developing SMF and Category:Developing_SMF and related categories to do with mods and themes. Some documents are over-categorized. Some are under-categorized.
    • It might make sense to use the categories and boards at Into the Depths of SMF as guides to categorization.
    • Finally, we might have some navigation tools like we've used in the Main Page, and a "Developers Main Page", too.
  2. Participate in the List of all documents to be moved to wiki
  3. Fix up the articles in Online Manual:List of BBC articles to be converted. Cross them off when you are done fixing them. Done!

Other stuff that will need to be done eventually

  • Check Category:Needs_HTML_cleanup for articles with ugly HTML messes. Clean them up
  • Find articles that need HTML cleanup, and give them the {{Cleanup html}} tag. That will make it easier to find them and clean them up.
  • Help improve documents that are already here -- making them easier to read, and adding the new features information that is not there yet.
  • Help write help for people who want to help write documentation
  • See the list of files that need to be created at Category:Please_Create
  • See the list of all pages at Special:AllPages, or choose a random page. See if it needs any work.
  • Right now, some doc helpers have made it a project to move and checkall the doclinks FAQs. Done! Thanks!

New Tools

Search-and-Replace Tools -- while editing an article, find Custom regex below the Scripts heading at the bottom of the left side bar. You can do multiple search-and-replace, and use regex if you want.

Did you know that the Semantic MediaWiki extension is in use here? It was used to create the Alphabetical list of all bulletin board codes, as well as the Glossary of SMF Terminology. Much more could be done with the Semantic MediaWiki, once we figure it out
