OK, let's have an experiment, I created ./dokuwiki and made both oui and darkcity as admins.

Hope it works (no need to PM me if the new install works).

Good luck!

Is this some kind of fresh wiki start? Haven't really followed, but:

potential. perhaps a script to move over all the current wiki pages over for a start.

then make it look nicer.

I think that the problem with the wikkia now, is that stuff arnt organize well and there is no manpower, almost everything is done by coolpup.

I think that a fresh start to the wiki will be nice.

Also, the current wikkia seems to have a bad search system

Okay, so now we can experiment ; -)

I was hoping for discussion and agreement, one wiki would be the best solution.

@Oui can you post some links of the DokuWiki's that have translation installed?

There another wikka here

http://pupweb.org/wikka/

looks out of date - suggestion merge info from pupweb to puppylinux.org?

I can help shifting the information over to the new wikka. I suggest adding a Category to the old wiki CategoryMigratedToNewWiki . Then when information has been moved to the old wiki page can be tagged.

This would allow an easy way to check the progress of page transfer. I will need login to the old wiki add the category tag.

The current wiki has a few flaws-

-Language support

-Inconsistent style

-Many pages missing explanation of subject, going straight into a technical how to.

I have an idea for language support, but I need to find code that can access and modified the current URL address.

Grand. I won't shift things if not relative, just add a comment to that effect.

How do I get a login to the old wiki?

By code I meant java/php code that could grab the browsers current URL, rather than WikiCode.

Thanks

Here's the idea, don't know how feasible it is - might require patching wikka

having a bar somewhere on the wiki page with lauguage links

[en] [fr] [de] [es] etc

click on a language other than english would append a something to the URL

from English-

http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyVersion

to

http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyVersion-fr
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppyVersion-de

from another language; minus the appended then add language code or none if english

if the page didn' t exist the wiki would prompt user to create it.

this way you can synchronize different language and make it obvious where language pages are missing.
