Changes

I don't know how to deal with spam = Comments on this wiki. Perhaps I could protect the main page, so spam is not the first thing you see. But then any change has to be proposed here or by mail to me. Any comments?[[Main Page]] =

perhaps it's contrary to someone's ideal of what a wiki should be, but what about requiring a user to register in order to make changes? --[[User:Adam|Adam]] 01:49, 5 May 2005 (CEST) : that does not help: bots are clever enough to create an account (that happened last time) --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] I would be happy for the front page to be restricted - shouldn't change so often anyway. Otherwise is there a possibility of having one of those human-only registration forms which requires typing the contents of a graphic, to stop the bots? I don't know how that might be implemented though. --[[User:Duncan|Duncan]] 12:23, 5 May 2005 (CEST) Right, I noticed that was a bot the last time, just after posting. Yeah, locking the main page would be another good step. Once I have my RSS client set up again, I can keep a closer watch on changes (again) so it's not just Patrick quashing the Spam. --[[User:Adam|Adam]] : OK, I have protected the main page. If you want to edit anything, please mail me, or put it here and I will paste it to the main page. [[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] == GIFs == Is it forbidden to upload GIFs? I wanted to upload one for the Animation page (I'm not sure if thatreally's a good idea anyway; it would be used to get a feeling of what approximately Adobe Reader is capable to do/limited to). I get a warning <i>".gif" is not a recommended image file format.</i>, but then nothing happened any further. --Thanks, [[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]] = Comments on [[Main Page]] =Please add a link to the 'thrid party page': Already there, but Hans got confused about its name. Left-side menu, in like the middle new look of 'garden', you see 'third party modules'. That is the correct page, but a nice upload interface is currently still missing. wiki! --[[User:TacoBraslau|TacoAlan]]

Mojca recently asked Under the 'News', it should be - On January 2, 2021 (in the changelog& not 2020) for comments on the reorganization , availability of the [[Main Page]]. It looks quite good to me, overall. The "how A not so short introduction to edit a Wiki pageConTeXt" should probably link to the existing v1.6 by Joaquín Ataz-López --[[HelpUser:EditingRamkumarkb|Ramkumar]] page, or perhaps directly to MediaWiki's Help:Editing page.

I do think a couple of the section headings should be changed. "Tips:fixed, Tricks, and Hacks" is becoming a storehouse of actual documentation as well as just small "tricks", and the name should reflect thatthanks [[User:Taco|Taco]] ([[User talk:Taco|talk]]) 08: something like "ConTeXt Documentation and How-To", maybe. "Help & Guidelines" should be "Wiki Help & Guidelines"59, so as to distinguish it from "ConTeXt help".13 January 2021 (CET)

It may also be useful to put "short explanations" next to the links, much as I've been doing in the [[From LaTeX to = General ConTeXt]] page. --[[User:Brooks|Brooks]] 02:49, 4 Sep 2005 (UTC) : Brooks, you wrote too much today ;) ! You cannot expect people to read all your comments!!! (I didn't even notice your posting here until I wanted to add something).<br>Yes, "How to edit a Wiki page" should certainly be merged with [[Help:Editing]]. I forgot that this page ever existed as it somehow disappeared from my view. [[Help:Contents]] should ugently be changed as well. (Feel free to do it.) : I thought that "Help & Guidelines" could be used for guidelines about writing to the mailing list as well, but it's true that it should be distinguished from ConTeXt help. I agree to add comments next to links (but what comments?).<br> Also, quite some stuff is still missing on the main page, the "Main ConTeXt Documentation and HowTo-s" needs to be reorganized and <b>Categories</b> should be defined, so that we can start categorizing the majority of pages (I had no idea what Categories to define for pages under "Visuals", "Structurals", "Inside ConTeXt" (which should probably better be defined as "Programming" or something similar), ...). Quite some "secondary pages" are missing (connecting the first page and actual articles, just like your [[From LaTeX to ConTeXt]], one page with [[Links]] is certainly missing). : Despite the generally accepted decision to lock the first page, I hope that I'm not violating the rules too much if I unlock it for two days (sorry, Patrick), so that you can improve it by yourself if you want. If anyone spams the first page in the meantime, I take the responsibility to remove the spam from it (as soon as I come online).:--[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]] 19:37, 4 Sep 2005 (UTC):: No problem at all, go ahead and feel free to unlock it. BTW: I really like the look of the new page, but I still need some time to make real comments --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] 10:55, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC)Questions =

:: Thanks! This is not the place to ask general questions about ConTeXt. I think I'll make If you have a copy of longer question, the best thing to do with it is create a new page (see [[Main PageHelp:Editing]]for how to do that) with a description of the problem, and put the special text <code><nowiki>{{howto}}</nowiki></code> in it, which will cause it in to be listed on the [[Main Page SandboxCategory:How to]], so I can muck about with some organizational ideas without affecting the "live" version until they're finishedpage. I was going to say If you have a short question that we could delete is appropriate for the [[Main Page SandboxFAQ]] after we're done, but you can add it might be useful there, and leave the answer blank. If you have a question that you wish to leave it up discuss, the best place for future things like thisthat is the [http://www.ntg. -nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context ConTeXt mailing list] or the "Discussion" page associated with a particularly relevant Wiki page, though you can also use the [[UserTalk:BrooksFAQ|BrooksFAQ's "Talk" page]] 23:09, 4 Sep 2005 (UTC)if there's not an obvious choice.

:::: Let's try it. Good Idea. If it turns out wrong, we can still decide later. --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] 10:55, 5 Sep 2005 == just a typo (UTCwhich I cannot fix myself)==
