===Archiving=== | |||
Restructuring would be a good idea. Please note that Sugar Labs is a 'Learning project' and that we learn from our collective mistakes, so extra thought needs to go into archiving them for later learning. The page history is usually a good mechanism, and learning from it is made more discoverable if changes are made in significant blocks and such edits have a brief reason for change message. This can be accomplished by working first in a 'test/development' page, such as [[User:Inkyfingers/Getting_Started(0)]], and once the editors are satisfied, copying the new version to the current version of the target page. In other cases, where a new page name/title is desired, once the new content is ready, moving the old page title to the new title, and then pasting the new content over the old, is best for preserving the full history of that page concept. In still other cases, obsolete themes and content can be moved to the background in explicit 'Obsolete' or 'Archive' subpages, e.g., [[Activity Team/Obsolete]], [[Archive/Current Events]] | |||
The [[Sugar on a Stick/Archive]] page could be put to better use in the proposed restructuring. | |||
Please note that the [[Sugar on a Stick]] is our most [[Special:PopularPages |visited page]], so please prepare your changes in the proposed test-bed and use the 'Under construction' tag when there are short-term unfinished changes to the page. Improvements to the page might actually make it 'Popular' in addition to most visited. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 13:40, 2 December 2011 (EST) | |||
