The Community Team

The community team is responsible for promoting DokuWiki and it's community. Making people want to use, talk about, write about and contribute to the DokuWiki project.

What skills are needed?

  • Decent written English
  • Curiosity in search for information that would be interesting to others

What are the main tasks?

Who are we?


Håkan Sandell from Sweden

I write the newsletter with some help from the others.


Andreas Gohr from Berlin

I promote DokuWiki through social networks, blog posts, pod casts and wiki related events.

FIXME Add rest of the team

Current tasks

Now

  • Revive newsletter and social teams, involve more people
    • Plan A: let each team write about themselves, to get familiar with contributing
    • Plan B: ?
  • Better links to forum etc page refactor pages, somewhere add a ohloh project widget (where to put social?)
    • “read others opinions” press, blog, listings
    • “communicate & participate” forum, mailing lists, irc, bug tracker
    • “evaluate” features, factsheet, requirements, changes (leaflet)
  • Continue getting inspired by TikiWiki Communications Team

Small stuff (one night ;-) )

Later

Every Release

Media Task
Freecode (Freshmeat) Login, press “Submit a release” (generates mail to subscribers) current “Adora Belle” submitted
Wikipedia Update “Latest release” current “Adora Belle”
WikiMatrix Updated by CosmoCode (possible to send email reminder)
SocialSourceCommons Login, edit current “2009-12-25”
Ostatic current “Adora Belle”

Some thoughts about listings

Do something about

  • Update information at Ostatic, hopelessly outdated (and bad rating)
  • Try to update information at www.c2.com
  • Update Freshmeat
    • tags/os/translations etc, compare with tiki and confl.
    • Page looks like crap
    • Maybe request “DoFollow”
    • Use their Home Page Analysis Summary (indicates www.dokuwiki.org can be improved)

Get listed on

Investigate

Devel efforts improving popularity

This is some improvements that might make the first impression better

  • Include more than one template, people want to try different looks easy
  • “Every tick in the box” at WikiMatrix
