Outreach

Goals

  • One hundred daily contributors by end of September, 2011 (PortlandWiki's second birthday).
  • Easier user interface; make PortlandWiki readily accessible to non-geek contributors.

Neighborhoods

Admin

Spent day researching how to upload pre written articles en masse.

MediaWiki Manuals

Importing from other types of files
The Edit.php, importImages.php and ImportTextFile.php maintenance scripts can be used to import text and images into MediaWiki.

Looked at

Must Read: Wikipedia:Creating a bot
MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator | MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator
(Depends on Snoopy; already trying to get DreamHost to help with server config.)
(Finally got Snoopy installed but MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator's scant documentation is hard to follow. Now looking at tools listed under Also, And....)

Also

Article::doEdit()

And

(Extension:External Data is part of the Semantic Bundle already installed on PortlandWiki.)
Manual:Importing external content - Converting content from a CSV text file
csv and xls converter to wiki

Other mediawiki extensions

Will need to config SOAP.

Interesting stuff

Remove Empty Directories — RED is a little utility that allows you to remove empty folders recursively.
tester.jonasjohn.de — A website test tool.
snippet library — A code snippets collection.
htmlSQL — A PHP class which allows you to access HTML values by an SQL like syntax.

Other Admin To Do

PortlandWiki Internal Links
