Thanks for adding a profile to your user page, and thanks for your work on the OESF Wiki. -- Meyer (talk) 21:56, 1 October 2007 (EDT)

From Tux

Hi Koan, you seem to get caught by the wiki logging you out in the middle too! I assume this is your IP 130.54.130.229?--Tux 05:04, 5 October 2007 (EDT)

Hi again, this new page about converting to English, there are some pages that try to do this already. I'll put the link to a very detailed page in the discussion page for your new page. It is probably sensible, though a bit tedious, to look at [Special Pages] or [Allpages] when thinking about putting up a new page.-Tux 05:23, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

Redirect

Not to worry! it actually taught me how to do some things I've needed to be able to do! Tried to put something about that here, twice, but I think my dns setup decided to play me up. So your message got to me before I could get to you!-Tux 06:37, 12 October 2007 (EDT)

Edit/Undo/Rollback

It's even easier to use rollback, but sometimes it is helpful to use edit and leave a message. That way you can give a hint about what was the reason for the edit. For example revert spam, remove gibberish etc. Cheers-Tux 04:15, 15 October 2007 (EDT)

Proposed Wiki Layout

I think that's a lot of work to get it sorted out; the basic principle is 1. Zaurus, 2. Non-Zaurus (which means mostly software) and 3. Other projects. Koan 20:19, 24 October 2007 (EDT)

I think you're proposed structure is good. Have you linked to all the existing pages? -- Meyer (talk) 11:14, 1 November 2007 (EDT)

Not yet. I'm trying to link in to everything as best as I can, but some pages don't exist or have bad scope (i.e. 5500 only when could easily apply to all Zaurus). It's a massive effort to make everything coherent but we've got to start somewhere. Koan 20:31, 1 November 2007 (EDT)

I think it would be good to put a Debian link under Projects to a top-level page, which can then link to the top pages of the various Debian flavours. For example to the Titchylinux page, to ZDevils 'first' page. If you think this is sensible, you do the change on the main page and set up the top-level page for Debian and I'll start putting the links in. Reply to my talk page if you want to discuss it.-Tux 05:23, 4 November 2007 (EST)

Main Page Protection

I have altered the protection on the main page. You have to be logged in to edit though! Be cautious and put an explanation on the main page discussion/talk page.-Tux 13:01, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

Actually Meyer has jumped in and moved a lot of the chit-chat to Current events and done some tidying up of what is left. I suspect that what you want to do will fit easily into what Meyer has done.-Tux 17:03, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
