My preferred eMail account name is emYOUlation and is on Yahoo.com mail system. (Yes, it was a deliberate mispelling of emulation. This had been intended to be a SPAM CatchAll account.)
My growing Wiki ToDo list:
Special Interests
interesting article on Localization & Internationalization for Word Press
Outstanding small targets
see Objectification of the Gramps glossary
- Verifying the Addons pages list all addons
- build an external parser (perhaps using a macro language) for the hosted addon file update file to generate a Table for the addons list page (this might be a pipedream)
- cultivating a Transclusion (transcribed inclusion) to be more helpful when recycling and starting a new page in a tutorial WikiPage
- build something to make summarizing a maillist thread discussion less_intimidating/more_inviting.
- Find a way to consolidate translated pages indexed in Category & mask obsolete versions
- Revise Download page to reduce overload
- revise "How do I...?" template and add to
- Help,
- new,
- editing page content
- make it less itimidating. There is too much extra stuff to clean out and scroll through in the template
- create a Gramplet/Add-on documentation template
- include a Add-on indexing table so that can be pasted in the cross-reference
- have standards for creating the naming of the page.
