make it easy for working group facilitators to add first round of info about their group

[kat]

Make a google doc for each group with the questions and link to it from the working group page

[kat]

I've created a first version of this to model for the rest https://opengovernment.org.au/working-groups/access-to-information/ but it seems clunky @henare @equivalentideas please review.

[equivalentideas]

I'll have a look now

[equivalentideas]

I think it is a bit of a complex process at the moment. Could we simplify it by taking the questions off the current page and having a big button to go to the google doc. Then it's clear that all the editing happens in here?

What do ya think @kat ?

[kat]

Yes good I was thinking that too :+1: how about changing kick things off to something plainer like 'begin by' and then say what will happen next 'we'll work with you to put that information here' or similar

[kat]

links for the questions for each working group access to information, anti corruption, civic participation, public resources, and public services. Please can you @equivalentideas proliferate?

[equivalentideas]

@kat Yep I'll set this up for all the pages now.

• [x] change the text and add links to all the pages
  • [x] Access to information
  • [x] Anti corruption
  • [x] civic participation
  • [x] public resources
  • [x] public services
• [x] add the button style to the css as something like .btn-secondary

[equivalentideas]

@kat I think you need to change the permissions on those docs so anyone can edit/view with the link. I can't access them at the moment.

[equivalentideas]

I've implemented this across the pages. I used a light teal colour that's used for the tabs interface on the front page for the button colour, rather than the green. I didn't wanted to use an existing colour pattern from the site for familiarity. It could be a bit light with the white text? Let me know what ya think.

Before we close this we need to check that all the links are correct:

@kat I think you need to change the permissions on those docs so anyone can edit/view with the link. I can't access them at the moment.

[equivalentideas]

Hmm, I think that light teal is too weak. I think using the same primary orange will do the job.

[equivalentideas]

Made that change

[equivalentideas]

I can see you're opening the docs now @kat :+1: I'm checking that I got the links right. Found one a messed up already.

[equivalentideas]

@kat the link for the civic participation doc above is the same one of anti corruption, could you drop that in here again.

[equivalentideas]

Fixed up another of the links I copied wrong to the one provided above. The last thing on this issue is to make sure all the links work.

[kat]

civic participation is fixed - checking links

[equivalentideas]

From chat:

What's wrong with the phrase "This page needs" ... and how would you improve it @equivalentideas?

hmmm.

It's a bit long and not quite as clear as it could be. @kat What about:

This page needs some clear information about the working group added. This will to help members contribute to draft National Action Plan commitments.

[equivalentideas]

@kat the Google Doc link on Civic Participation still points to Anti Corruption https://opengovernment.org.au/working-groups/civic-participation/

[kat]

@equivalentideas sorry got interrupted. With the This site needs I thought that actual bit of the sentence passive. How about Giving a direct instruction. Use Add clear information \ instead of This site needs**

[kat]

checking links now - again...

[kat]

links fixed - just that one wording

[equivalentideas]

How about Giving a direct instruction.

How about:

You can get this page started by adding some basic information about the working group. This will ...

or:

Add some basic information about the working group. ...

[kat]

You're trying to make it gentler and less stark? Is there another way to do that? "You can" isn't direct and "get" is an icky word.

[kat]

if nothing comes to mind, then let's use You can for now - it's an improvement over This page needs .... :+1:

[kat]

or leave it for now even.
