Discussed next steps for revised nav w/ @naomimarcussen and @claytonzook. Will revise schema based on our shared understanding.

@naomimarcussen We had Clayton listed as a reviewer for this ticket (in addition to Cheryl). Once complete, would you be able to take a look and make sure it's implemented as expected? Please and thank you!

[naomimarcussen]

I'm happy to review. If you need any help doing the work, I'm happy to help with that as well.

Hi @naomimarcussen. I've submitted the new schema to Platform Confluence Not having Clayton around to draft some of the new top-level pages throws a bit of a monkey wrench into things= but I did my best to adapt.

@naomimarcussen See schema below...

As you can see, it doesn't have some of the content changes we discussed because Clayton isn't around to make the planned pages and the rest of planned content isn't available right now

[jimuhh]

But I've submitted the schema to Vicki at Platform Confluence

[naomimarcussen]

@jimuhh Thank you for this! I'll work on organizing our content according to this schema in the Platform website drafts space in Confluence. As for the new pages, I'll give it a go but I would love some help from the Platform content team.

[shiragoodman]

change announcement has been posted to #vfs-change-announcements and then cross shared in #vfs-all-teams, #design and #research-ops.

@jimuhh please verify the remaining tasks. @CherylEvans please peer review and follow up here if any tasks and/or activities still need to be verified or completed.

[jimuhh]

@naomimarcussen -- It looks like most of the "to-dos" on this spreadsheet are accounted for. The only remaining ones were going to be adding a page specifically about surveys, w/ focus on PRA and privacy concerns. Clayton was going to do that. I can ask in VA research channel and have a go on stubbing one out.

[CherylEvans]

@shiragoodman @jimuhh Given your comment Jim, is this ready for peer review? If you don't mind, will you provide a link for all your drafts that I need to review? Also, I am a little confused. Have these changes already been made to the Platform Website? I see that the announcement was made, and that is why I am confused. Please advise. I have also requested access to the Google sheets referenced above. Sorry for all of the questions, I simply want to perform an accurate and complete review.

[jimuhh]

@CherylEvans Sorry if I didn't clarify. The remaining tasks here would be covered by the tech debt tickets I'll be creating. And yes, the changes have.been made to platform website.

[jimuhh]

@CherylEvans So yeah, I don't know how much peer review is left to complete.

[CherylEvans]

@jimuhh It's all good! Thank you for sharing the doc with me. In as much as I understand what was to be accomplished with this ticket, I think everything looks good. There were a lot of moving parts with this ticket for sure. :-)

[naomimarcussen]

@jimuhh That would be great for you to take a stab at a page specific to surveys! I imagine it'll be similar (in regards to the PRA content) to the Planning Unmoderated Studies.

[jimuhh]

@naomimarcussen, @shiragoodman I am going to check off the remaining tasks and create a backlog ticket for the surveys page.
