Announcement of correctionform.txt #1

Closed funderburkjim closed 8 years ago

funderburkjim commented 10 years ago

The https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/CORRECTIONS/blob/master/correctionform.txt file in this repository gives an accurate, public view of the correction submissions, and their status. The plan is to keep this file in sync with the Sanskrit Lexicon Correction Form (Responses), which is where user Correction Form submissions go.

As time goes by, the plan is to have similar information about the corrections that get applied to the dictionaries by various processes outside the correction form venu.

It's called the changelog. Finally, good to see it come.

drdhaval2785 commented 9 years ago

@funderburkjim and @gasyoun Don't we need to display the changelog link on the cologne website also? Otherwise nobody other than us will arrive here. If we can also give link to the correction github page on the front page - there will be increased chances of volunteers. Alone, we have great limitations.

What say?

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

@drdhaval2785 Please give very specific suggestion as to where you propose link(s) and the wording.

drdhaval2785 commented 9 years ago

I see that the home page of http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/ now shows github link. Good to see. Don't know since when it was there. But this is what I asked for. capture

Can we put dictionary specific links of Github in the place marked with red in all dictionaries also ? e.g. Link to MW in this case with same message, but link it to MW subdirectory of Github. capture

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

As an experiment, I put a Correction History link on the Advanced Search for CAE: http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/CAEScan/2014/web/webtc2/index.php.

@drdhaval2785 Is this what you were meaning?

gasyoun commented 9 years ago

Correction History looks nice, but I guess Dhaval would want to see https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/CORRECTIONS/issues as well.

drdhaval2785 commented 9 years ago

I guess Dhaval would want to see https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/CORRECTIONS/issues as well. Absolutely yes.

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

@gasyoun , @drdhaval2785

This might provide the opportunity for a good small exercise in using sandev. The exercise would be for you to modify (on sandev) CAE/web/webtc2/index.php so it has just the the form of link(s) you have in mind.
Then, after review, I can fold the sandev version into Cologne version.

drdhaval2785 commented 9 years ago

@funderburkjim http://dkfsermons.com/cologne/CAE/web/webtc2/index.php is what i meant

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

Since GitHub can host static web-sites (https://pages.github.com/), there can be a site for the sanskrit-lexicon project.

I suggest we create such a site, and link to it from Cologne pages. The material Dhaval has prepared above would be part of the site. Since @gasyoun has good instincts regarding web page design, he should take the lead in maintaining this site. Once the site design is established, we can decide on exactly which page of the site the Corrections-Help link from Cologne should land on.

Regarding number of links per Cologne Page, I think we should stick to just 1 link (to the Github sanskrit-lexicon site).

gasyoun commented 9 years ago

@funderburkjim make a test page on github, based on Dhaval's idea?

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

@gasyoun Yes, that was the idea - to make a website at 'sanskrit-lexicon.github.io', and place Dhaval's todo list for volunteers material on that website. The site might also have other uses.

Github Pages explains how to start. In this case, I think a 'project site' is what is wanted. (so it would be called sanskrit-lexicon.github.io).

The Cologne site would link to that web-site, rather than to the repository.
That was the idea.

gasyoun commented 9 years ago

A volunteers wanted link from different pages of Cologne here would make the start. People would start asking. Making another project for to-be one person does not looks a good way to spend my holiday time. :mahjong:

drdhaval2785 commented 8 years ago

Now we have sanskrit-lexicon.github.io up and running. @gasyoun will have to design web page. Best HTML and CSS guy around. By the way - announcement of correctionforms has lived its life. Closing it.
