Talk:Glossary
- Introduction
As part of the effort to set up a regularly-synchronised glossary for terms we often refer to and would like to collaborate on, I propose changing the way we currently manage this category. This would involve moving the terms that are currently in the Glossary article as a list to this, the talk page. From there, we could slowly change them into their own articles which are placed in the glossary category. The current glossary article could then itself become the definition of what the glossary is, how it is used and how to contribute to development. Of course it, too, would then be placed in the Glossary category and regularly synchronised with the other XMLWikis/Peers in the field.
- Proposed structure
The glossary category could be added to the peer's sync-list via list-cat as well as being added to the template list. This would apply to the "Organisational Templates" and "User Guides" categories too. Their definition articles can be collected and developed via the "Collaboration Portal" which is currently being set up. In everyday usage, the templates and definitions would be embedded withing the relevant categories. For instance, the term Aggregation is embedded in the category page of Category:Aggregation. That way the definition can remain synchronised using the Peer, the content of the category, or the layout of the definition article is unique to the organisation using it, however.
- Template stuff (by and for Aran)
- put generic org-terms like this in OD and add them to OD:Gir/wikiSync/Meridian
- also I'll do a template soon for mentioning to edit the source which only comes up on not-OD
- with a link to the source like this https://www.organicdesign.co.nz/Glossary
