Hello, I've just received a complain about [1] where what it seems, at first sight, a TOC, infact it is not: it's a series of links to aggregated WNPP bugs but not a TOC fot the given web pages. [1] http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html Since, at least in this case, it generated confusion and lead to missing the information about how to provide a correct WNPP bug, I'd suggest to introduce a simple TOC (moving also the "Using WNPP" at the top of the page): 1. importart links for WNPPbugs 2. report a WNPP bug with reportbug 3. report a WNPP bug via plain email 4. how to close a WNPP report and then the current content. This bug is meant to collect opinions about it (that might also direct to remove/rewrite [1]) and if it's a correct solution to the presented problem (that I recognize to exists: I know what's in that page, but a first-time visitor might be disoriented). Thanks for the attention, Sandro
Also, the subpages could use some re-organizacion.
For example for packages with RFA and O we have 4 pages:
*/wnpp/rfa_bypackage - List of packages RFA alphabetically
*/wnpp/rfa_bymaint - List of packages RFA by maintainer
*/wnpp/orphaned - List of packages orphaned (qa team in maintainer)
*/wnpp/work_needing - Lists packages for adoption, then same list by
maintainer, then orphaned packages.
The fourth page shows the information of the 3 others page and is clearly
lacking a TOC.
Suggestion:
Kill the rfa_bymaint page and add a page that lists then by date. I think
seeing how old the bug is more interesting than seeing who is the current
maintainer.
Remove the */wnpp/work_needing page. It is too long and if the main page
has a clear TOC it should not be needed.
Finally, keeping the sub-menu between all the pages, in the top.
For example, when I go go the */wnpp/rfa_bypackage from the TOC in the main
page I get:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Go back to the "Work-Needing and Prospective Packages" main page
- See this list by date
- See orphaned packages.
<h1>Packages up for adoption</h1>
* afnix ...
* alevt ..
....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Something similar could be done with */wnpp/prospective that contains
*/wnpp/being_packaged and */wnpp/requested
