This wiki has been in place since at least 2012, and many pages have not been updated in years. There are pages for tools we no longer have, outdated pages on tools we do have, and a lack of information on newer tools and on our teams and how the space works. I plan to bring this wiki back up to date, and make it a resource that all ~600 of our members can count on.

Plan

Reorganisation

I'd like to move projects to the User namespace (like I have with this). Projects should still be assigned to the Project category so they can be browsed as a list, but the User namespace clearly shows the Project owner. Most project pages here are either long out of date or only relevant to at most a handful of people, I'd like the Project: namespace to be used for larger infrastructure projects as opposed to personal ones (e.g. Project:Hackspace 2.5).

Deletion

The wiki is fairly old and has a lot of pages that haven't been updated in years. I'll categorise as Category:CleanupDelete any page that I feel should be gone.

New pages

As part of a wider documentation project in the hackspace I'd like to create a page for each area of the space, and keep all relevant information on the wiki for members and guests to view.

I'd like to move all information on Tools and Equipment to the Tools: Namespace, Events to the Events: namespace, Teams to the Teams: namespace and information about the hackspace to the About: namespace.

To Do List

  1. Write About:History Page
  2. Write About:The Space Page
