== Suggestions ==
=== Mobile portal ===
It seems to me that we need to give more structure to [[Portal:Mobile]], and to update and augment the content. The goal is to categorise entries based on the use case (installation, development best practices, how-to's etc.). We started some work by structuring the Android section already, which could be taken as a blueprint. This should be completed, and the same should be done for the rest of the actively development platforms, especially iOS and Windows RT. Currently edits are being done at least by Marco_Piccolino (me) and Benlau. Anybody else who is willing to join the mobile effort is very welcome. Just join the forum discussion! For realtime discussions, you can find us daily on the [http://slackin.qtmob.org QtMob] Slack chat. --[[User:Marco_Piccolino|Marco_Piccolino]] ([[User talk:Marco_Piccolino|talk]]) 14:49, 11 March 2016 (CET)
=== QtQuick FAQ ===
Currently I don't find any FAQ for QtQuick/QML is available on Wiki yet. I would suggest to add this section.

** You can tag outdated articles with [[:Template:Outdated]]. This will add the page to [[:Category:Outdated_pages]]. We are archiving, not deleting, pages that were once useful to the public. --[[User:JKSH|JKSH]] ([[User talk:JKSH|talk]]) 05:32, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

== Suggestions ==
=== Localization improvement: Dedicated wiki for each language ===
The organization of articles in languages others then English is pretty bad. I suggest to do it like Wikipedia and have subdomains with dedicated mediawikis for all supported languages and create links between articles in different language versions.
I've put together a somewhat lengthy explanation of what is going wrong with the current localization scheme and why I think this is the way to go to achieve the best user experience; it can be found on the forum: [http://forum.qt.io/topic/54119/wiki-week/6] --[[User:Wieland|Wieland]] ([[User talk:Wieland|talk]]) 20:30, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
=== Removing pages ===
Symbian is dead. Shall we remove Symbian related pages? I would say yes. But what about Qt3? There is at least one project I know (the unholy KDE3 fork Trinity) that still uses Qt3, although they are "maintaining" their own Qt3 fork. Shall Qt3 related pages be removed, too? Shall we send an e-mail to the Trinity guy(s)? --[[User:Wieland|Wieland]] ([[User talk:Wieland|talk]]) 23:28, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
: I vote for archiving, not deletion. --[[User:JKSH|JKSH]] ([[User talk:JKSH|talk]]) 14:44, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
=== Clear distinction between Qt versions ===
I think there should be a clear, big fat warning on top of every article that specifically targets Qt4. --[[User:Wieland|Wieland]] ([[User talk:Wieland|talk]]) 23:29, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
: Agreed. Use [[Template:Outdated]]. --[[User:JKSH|JKSH]] ([[User talk:JKSH|talk]]) 14:44, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
=== List of needed articles ===
Some questions pop up on the forums again and again. I think it would be of great value if we could identify those questions and make a list of articles that need to be written. --[[User:Wieland|Wieland]] ([[User talk:Wieland|talk]]) 23:43, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Revision as of 14:02, 21 September 2016

We sporadically hold a Wiki Week to bring order to this wiki. During wiki week we work together on these topics:

This page will contain links to lists of pages that need to be checked or fixed.

Tips

Reminder: Code Formatting

A guideline to people writing code examples on the wiki.

For example .pro files need to have

 <code lang="make">

defined in their code block.
