Administrivia | Martina | Next meeting: May 10th |
Announcements | Martina Marcia All | PC: CC, PC, TC are working on Terminology document Google Season of docs application was not accepted this year. Possible Projects: translation, graphics, search Discussion about Graphics: |
Reporting - LDP App User story | Eliana | Changing the direction of documentation – right now too technical and focused on system administrators – better to use user stories Reporting – information is duplicated from other documentation, linking to the other documentation is fine We are following the style guide https://developers.google.com/style Reshaping user stories this to align with style guide and other pages (phrasing, words …) User stories could be separate – maybe in wiki Erin did a section “additional topics” nested under Resource Access https://nolana.docs.folio.org/docs/access/additional-topics/ Examples: How you run a report is too variable. What would you like to accomplish? Task and accomplishment and not UI descriptions Information on docs: Here is what you find in the docs – and this is what you find in the wiki the wiki space for data import was restructured to make it clearer https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/display/FOLIOtips/Data+Import in the wiki it is easier to change content existing resources on wiki – updated over time – what version it is there for is not clear maybe create new pages on the wiki maybe first content creation and then cleaned up, labeled and organized in the wiki maybe moving some valuable information to docs wiki created by anyone from the community – docs is much more controlled on the wiki information on syntax for data import |
Orchid check-in | All | Orchid documentation will be written and finished up The user should choose a release intentionally to know what is looked at. On docs.folio.org – graphics for every release could be included to refer to the documentation docs.folio.org/docs – make sure to use the release menu for selecting the right documentation pointing to a page – a consistent link is needed that does not have the release name in the URL (which changes) example: here is the link e.g. invoice section – link to the most recent version idea: section for the current release in the top of pages, here is the documentation for nolana, morning glory – maybe only the last 2-3 releases |
Potential Changes to the Table of Contents | Marcia | Should be solid before we are translating – mirrored to other languages Long content within inventory – right hand navigation – often the search is used and not the table of content Maybe subsection Long pages: Inventory, Setting for circ and users, Settings Inventory, Acquisitions: Orders and Finances, Reporting Left hand is too long – no one is scrolling down – glossary is not noticed Idea: Remove Permissions documentation from all pages and creating a page with all permissions documentation for librarians doing permissions sets or assigning permissions To much scrolling in general Do we need to change the table of content or is there another way to access the content (e.g. graphics) and this would help? |
Poppy due date | Poppy public release is planned for July 31 Poppy documentation deadline: |
