Because I'm fed up of having to revert wiki pages all the time. Some people may subscribe to the idea that things should be super-easy for random people on the Internet to go in and make their oh-so-vital contribution to shared resources like the Python Wiki, because it's otherwise "setting a high barrier", "inconvenient for quick changes" or just being "elitist", but when it just means that people go in and vandalise it with their stupid link spamming, I'd much rather raise the barrier so that it's more likely that only people motivated enough to sign up and to actually demonstrate competence and benign intent get to edit those resources. > > + #acl TrustedEditorsGroup:read,write,delete,revert All:read > > + > > > > If you have anything to contribute -- e.g. configurations for editors, > > new editors, or opinion -- don't hesitate to edit or create pages. > > Isn't it contradicting with ACL? Not really. Random spammers don't have anything to contribute, and short of introducing other measures (which exist but don't seem to be palatable to the admins, at least as far as I know), I don't think it's much to ask people to demonstrate that they are sincere about making genuine contributions. There are people who send mails to me personally to edit pages without ACLs, so it's no hardship for people to do what you managed to do and to work your way up into the trusted editors group. Currently, I'm setting ACLs only on the most spammed pages after reverting them for the nth time. Again, we could add other measures, but there seems to be a resistance to do so. I think admin time and resources are limited (and I've been waiting for months for the go-ahead on something else that involves the python.org infrastructure, although I'm quite prepared to wait), and so we just have to make the best out of what we have. But that doesn't mean asking more from me and others who de-spam the wiki just to make everybody else's lives, including those of random spammers, easier.

You did mention a moderation feature some time back, but I don't remember seeing code for it. FWIW, I don't think this would lower the amount of work - probably just move it over to the moderation queue compared to the necessary spam removal every now and then. The number of spam pages and occasional vandalism has dropped to reasonable levels as far as I can tell. It's still annoying as ever, though. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Feb 09 2014) >>> Python Projects, Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope/Plone.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ 2014-01-28: Released eGenix pyOpenSSL 0.13.3 ... http://egenix.com/go52 ::::: Try our mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.

The coder part of my brain tells that wiki at python.org should alias to this list, but the marketing and PR departments don't like the awkward pydotorg-www name, but don't risk resurrecting pydotorg thread, which will bring back deconstructive whines about privacy and comfort zones. > In any case, if you want to discuss wiki issues you can do so here.

I'd say that spammers are more motivated than competent people nowadays. The decline in Wikipedia edits shows a clear trend, so EAFP becomes even more important to encourage valuable additions. The 2014 solution is not strict ACL, but ACL that just puts edits in ModerationQueue, which MoinMoin doesn't implement. >> > + #acl TrustedEditorsGroup:read,write,delete,revert All:read >> > + >> > >> > If you have anything to contribute -- e.g. configurations for editors, >> > new editors, or opinion -- don't hesitate to edit or create pages. >> >> Isn't it contradicting with ACL? > > Not really.

It would be more fun to use the best what we have and not build upon best that's available. Because in Belarus I don't know people who would do through the process of requesting permission to edit a page on Python wiki, and we have about 10 mln. people. I'd also give edit privilege to any person who made at least one successful edit.

As well as votes per module and all kind of various metrics including the quality ratio and feedback whenever the module should be refactored, deprecated, replaced or removed from standard library. In the long term space exploration program every module could also accumulate stories of usage (both good and bad) and scenarios (planned usage workflow), which will provide essential source data for reengineering efforts. So far no funding had been secured to go on with this plan.

If you look at https://wiki.python.org/psf/FrontPage, the purpose of the wiki is spelled out at the bottom: """ The purpose of this wiki is as a private space for collaborative editing: * for initial internal development of proposals and plans, that may not yet be ready to be shared with the world at large; * to arrive at an internal consensus before taking an official position; * for sensitive and confidential information; and * to serve as an archive of projects we decided not to pursue and the reasons why not.

There are pages that are limited to Board Directors and Officers that should definitely not be made public. On the other hand, it's easy to enable public access for individual pages as needed, and this has been done for several pages. The PSF may have open membership now, but I expect that the majority of new members will be Basic Members without voting rights. I suggest that the purpose of the Private PSF Wiki be re-stated as accessible to "voting members of the PSF". In any case, I think this is premature. http://www.python.org/psf/membership/ still lists the old membership classes. http://www.python.org/psf/bylaws/ show the old bylaws, not the new ones (and have the new ones been adopted yet?). I assume that the form at http://www.python.org/users/membership/ is for Basic Membership (I don't see any choice there, or any way to pay a Supporting Membership fee). If we want to have a normally-open wiki for the PSF, I recommend making a new one, and selectively moving pages over from the old one.

I agree with David. We've been using the PSF wiki as private place for sharing PSF internal information. That information would have to be reviewed before making it public. Note that we have not yet decided on whether basic members will get access to the wiki or the members mailing list. Like David suggested, limiting this access to voting members would be an option. The board will put together a FAQ to address such questions regarding the new membership model. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Feb 21 2014) >>> Python Projects, Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope/Plone.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ 2014-02-12: Released mxODBC.Connect 2.0.4 ... http://egenix.com/go53 ::::: Try our mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.

I asked about the images, so I'm not sure myself. As for adjusting menus, they're set within the sitetree on the admin. I guess you need to be careful, though, because some menus link directly to pages, and some are apparently "apps". I dont really know anything about Django, but I screwed up the success stories by not knowing this difference...or something like that.

Thanks. I suppose they have to go into the repo, rather than be added through the Django admin: https://github.com/python/pythondotorg/tree/master/static While this is a common approach, it is also somewhat cumbersome when adding new content with embedded images. > As for adjusting menus, they're set within the sitetree on the admin. > I guess you need to be careful, though, because some menus link > directly to pages, and some are apparently "apps". I dont really know > anything about Django, but I screwed up the success stories by not > knowing this difference...or something like that. Ok, I found that entry in the admin. Apparently changes to the sitetree take a longer while to actually make it through to the site. Looks like there's some heavy caching going on. There is indeed a lot of generating going on on the site. The templates for those generated pages can be found in the repo as well: https://github.com/python/pythondotorg/tree/master/templates I guess to be fully productive in maintaining the site, we'll need to give more people access to the repo. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Feb 22 2014) >>> Python Projects, Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope/Plone.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ 2014-02-12: Released mxODBC.Connect 2.0.4 ... http://egenix.com/go53 ::::: Try our mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.

Most users (i.e. me) don't need "Python Events" and "Past Python Events" in the main menu. This secondary info can be moved to specific event series page (and called Python Events Archive) to de-clutter the nav. It is rather obvious to look for it there. -- anatoly t.

Using "Archive" instead of "Past" is a good idea.
