New page

=Marspedia Editorial Subcommittee Weekly Meeting=

We convened this meeting as a teleconference using the Zoom.US service on July 30, 2018

==Attendees==

James Burk, Frank Crossman, Jim LeFevre

==Agenda==

* Review current progress of Re-Categorization.
* Discuss next steps including process to revise the Needed Articles page.

==Minutes==

James provided an update on the re-categorization project which so far has resulted in our '''[Marspedia:New_Category_Hierarchy]''', the creation of this set of categories on the wiki by James, and the beginning of re-tagging each existing article with the new category set. James is around 1/3 done with the re-tagging and plans to be done in the next 1-2 weeks. It is a manual process for each article and he's working on some other technical debt & cleanup during this exercise.

Josh has been working on the Category picker and the first version is in the refreshed Development Environment ([[http://dev.marspedia.org]]) with some bugs.

We created a '''[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rFZISdA3DpNg4sKP8JjJvYWTqI5c0DKsk0_lWMzFJog/edit?usp=sharing Needed Articles Spreadsheet]''' to assist with the revision of the Needed Articles page.

==Action Items for Next Week==

* Josh - Continue working on Category Picker
* James - Continue with re-tagging work so that all articles on the wiki have the correct (new) categories.
* All - Work on '''[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rFZISdA3DpNg4sKP8JjJvYWTqI5c0DKsk0_lWMzFJog/edit?usp=sharing Needed Articles Spreadsheet]'''

Everybody can help us build this out -- column A is the category and Columns B through Z (or longer) is the title of a stub page under that category.  The goal is for us to look holistically at each category and think about what articles we want to have long-term there.  Once this spreadsheet is done, we can bulk-generate the stub pages and get to work on the articles.  They can be prioritized and assigned out to volunteers.
