Thinking about our various processes, it seems a good idea to put them in functional areas. A process might be used in one or multiple parts of the project. For example, a process for requesting access to a document on fedorahosted.org is used in many functional areas, such as recruiting, training, writing, editing, and publishing.
How does this list of functional areas look:
* Recruit * Train * Gather information * Write * Edit * Publish * Steer/govern * Project manage
... what is missing?
My thought from here is to:
1. Leave each process page in a master [[Category:Docs Project process]], which happens after wikibot runs from our docsproject.psv choices.
2. Add each process page to one or more sub-categories, for example [[Category:Docs Project recruiting process]]. The pattern of "Docs Project something process" is pretty clean and clear. This avoids obscuring acronyms, e.g. SOP for 'standard operating procedure'.
We'll want a master page for each functional area, and it links to each of the other pages used in that process that also happen to be in the same sub-category. The sub-category page is a nice way to see all pages in a process.
This is my thinking so far in how to improve our processes, clean-up the content, and use a MediaWiki-smart approach.
