[Fedora Infrastructure] #1774: Fedora Wiki's stylesheet is screwey on small screen high DPI devices

#1774: Fedora Wiki's stylesheet is screwey on small screen high DPI devices ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: ynemoy | Owner: webmaster Type: bug | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: General | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ = phenomenon = Multiple issues here: Tables go beyond the page but the page isn't told about being wider than the screen, so horizontal scrolling is not possible. Embedded pictures and headers aren't formatted properly so text can flow around it, even in extreme situations. The sidebar takes up too much space at high DPIs leaving only half the page for the body. In the above order: http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0016.jpg http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0018.jpg http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0013.jpg http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0014.jpg http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0015.jpg Resizing the text and page zoom fixes some problems, but my opinion is that this is non obvious to many people. http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/wikixofail/IMAG0017.jpg = reason = I'm not much of a CSS guy, but i have a few ideas. First of all, the sidebar is strictly set to a hard size in relation to the rest of the page. Second of all, horizontal scrolling is (and rightly so) disabled at all costs. Third of all, something is not set properly when formatting embedded inline pictures, so that the sidebar can wrap around it, or so that it's left justified instead of right justified so it runs off the page rather than running into the sidebar. = recommendation = Wikipedia has a pretty decent mobile interface that works very nicely on the Android devices, and presumably on others as well. It avoids using a sidebar and TOC by replacing it with expandable fields. I think that at least having that stylesheet available would be a start. The tricky part is detecting the actual dimensions *and* DPI of a screen and switching to the appropriate stylesheet. In this particular example, the screenshots were taken on an XO using mostly stock settings and Firefox. Another and more costly and time consuming solution is to redesign the page more comprehensively so that it is a general purpose page for both mobile, small screen, and normal devices. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1774> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.

#5: Adding mirror links to support tab template -------------------+-------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: duffy | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Component: General Version: | Keywords: -------------------+-------------------------------------------------------- Add 'torrent trouble? download link to download.fedora.redhat.com, using language similar to ticket 3, in the support tab template for all spins. This work should not be done until mmcgrath has set up the spins on download.fedora.redhat.com though, and the links should use the mirror round-robin links. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/5> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

Fedora's wiki
by Mario González T 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Dear webmaster, Thanks to give this chance to talk with you guys, you've been doing a great job. I'm writing you because I was wondering if the fedora's wiki theme is released in somewhere. We have been dealing with mediawiki and my boss was delighted when he saw https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Project_Wiki We would like to know if you could share it with us? Many thanks, Kind regards from Chile. -- http://twitter.com/gonzalemario

[Fedora Infrastructure] #1227: Hosting footer

#1227: Hosting footer -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mmcgrath | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11 Component: Webmaster | Version: Production Severity: Normal | Keywords: -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- This is something we've talked about many times but it's not quite implemented yet. I'd like to put footers at the bottom of our pages that reference a hosting provider. For an example see: http://us.pycon.org/2009/conference/schedule/event/21/ We can't build it directly into the templates because different places have different hosting. What I'd like to do is have our templates import a js script (or something). Then we can deploy a custom js script to each host that has the relevant information. If you're interested put a proof of concept together on your fedorapeople page. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1227> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.

FAS bug

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was about to send an invite to a friend with the 'invite' link next to the Ambassador group block on the My Account page, but then I noticed that it is sending it from my wm161(a)wm161.net account. Shouldn't it be sending it from my fedoraproject.org email? Looks more professional that way I think. - -- Trever Fischer (tdfischer) Fedora Ambassador, KDE Hacker http://wm161.net GPG: C40F2998 hkp://wwwkeys.pgp.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAksn9hcACgkQNg53/sQPKZiNCACghcFQ+ugFQD51if4rPZHio1Z3 TbYAnjmL4TVC1ZDGq6I8Vu1VtQ7QXoIG =vY1x -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

broken links on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing page
by Bake Timmons 05 Jan '10

Hi, 1. The following link is on the EMC2 license is broken: http://www-c.inria.fr/gamma/cdrom/www/emc2/copyright.htm It seems that a replacement is: http://pauillac.inria.fr/cdrom_a_graver/www/emc2/copyright.htm 2. Also this is broken for Scilab: http://www.scilab.org/legal/license.html Current versions of Scilab now use a free license (CeCILL) and now link to that. One page containing the old Scilab license text is: http://www.worldlii.org/int/other/PubRL/2009/51.html 3. This is broken for the GLX Public License: http://www.sgi.com/products/software/opensource/glx/license.html One page that contains this license text (along with text of some other licenses) is: http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/LICENSE3.html Of course, another way to deal with the broken links is use as you have before old URLS stored by archive.org Thanks, Bake

Package bug lists
by Christopher Beland 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

I use lists such as: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/bugs/gdm to do bug triage, and they are much handier than doing searches in Bugzilla. Since we have switched to using the Triaged keyword instead of the ASSIGNED status to indicate triage has been completed for a particular bug, would it be possible to update this table to show triage status? It would also be tremendously useful to show if NEEDINFO is set, because when triaging I skip those bugs. Thanks!

problem with https://fedoraproject.org/en/verify
by Richard Z 01 Jan '10

01 Jan '10

Hi, sorry to use this contact address, was not sure where else to direct this. The procedure in this page has one significant stumbling point - the *-CHECKSUM file is a gzipped file - at least when it is downloaded using wget. ( I have tested it with https://fedoraproject.org/static/checksums/Fedora-12-i386-CHECKSUM ) Obviously it needs to unzipped - which is not quickly obvious for a bunch of reasons, eg it has no ".gz" suffix and many editors/viewers will unzip it automatically so the unsuspecting user is left scratching his head why it doesnt work when the file looks perfectly ok when viewed with "less" The result are rather cryptic error messages like # gpg --verify *-CHECKSUM gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: the signature could not be verified. Please remember that the signature file (.sig or .asc) should be the first file given on the command line. Regards Richard
