What
|
| Prepare the wiki
|
- Check if the page for the extension key is available: Doc tut editors
- Check the changes on the wiki page (use the history), if there's new content since the last upload to TER
- Move the changes to the talk page (or a subpage if you prefer that)
|
| Use OpenOffice/LibreOffice
|
- Load the current manual from TER into OpenOffice/LibreOffice
- Export it using the "mediawiki" exporter
- Export the images along with the export as "xhtml"
|
| Now again the wiki page
|
- Copy/paste the result into the wiki page
- Upload the images Special:Upload
- Add the marker "{draft}"
- Add tags: e.g. {{Tag|extension}}
|
| Community/teamwork
|
- Now everybody can update and review it.
|
| Upload to TER
|
- If needed, the extension key can be transfered to us - user "Documentation Team"
- Start OpenOffice/LibreOffice and switch to HTML mode
- Copy/paste the whole wiki page into OpenOffice and save as .sxw
- Update the version and upload it to TER
