User talk:Kostas: Difference between revisions

I agree with you that they should not be marked as user guides, as they do not contain the full guide but refer to external resources. So to avoid further confusion, I changed their category to [[:Category:External guides|external guides]] to indicate that they are articles that just summarize resources external to this wiki. And of course the articles should only be made if, like the user guides, they allow users to regain ownership of their product. This category is a subcategory of [[:Category:User guides|user guides]], as they align with the same goal, makes them distinct, but still readily accessible via the main page of the wiki. I hope this clarification helps, and if you have any thoughts on this, feel free to reply --[[User:InTransparencyWeTrust|InTransparencyWeTrust]] 19:12, 05 February 2025 (UTC)

:Hey @[[User:InTransparencyWeTrust|InTransparencyWeTrust]], thanks for reaching out about this. I still have my reservations about having these as a sub-category to user guides. As far as content they fit more in the theme category but I can definetely see the reasoning behind the catgorization in that category (discoverability etc). I wanted to ask the opinion of @[[User:Keith|Keith]] and @[[User:Waldo|Waldo]] on this before contacting you about the category this sould fall under but having this conversation here might be better.

:The thing is that having guide on the wiki is not something we want to focus on so adding more types/versions of them would probably not be something we want to encourage. I thought of having the futo guide article as a section of the FUTO company page rather than a seperate enty would be better (or maybe I have missunderstood what the end goal with that is) and categorizing the local running of AI as a user guide page, so it can also bear the notice, despite the more general nature.

::I think that 'Youtube content creator made a video detailing instructions on how to set up self-managed stuff' is somewhat beyond the scope of the Wiki. The most I could see it being here would be as a small mention in the FUTO article (i.e. FUTO comissioned this guide, which sought to advance conumser rights) or something of the sort. I don't think it fits as its own guide article here. At present, the only guides which exist on the Wiki are those directly tied to specific conusmer protection incidents, and I think that's probably how it should stay for the forseeable future.
