OBX proposals
From OLPC
|
These are some of the possible Category:OBX templates under consideration for development in November 2007. (Most were subsequently developed, some are little-used as of December 2008.) This is both a sandbox and a catalog for ideas. What follows are just ideas, with very little consideration for aesthetics, only the functionality (good; bad; yes, but...) and utility are to be considered.
[edit] Suggestions & requests
Please feel free to add ideas and suggestions about what you feel would be a good box to have, a textual description is more than enough (no need to try doing it yourself :)
- team member status — Lauren suggested it, but can't imagine what she meant...
- My best guess is stuff like "I'm an intern!" "I'm a Director!" "I'm an enthusiast!" "Im a staff member!" "I'm an XO user!" "I'm a very, very frequent volunteer!" Mchua 02:06, 13 July 2007 (EDT)
- make boxes for different purposes different colors, for example 'i am a(n) artist/game developer/teacher/etc' could be red, while 'i want to find a(n) artist/game developer/teacher/etc' could be blue (and so on)
- davewa would like to propose this user box:
This user has created an Activity. - note that the extensive use of OBX templates on activity pages is redundant with the addition of Form:Activity and Template:Activity page to activity pages in 2008. Semantic MediaWiki#For activities suggests ways to harmonize them.

{{{updated}}} is optional and highlighted when it should be re-tested due to changes in the software (suggested by SJ).see {{OBX test}} [edit] development
{{OBX mimetypes | type | subtype }} basically any page, and software components that handles mimetypes see {{OBX mimetypes}} — although a full-template, it is still being thought out... type|subtype is messy for all categories, and one thing is the actual mime type and another is the file extension... FDBK User feedback can be found in {{{wikilink}}} {{OBX feedback|location}} basically any page, and software components that want to have feedback the {{{wikilink}}} could be local or external, preferably a subpage (ie: [[somepage/Feedback]] which could be the default if no parameter is given). DEV I develop/test using {{{environment}}} on {{{platform}}} {{OBX develop|environment|platform}} for users to declare their platform of choice the environment could be QEMU, jhbuild, etc, while platfrom could be Fedora, Ubuntu, etc. [edit] characterization
This activity relies on the camera and/or microphone {{OBX cameramic}} any activity that needs the camera and/or microphone ◯ ╳

△ ▢This activity can be used in console mode {{OBX console}} any activity that can be used in console mode (needs the game pad) similar to {{OBX gamepad}} above {{OBX mesh}} any activity that needs the Category:Network 
This activity relies on the Internet {{OBX mesh internet}} any activity that needs the Internet BLD First appeared in build {{{number}}} {{OBX build xo|number}} for those components that have been included in the builds STAT The status of is {{{stat}}} {{OBX source stat|stat}} basically any page that people are contributing for the concept embodied in said page the {{{stat}}} could be segmented into things like idea, pre-alpha, alpha, beta, ... [edit] pedagogical aspects
SUBJ Related to {{{subject}}} {{OBX school subject|subject}} for material targeted for a particular school subject the {{{subject}}} should be segmented into things like Math, Geography, etc. ... SCHL Related to {{{school}}} {{OBX school|school}} Page is related to the particular {{{school}}} GRD Related to school grade {{{grade}}} {{OBX school grade|grade}} Page is related to a particular {{{grade}}} ART I'm an [[Category:Artist|Artist]] can do [[Category:Artist foo|foo]] {{User artist|foo}} A user would define itself as an Artist (cateogry), capable of doing foo (subcategory or artist), and also register as a volunteer (another category) ART In need of a [[Category:Wanted Artist foo|foo]] artist {{OBX artist wanted|foo}} A 'consumer' would specify some need for an Artist (cateogry), capable of doing foo (subcategory or artist). Those would be just references, not categorizations. Suggest by an IRC chat with User:nlee [edit] projects
INT ern This user is an intern doing blah {{User intern|project|mentor}} If a user is an intern it would (besides categorize the page) provide links to the mentor, project, etc. MEN tor This user is an mentor doing blah {{User intern|project|mentor}} If a user is an mentor/tutor it would (besides categorize the page) provide links to the mentor, project, etc. ie User:Bnardone/Internship [edit] unclassified
GEO The location is linkToMap. See XO map. {{OBX geocoord|lat|long|XO}} basically any page that could be plotted (a Category:Pilot site, a particular XO, etc) the linkToMap would be built similarly to this pseudo template XO Have XO will travel.{{{model}}}-{{{serial}}} {{OBX xo|model|serial}} user pages that want to publicize their XO with pride this should probably be an user box, and could be merged with the GEO above. [edit] superseded prototypes
