OBX proposals

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.
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.

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... | |||
|
{{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). | ||
|
{{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. | ||
characterization | |||||

{{OBX cameramic}} | any activity that needs the camera and/or microphone | |||

|
{{OBX build xo|number}} | for those components that have been included in the builds | |||
|
{{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, ... | ||
pedagogical aspects | |||||
|
{{OBX school subject|subject}} | for material targeted for a particular school subject | the {{{subject}}} should be segmented into things like Math, Geography, etc. ... | ||
|
{{OBX school|school}} | Page is related to the particular {{{school}}} | |||
|
{{OBX school grade|grade}} | Page is related to a particular {{{grade}}} | |||
|
{{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) | |||
|
{{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 | ||
projects | |||||
|
{{User intern|project|mentor}} | If a user is an intern it would (besides categorize the page) provide links to the mentor, project, etc. | |||
|
{{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 | |||
unclassified | |||||
|
{{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 | ||
|
{{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. | ||
superseded prototypes |
The following are trials that are only kept as testimony of ideas or alternatives. | ||||
|
{{OBX source l10n|wikilink}} | basically all activity pages, and software components that need to be l10n-ed | superseded by {{OBX pot}} | ||
|
{{OBX l10n wikipo|wikilink}} | basically any software components that need to be l10n-ed | superseded by {{OBX pot}} | ||
|
