Allpedia:Structure Team

The Structure Team is a group of administrators and users who propose and implement new layout, features and design for Allpedia. This is not for wiki content itself; rather, the 'meta' that keeps the wiki functioning. You can simply add yourself as a member below if you want to participate.

Questions, suggestions and concerns may be taken to the local talk page.

Process
The exact process depends on the actions you want to take.

For policy and major structural changes we use three steps; propose, discuss and execute. Proposals can be made as subpages of this page, or just talked about in the discussion tab. Alternative choices with enough difference in content can be proposed as their own version. A team leader oversees this process and facilitates discussion; team members as well as other wiki contributors so the content is proofread and makes sense. When it is so, we propose on the Community Noticeboard for a final decision, and if the idea is accepted then it is executed by administrators from this team immediately. The depth that this is done should relate to the size of the change.

For something smaller or more vague suggestions (such as ideas to do something without meriting a page to present the plan), our talk page should be used. Note that adjustments or even overhauls of an existing policy should be taken to that policy's talk page. We will discuss the merits and the best way to execute it, and if it's decent/when practical, administrator members of the team will do so.

If it does not substantially change the wiki and there aren't relevant policies to consider, you (a user or an admin) may simply do it if it fits the vision of this team. At worst, you made a change in good faith and it will be discussed or reverted without consequences. You should just 'do it' if it is minor and clearly improves the wiki. If you can edit the page it means you have the right to edit so long as the edit improves what the page is already doing, and if it is protected you always have the right to suggest a change, especially to correct information or technical function. If challenged however, defer to the discussion process and let the original content stay in place. A Team Leader or wiki bureaucrat will arbitrate if needed.

If you wish to be a team leader or make another inquiry, please feel free to use the talk page for that purpose. This section may be updated for clarity, depth and practical use as time goes on.

Agenda

 * Build a design page laying out the features and needed functions of Allpedia. Discuss and then propose officially to be followed.
 * This is the first and primary step of the team; I will create a page for this purpose, and if/when it's approved this agenda will be filled out properly. --Raidarr (talk) 10:24, 17 November 2021 (EST)
