Category: website Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Hans Fr. Nordhaug (hansfn) Assigned to: Earnie Boyd (earnie) Summary: Wiki issue and MSYS updates on the wiki Initial Comment: Hi, I just created an account on the Wiki / http://www.mingw.org to improve some of the documentation for MSYS, but no Edit tab appeared. So I'm posting here: 1) Shouldn't http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS point to http://www.mingw.org/faq/How_do_I_install_MSYS for the old installation instructions or maybe just delete http://www.mingw.org/faq/How_do_I_install_MSYS 2) There should be a section about how to configure the MSYS terminal window (for example on http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MSYS) - the text on http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.mingw.msys/3930 could be used. I think that was all. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Hans Fr. Nordhaug (hansfn) Date: 2011-10-31 08:12 Message: Oh my god, so many errors in such a short text: "I though it was necessary to request permission on the mailing" should of course be "I though it wasn't necessary to request permission on the mailing" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hans Fr. Nordhaug (hansfn) Date: 2011-10-31 08:10 Message: And English is clearly not my native language: "just edit existing once" should be "just edit existing ones". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Hans Fr. Nordhaug (hansfn) Date: 2011-10-31 08:08 Message: Earnie, I have carefully read http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MinGWiki_Pages Let me quote: ----- Second: You must request access to create pages Due to SPAM control we do not allow the creation of wiki pages to new users until that user requests permission to do so on the mingw-users mail list. ---- Since I wasn't planning to create any new pages, just edit existing once, I though it was necessary to request permission on the mailing. I did find your reply slightly impolite, but I guess you just thought I was a moron, right? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Earnie Boyd (earnie) Date: 2011-10-30 22:57 Message: And since you want to create or edit documentation on the wiki then your task is to first learn to read the documentation that tells you how to do that. But I'll have to really think about doing so now, since you've proven not to be able to read the first item in the Documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=202435&aid=3430204&group_id=2435 |
