Hi there! While this is more a discussion internal to the Events Team, I would like to raise it up to a broader audience (once and for all, even this is only a hope). Currently, the "entry" page is DebianEvents [1]. I would have preferred to simply have it as Events, for two reasons: we are on the Debian wiki and most of the events Debian participate are not organized by Debian, thus no distinction needed [2]. Nevertheless, this is a minor problem. [1] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents> [2] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents#Detailed_information> That page has a structural problem, given that the information in the section "Adding a new event" [3] do not reflect the links just after that section. The current instruction advises to use the name "de/2012/LinuxTag" (country code, year, event name), while OTOH the links below are for events related to a language: * DebianEvents/de: Events in the German-speaking countries * DebianEvents/fr: Events in the French-speaking countries * DebianEventsNordic: Events in the Nordic region (i.e. Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark) * DebianLatinoamerica/LocalMeetings: meetings in Latin American countries [3] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents#Adding_a_new_event> I would enforce the "country-code/year/event-name" policy, which I know also means quite a lot of changes. Also because otherwise we could end up having language "middleware" pages [4], which should be avoided IMHO. [4] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents/fr/> Actually, I discovered this because after having created the wiki page for the RMLL 2012 [5] and having sent the coordination email [6] someone privately told me about an existing page for the same event [7]. I have now merged the two pages, redirecting the fr [7] to the ch one [6].
