Adding Missing wiki pages for projects!
Hello,
I compiled a comprehensive list of missing wiki at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Apache_Software_Foundation and identified duplicate/missing links. File attached
Following projects are missing link in internal wiki of Commons collective at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Commons
Apache Commons HttpClient - https://projects.apache.org/project.html?httpcomponents-commons_httpclient
Apache CommonsRDF (Incubating) - https://projects.apache.org/project.html?commonsrdf
Following projects are missing entery at projects page https://projects.apache.org/projects.html
Apache Commons CSV - http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-csv/
Apache Cordova - https://projects.apache.org/project.html?cordova
I wanted to setup wiki pages for these projects. I wanted to ask what will be the minimal data/fields/entries/coloum_names that would be required for the wiki page of a project.
Cheers,
Sheece

Given the open nature of Wikipedia, I'd probably suggest simply sending
the project a link to the page when it's created. They can then make any
edits they want, eg if something about the project was misunderstood, but
without volunteers being blocked awaiting a project's "blessing"
When we added the page for Apache Tika (the lack of which inspired this
help-wanted task!), we did get a little bit of push-back from experienced
wikipedians until we added all the categories, info-boxes, citations etc.
It might be worth asking on a suitable Wikipedia forum (the talk page for
the ASF category perhaps?) for confirmation of the "viable minimum", to
make sure we abide by the wikipedia community norms on this sort of thing.
Thanks
Nick

I don't follow why some are listed as requiring a rename. What, for
example, is the issue with Apache POI?

That moved to https://hc.apache.org

That is still in the
incubator:http://incubator.apache.org/projects/commonsrdf.html
The intended destination is Apache Commons but the incubator is its
current home.

That is more a question for wikipedia. From our point of view, anything
is better than nothing as long as it is accurate. If you write something
on behalf of the project, I'd recommend getting the project to review it.
