Hi Friends,
Per the commitment I've made to regularly review the Around the Internet
page (because it's jam-packed with 3rd party links); my current review finds a
couple of problems I'm not sure how to handle. So I need some input from the
community on these. https://inkscape.org/en/community/inkscape-around-internet/
In the Multiple-Artist Collections section:
1 -- Wikimedia Commons - Category:Created with Inkscape
(http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Created_with_Inkscape)
The page which is linked is showing a red-colored sort of warning about
how it's categorized. Half of the page is giving info about it. I'm not very
familiar with how the Wikipedia/Wikimedia pages are created or edited, so if
this is a problem which needs to be fixed, I can't do it. Maybe it's ok the way
it is, but I thought I would ask those who know more than I do about it.
As best as I can understand the warning info, it sounds like the page
might need some significant attention. Questions:
a -- Is this something that should be added to the Community To-Do List page
on the Inkscape website?
b -- Or maybe it's a quick fix which someone could do in the near future?
c -- Or should the item just be deleted from Around the Internet page?
d -- Or is there a better link to access the Inkscape images on Wikimedia?
2 -- Museum of Sodipodi and Inkscape About Screens
(http://gould.cx/ted/ink-about/)
The linked page gives a 404 Not Found error. Just one question:
a -- I guess I've seen a lot of the About screen contest images in the
gallery. Is this the best URL for finding them?
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/?q=about Or is there a better one?
Thanks for comments or suggestions :-)
All best,
brynn

- The warning isn't too relevant, but if it bothers you, use this page:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_created_with_Inkscape
(or, if you have time for it, you could fix the images that are listed
on the page you linked on wikimedia, by adding/using the correct
template for them, or ask someone to do it (but really, not our job) -
and don't ask me how that works, I don't know.)

You could link to:
- The real about screens:
https://inkscape.org/de/community/about-screen-contests/ (see bottom of
page)
https://inkscape.org/de/~inkscape/galleries/about-screens/
- The category with all of them:
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/

Oh, I didn't make that link, or add that item. Someone else put it there.
It's just that warning takes up the whole first 2 page-downs there, so I thought
it would be nicer if there was an alternative without it. I looked at what you
suggested
(https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_created_with_Inkscape) but it
doesn't really contain images - just a few links to various collections. And
the best ones are the last.
Of the few links it contains, this one looks like the best choice, at least to
me: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Valid_SVG_created_with_Inkscape
It looks like this one contains more images though:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unspec_SVG_created_with_Inkscape
If no one else replies (like maybe whoever entered that item in the first place)
maybe I'll use this one:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Valid_SVG_created_with_Inkscape.
Oh yeah, this is what I was looking for:
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/ But I couldn't find it.
Is there any way to browse to it via site navigation? Or do you just have to
know it's there?
I also didn't know about this page:
https://inkscape.org/de/community/about-screen-contests/ How can you find it by
navigating the site? It's not in Community menu.
Thanks again,

It's just that warning takes up the whole first 2 page-downs there, so I
thought it would be nicer if there was an alternative without it. I

but it doesn't really contain images - just a few links to various
collections. And the best ones are the last.
- Yes, that's the reason for the warning. The images on that page with
the warning shouldn't be there. It should all be categories, for Wikimedia.
So you either get a warning, and images, until someone works on fixing
it - or just a list of folders, for that super-category.
Of the few links it contains, this one looks like the best choice, at
least to me:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Valid_SVG_created_with_Inkscape
It looks like this one contains more images though:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unspec_SVG_created_with_Inkscape

first place) maybe I'll use this one:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Valid_SVG_created_with_Inkscape.
- Sounds good (no time to look, but I think it should be fine).
Oh yeah, this is what I was looking for:
https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/ But I couldn't
find it. Is there any way to browse to it via site navigation? Or do
you just have to know it's there?
- No, currently you need to have it in your browser history or in your
head to remember... It's not marked as 'filterable'.
I also didn't know about this page:
https://inkscape.org/de/community/about-screen-contests/ How can you
find it by navigating the site? It's not in Community menu.
- It has been linked from the corresponding news article when we needed
it. It's only used and updated when there is an active contest. There
are a couple more pages of that kind, I think. One for board vote, at
least, and some WIP pages that have all been forgotten about by their
author. Visit the Pages link in the admin interface to see the full list.

Thanks again,
