WikiDocs Transclusion Editor

What is a Transclusion Editor

TransclusionEditors are MusicBrainzContributors who have the permission to change the version of the transcluded WikiDocs documents. The users who currently have this permission are:

• WolfSong (wolfsong) [WikiDocs maintainer]

• DonRedman (donredman)

• LukasLalinsky (lukz)

• RobertKaye (rob)

• MLL (mll)

• dmppanda (dmppanda)

• murdos (murdos)

This list is edited by hand and for informative purposes only. The actual rights management is done within the MusicBrainzServer

How To Transclude a WikiDocs Page

Only TransclusionEditors are able to do this. Go to the Wiki Transclusion Table. There you will see lines like the example below, which can be edited or removed; new ones can also be added. When a WikiDocs page has been edited by a fellow WikiZen and the changes conform with the style guidelines and other social aspects, and most important, make the documentation better - then the change should be reflected on the main server. To do this, use the Edit button to update to the revision number of the page in the transclusion table.

• Please be very careful to enter the correct WikiName and revision number, they are not checked for correctness.

If you add a page to the transclusion table you take some responsibility for that page. You should show it, by

• subscribing to the corresponding WikiPage,

• adding a note to the bottom (just before the categories) that you're monitoring this WikiDocsPage.
  To do this, use the Card Cards/WikiDocsPageMonitoredBy: [[Card(Cards/WikiDocsPageMonitoredBy TransclusionEditorName)]].

Also make sure

• each WikiDocsPage is of CategoryWikiDocsPage,

• each WikiDocsPage is protected by the AccessControlList:

  ## DontRenameWikiDocsPages!
  #acl -All:delete Default

  ACL cannot be modified by normal Wiki users, you will need a member of the AdminGroup to do that for you.

Old WikiDocs

Before the current WikiDocs using the MainWiki and the TransclusionTable, there was an old WikiDocs that was a separate Wiki; this deprecated version used URLs like musicbrainz.org/wd/PageName but these should not be used any more.
