Wiki meet 7th August ,2024 Minutes

From WIKI FOSSCELL NITC

wiki meet (07/08/24)

the minutes of the wiki meet held on 7th August ,2024 are as follows.

Goals For wiki for the coming 6 months

  1. extending wiki usage through B23:
    Direct student doubts regarding course work,clubs ,professors and nitc as a whole to wiki instead of answering each and every question .this can be used as an effective strategy to introduce students to wiki. for this wiki links and brief discussions of the same will be sent to B24 groups
  2. Create a "intro to nitc/college" page :
    push it through members of the community and SGC maybe . B23's were sent a seperate file but instead we hope we can push that through wiki this time.
  3. Creating a basic map of NITC for B24's to satisfy their curiosity . simplified tree type map is also sufficent . but as per the suggestion of @AkhilT we think that using an extension that links open street maps and wiki NITC is a better solution.
  1. Add academic calenders to wiki for easy access
    can help attract more traffic to the site as it is easier than finding the pdf of the same and downloading it.
  2. simplification of wiki homepage:
    the ` meeting reached consensus that the current wiki homepage is cluttered and is not user friendly especially in the case of first time users . Ideas for the reorganisation of the homepage is under discussion . the revised homepage should definitely provide easy access to the above mentioned NITC Maps project and the academic callender project.
  3. Pubish the NITC wiki app
  4. Add more photos to wiki
  5. update various course related pages :
    encourage B24 students to do the same.
  6. Create a LinkedIn page for wiki and attempt to make wiki a more legitmate platform that documents the events happening within NITC for the future.
