General notes* on how you can contribute to make the wiki a better place (* these are general ideas and not a guideline):
Contents
Pinephone article
Required
- The next batch needs to be added to the article (intro, hardware revisions section etc.)
- A proper warning in the introduction section about the state of the software, goal of the project, at which users the phone is marketed towards
- Battery and charging safety warnings (not under pillow, no heat build-up, compatible chargers, handling of the battery etc.)
- Make the articles ready for BSD and other OSes, too Linux-specific right now
- A support section, directing users towards the community chat in case of issues
- Better structure of the "first time installation" paragraph
- (documentation of the) mainline status of the phone is a big point people could look into
Topics
- Deep sleep and push notifications missing
- Sensors, battery and temperature readings
- GPS
- Safety, thermal emergency shutdown
- Charging
- Deep sleep
Improvements
- Battery section doesn't look that good (outdated picture, random lists in the section)
- "Carrier support" overhaul (hard to find, hard to maintain, goals of the section)
- Accessory compatibility in general (especially: hard to maintain, goals of the section/lists, how is it tested, how good is the information quality for readers etc.)
- Software section needs to be updated (for example removal of "What works, what doesn't", style updates, link checks)
- Installation section should be better readable -> graphics, pictures, structure etc.-
- Killswitches function needs to be checked according to schematics
Quality
- Simplification of the currently used English language
- Some graphical elements such as boxes wouldn't hurt
- Kernel commands to read the sensors, similar to the postmarketOS wiki article (might be too OS-specific for the OS-agnostic wiki -> different variants for different OSes?)
- More mentions of the devs, maybe a dedicated section
Long-term goals
- Good readability
- Nice Graphics
- Article needs to be structured and logical (always important to read it from the eyes of an new user)
- Secondary goal: prevent Pine's support from being drowned with unnecessary support mails if they can also ask in the chat or read the wiki
- Independently of an user reading the wiki or not, the wiki article is likely too complicated. People asking questions in chat = the article needs to be improved
