Revision as of 16:28, 26 January 2022
I've been asked to work through the teaching department wiki pages and impose some more order on them. Because things in EVE often have silly mythological names, I'm calling this project Kvasir.
Progress
Currently surveying what's needed and working out where to start
Teaching pages which need TLC
The recordings library
https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/EVE_University_Class_Library.
As Marek has remarked to me, and as I see has been discussed by the dept before, some of these recordings might now be beyond our reach. Then, as a separate problem, some of them are old enough that it's probably best that people not listen to them (the recording of me doing 'Minmatar Ships 102' in *2010* now contains some very out-of-date info!). On the other hand, some might be worth retaining, perhaps especially if they are broader more meta-game-y things. The page could also do with some general cleanup and copy-editing.
Core teaching info pages
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Classes
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Teaching_Department (retain and spruce up)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Joining_the_Faculty (candidate for merging?)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Scheduling_a_class (merge with Teaching classes at EVE University?)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Teaching_Classes_at_EVE_University (retain, with some pages merging into it; clarify and copy-edit)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Attending_classes (retain, but make sure there's a straightforward summary early on--right now, the page's length and complexity makes it look like attending class is harder than it is!)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Teaching_classes (move to a clearer name: this is about pedagogy, not about how to teach a class, which is covered by a different page; 'Teaching guide', perhaps?)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Recommended_Curriculum (suggest deletion)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Editing_and_uploading_class_recordings (do we still do this?)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/List_of_EVE_University_teachers (We no longer use the teacher title in this way. Move professors to new professors page (like the record of CCI completions) and cleanse the rest)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Syllabus_Template (suggest deletion, as we no longer use syllabi)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/User:Marek_Holmberg/ScedulingAClass (suggest stripping the category tag out of this!)
- https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Category:Teaching_Resources (further investigation and listing needed)
There's a fair bit of redundancy across some of these, and I think there's probably a good case for merging some of them. And again more general clean-up and editing wouldn't go to waste. Observation: 'Classes' and 'Syllabi' subcategories seem to contain suspiciously similar sets of things.
It'd be great for those classes that remain to have a little shared links sidebar like the
{{Weapon Systems Links}} one.
Deprecated class syllabi
A lot of these are still kicking around on the wiki. They are perhaps a less immediate problem, but we could consider whether some or all could be gently removed--as they can still turn up in Google results &c. Or, a less invasive option, we could make the deprecated class box that appears at the top of each of these more prominent and more warning-coloured.
