Purpose and name
@ToastHawaii:: what is the purpose of this category? maro21 15:25, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Maro21: Oh sorry, I see that my description on the site is really bad.
- The category Software list collects all pages in which more than one software is documented. This allows users to get an overview of existing software, software categories and comparisons.
- I also had cleanup work in mind:
- 1. create separate pages for software not documented with Software template.
- 2. To complete the properties in the Software template eg. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/3D or https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Street-level_imagery_services
- So that the generation of tables for comparisons can be automated. eg. with OSM_Apps_Catalog or Osm Software Catalog ToastHawaii (talk) 14:59, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
- Your explanation and the category makes sense, now I understand. But wouldn't it be better to name this category "Software lists"/"Lists of software"? Because actually this category is a list of lists of software. That's why my question.
- I would also add it as a subcategory of Category:Software [and not vice versa as it is now]. maro21 21:27, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Maro21: Both suggestions are ok for me. Do you know an easy way to change this? A simple move does not seem to be enough... Feel free to make the required changes. ToastHawaii (talk) 17:14, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
