Duplicate Image

It appears that your Image:Right side of electronics box.jpg & Image:Left side of electronics box.jpg photos are the same? You should be able to visit the page of the one that's wrong and upload the correct version of it. --Rjf 18:49, 26 April 2007 (CDT)

Thanks, I got that fixed. Chris

Final Push into Single Instruction page.

It appears that you are moving sections of the doc pages into a single page, which is fine, it looks pretty good... Although we'll loose all of the edit history of those who contributed to it, I suppose we can just credit them all somewhere. There is also a method for creating small pages, which can then be included in multiple other pages, I'm not sure if each main section should be turned into such a template or not, something to consider? The CAN-View install section is such a page which the PiPrius and PriusPlus projctes both reference, templates can do more advanced stuff. For example, if you visited the first sections template directly it might display a menu with links to the top of the project and the other pages, but if that same section (and all the others) were included in a single article, perhaps for printing, then those menus wouldn't show... Anyway, I mostly wanted to make sure that the original content got erased as you moved it into the single article, so we don't get confused with two versions of some text... ps. I'll be away for a few weeks, checking in slightly less often... --Rjf 21:40, 13 July 2007 (CDT)

Re: Final Push

Hi Ryan, Yes, I did combine everything into one main page, and like you said, we will want to get rid of the other pages so we don't have duplicate data, but I wanted to leave them for a little bit just until I am certain that I have everything pulled off of them. As far as crediting people, I think its just best to credit them and delete the old pages (although, other than the initial page creations by anonymous IP addresses, for the most part you and I are the only ones to edit them. I really like the idea of having as much on the the page (as opposed to templates) as possible to make for easy editing. We are hoping that DIY converters will help give back to the project and update/correct/expand some of the documentation as they do their own conversions, so the easier it is to edit, I think the better. I don't think we need to include stuff on separate pages, so that shouldn't be an issue (if it ever does become one, we can move things later.) I'm thinking that at some point in the near future we may want to break the step-by-step instructions into 2 pages (although, in the near future, apparently the 2 mounting methods we currently have are going away and will be replaced by a pre-fabricated box, so a good chunk of documentation will go away (saved in history somewhere of course), so maybe we won't need to.)

I think I'm going to unlink the pages from the RawData page just to help reduce any possible confusion, and I'll just type in the URL manually - I just wanted to make sure you didn't delete them till I was ready to have them deleted! :)

I will also be on vacation, from Jul 18 -> Aug 5th, so thats why I'm pushing really hard right now.
