====== Next Generation Wiki ======

As mentioned multiple times [[/MoinMoin|MoinMoin]] is heavily outdated hence we will start on migrating from [[https://moinmo.in|MoinMoin]] to [[https://dokuwiki.org|DokuWiki]].

I will setup the notes and changes as required here.

Anyone wants to give some inputs please feel free to modify or add notes here.

===== Important Notes =====
[[/DavidWolfskill|DavidWolfskill]]
  * No objection.

[[/PhilipPaeps|PhilipPaeps]]
  * Preserve all existing links.
  * Use elbarto.nyi for this work.
  * Be careful while %%PoC%% to block Search Engine Crawlers indexing the intermediate pages
  * Perhaps as part of the migration, a header should be added to every page stating that it has been migrated from [[/MoinMoin|MoinMoin]] and not touched since.  Eventually, that will give us an idea of which content is alive and loved and which is stale and can be pruned.

[[/SergioCarlavilla|SergioCarlavilla]] (Will need a good %%FreeBSD%% inspired theme)
  * Will help with related themes

[[/BaptistDaroussin|BaptistDaroussin]]
  * The migration should focus not on a forever backward compat, but on a onshot compat, aka the day we flip the switch, no new dead links

[[/MarkLinimon|MarkLinimon]]
  * [[Wiki/About/MoinMoin|Personal Notes]]
  * Contribution Policy
  * Expiration Policy(If you have not touched it in N years, we may feel free to delete it. Or, if after contacted, etc. N should be large, like 5 or something)
  * %%FreeBSD%% Community Standard
  * [[WikiFixitGroup/WorkArea/NewWiki|Also has some work done]]

[[/JohnBaldwin|JohnBaldwin]]
  * Note that there are a few "historical" pages which I'd like to keep around. (A list of possible pages would be really helpful here)

===== Tools =====
I am looking into different tools and will update here.

==== moin2doku ====
  * [[https://github.com/glensc/moin2doku|Moin2Doku]] is a converter but it requires older versions of [[/MoinMoin|MoinMoin]] and Dokuwiki. I will try to create a VM with some older versions and see how it goes.

==== moindump ====
  * [[http://moinmo.in/MoinDump|MoinDump]] Creates a flat hierarchy html outputs which is somewhat useful to be used with [[https://pandoc.org|pandoc]] but will involve some manual works. Need to explore

==== WikiMigration ====
  * [[https://github.com/tnabtaf/WikiMigration|WikiMigration]] is another tool which looks promising as it creates the both creole/html outputs in a similar directory layout which then can be used with [[https://pandoc.org|pandoc]]

===== Caveats =====
  * [[https://dokuwiki.org|DokuWiki]] [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/pagename|does not support CamelCase filenames]] which is the default in [[/MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]
