What (summary)

Filtered RC for a specific category tag or by badge.

Ex. PortlandTech
Create a page (PortlandTech/RecentChanges) where all changes to any page tagged Category:PortlandTech are listed.

Why this is important

Critical to development and sustainability of communities on AboutUs. This is something that is being championed as a benefit to both the Content and Community teams as we try to build communities around aggregated content (like PortlandTech, or LASIK). It is also believed to be a boon to the Operations team as they can track changes to efforts like Venture Northwest 2007, both for internal reference and (potentially) as "needle moving" metrics in VC pitches.

DoneDone

  1. When all recent changes to any page tagged Category:PortlandTech are displayed and automatically updated on PortlandTech/RecentChanges, the Content Team will be happy.
  2. When a similar test has been constructed and approved by the Community Team.

Discussion

  • Is this idea here to dynamically generate the page every time? So if a page gets added to the category after 10 days of edits, then I check PortlandTech/RecentChanges, will I see those edits in the past? TedErnst (talk) 16:36, 4 December 2007 (PST)
    • Not sure. I think that would be valuable, but if it's a gating factor, not wholly necessary to get this off the ground from a Content team perspective. That said, the deeper this implementation, the better. Is this a feature that the Community team would like/need/require? -- TakKendrick 16:46, 4 December 2007 (PST)
