Hi all,
[CCing the general list as this has impacts on the general site structure]
while working with Daniele, Davide, Gianluca, Cristian and a few others on how
to organize the different courses version, we came up with the idea to link
all subjects to a "disambiguation" page, which contains references to the real
courses, whether they are collaborative (i.e. written natively on WikiToLearn)
or imported after a donation.
An example of the user journey is worth a thousand words:
Main Page -> Physics -> Quantum Mechanics -> Quantum Mechanics (collaborative
version)
note: all those pages are in the first level, not subpages.
When there is not a collaborative version of a certain course, the user is
invited to create one.
You can see a preliminary version of this in action here:
http://it.wikitolearn.org/Template:Disambigua
(the boilerplate text is in Italian, but it's for demonstration purposes only)
All the content would then be identified with the usual 3-level schematic, so:
Quantum Mechanics (collaborative version)/Harmonic Oscillator/Free Harmonic
oscillator
I think this provides a very efficient solution to hosting many competitive
version of the material.
Feedback?
Bye,
-Riccardo
