SLS HOW-TO to openSUSE wiki migration tracking page
SYMPTOM
Need to track migration of http://wiki.suselinuxsupport.de/ (SLS) HowTo's to new openSUSE wiki format. The page was put here for a temporary time frame, in order to ensure its important links survive during the wiki migration process.
CAUSE
Old SLS forum is no longer active. The old SLS HowTos were located here: suselinuxsupport.de HowTos .
.

The following tables track who has volunteered for the effort and will be used to track the progress.

- Guidance as to the openSUSE SDB format for a wiki is here : openSUSE wiki SDB format and wiki creation
- Guidance as to the differences between SDB, Howto and FAQ are here: - Differences between SDB, Howto and FAQ
Link color meaning

- Possible action:
- Create one and import article
- Possible action:
- Blue link - page exists on openSUSE (this) wiki
- Possible actions:
- Create new page with different title
- Merge both pages in one
