==Using mediawiki subpages==
 
The wiki currently uses them mostly for language translations, but as soon as I can get a full half day I'll be upgrading mediawiki and installing the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Language_Extension_Bundle MediaWiki_Language_Extension_Bundle] and a few other goodies. Feel free to use subpages as you need, but don't use too many sublevels due language translation and user experience. Thanks [[User:Sam888|Sam888]] ([[User talk:Sam888|talk]]) 03:32, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
 
:: Ok will do, Thanks for looking after the wiki etc .. looking forward to the upgrade. [[User:Gioto|Gioto]] ([[User talk:Gioto|talk]]) 21:50, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
 
==Begging for Help buttons and Help Links in General!==
 
>> ''why do users even have to beg for a help button(s) , moving to issues section!)''
 
  
Mainly because the Gramps project has been around for a long time (big ball of string comes to mind) and with volunteers they do what interest them only. Apart from that I can say that it looks to have been slowly improving with each release see the following issues [https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=8888 8888], [https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=9042 9042], [https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=10919 10919] the last one which has been closed (possibly accidentally as not all of it has been done!) and the associated issues. See https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=GEPS_034:_Improve_usability#Improve_Help_and_Documentations_in_Gramps also.

:: Understood and thanks for the link, just a little frustrated, so much outdated stuff here! I'll keep chipping away at it at least from the wiki side. [[User:Gioto|Gioto]] ([[User talk:Gioto|talk]]) 02:09, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 
==tweaks to the Plugin manager==
 
Hi Gioto,
 
 
Noticed you've been doing some tweaks to the Plugin manager description. Thanks!
 
 
The word 'view' has a different meaning in Gramps and may confuse readers. see https://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_Glossary#view  It best to reserve it for referring to the central pane of the GUI for each Navigator category.  The variants within a navigator Category are view modes. 
 
 
The Plugin manager should be called a dialog or a window instead of a view. I was going to change the term but it looks like you have some ongoing work happening on the page. Didn't want to accidentally revert some of your changes.

::Thnx I do the best I can. I'm aware of the meaning of "view" as I've been using Gramps for a while but I'm guessing in this case most readers are intelligent enough to discern the difference, but if you feel different it is a wiki so go for it and I won't revert any edit you make, but keep in mind I've not introduced the word view I've only moved it up the page have a look at the page before I started the [https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Plugin_Manager_Plugin&diff=74007&oldid=74006 edits]. I'll move on as I see plenty of other outdated pages that need some attention :) [[User:Gioto|Gioto]] ([[User talk:Gioto|talk]]) 08:53, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
