So this is how Wikipedia works these days, everyone writes articles about
their own stuff?
Well, I'm not a Calligra author (in fact I'm longer a Wikipedian than a KDE
member).
Ah, okay, sorry, do not yet have a complete picture of all the people involved
in Calligra, so misassumed here.
The best way for official members is to publish a blog post about
fact that Wikipedia authors can use as reference. Eg. I have to admit that I
called Words a fork of KWord on WP because the early Calligra website
called Words "a word processor created from KWord" or something like that.
It required a blog post by Boemann to get that straight.
:)
* Sometimes only half of the program names are used, like just "Words" or
"Sheets". But that should be always "Calligra Words" or "Calligra Sheets",
as this is the official full name.
IMO that's part of editorial judgment for better readability. In their
dedicated articles the actual names are explained, eg. "Calligra Words" is
one article but another is "Karbon (software)".
LibreOffice has something similar:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice#Included_applications
That table calls the word processor Writer but its article states that the
full name is LibreOffice Writer.
Hm. Just that this blurs the real name a little. If I had to decide, I would
insist in the full name everywhere, no made up short forms.
After all the LibreOffice authors use the short forms you mention themselves,
see e.g. http://www.libreoffice.org/features/writer/
This is different in Calligra. Its e.g. always "Calligra Words". Oh wait, not.
At least the urls are just calligra.org/words/, the icon on the first page
have just a short form, and the big picture on e.g. calligra.org/words/ also
has just "Words" in it. Leftovers, or still current state?
And calligra.org/flow/ is unsure if the full name is "Calligra Flow" or
"Flow". Same for "Calligra Plan".
userbase.kde.org/Calligra also needs an update, in any case. Anyone working on
this, and would coordinate what is updated by whom? I would spent some time on
that, tonight.
I've looked through and corrected what I saw was wrong, with the
exception of KChart and KFormulas because I have no idea what would need
to be corrected there. So if someone could look at those that'd be great.
In general, other real Calligra devs and especially the Calligra marketing
people should better chime in here, while I chime out :)
Cheers
Friedrich
