Project summary/background

In preparation for system migration, we would like to do a full scan of all of our documentation pages in Confluence. This project involves checking each page in the TS documentation site and recording some basic info about that page in a spreadsheet.

Project instructions

  • Open this spreadsheet in Google Drive: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10YHRfCi5UPFRn_-1BHUp3pdg9vJmYJmMJbHzUtwWB8o/edit#gid=0

  • Open the TS Documentation site

  • Note any entries already in the spreadsheet.

  • In the TS site, begin at the next page in sequence, moving from the top down in the navigation menu.

    • Include top-level pages like “Authorities,” “Cataloging,” “Database quality,” etc. Even though these pages gather lists of procedures and are more navigational than instructional, we still want their info.

  • Briefly look over the page and fill out the columns as indicated.

    • The Status column has a dropdown list of values for you to choose from:

      • current (info looks accurate, no former staff mentioned, has a recent updated date in the column on the right side, etc.)

      • needs work (may have “needs work” tag, has clearly outdated content, has warning boxes about incomplete info, etc.)

      • placeholder (will be a blank or stub page, often with “placeholder” in the title)

  • Rinse and repeat!

Info

Appropriate for any TS staff.
