====== Template for Metric ====== | ====== Template for Metric ====== | ||
- | The following is a draft for the template that all 'Metric Detail' pages can follow. | + | Page permanently moved to |
- | + | https://github.com/chaoss/metrics/blob/master/activity-metrics/metric-template.md | |
- | The template is inspired by the __[[https://istheory.byu.edu/wiki/Signaling|IS Theories Wiki]]__. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | ===== Instructions ===== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | To create a new 'Metric Detail' page follow these steps: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | - In the __[[oss-health-metrics:metrics|metrics list]]__, convert the name of a metric into a link | + | |
- | - The link looks like this: ''%%__[[oss-health-metrics:metrics:name-of-metric|Name of Metric]]__%%''. | + | |
- | - **Important:** The namespace ''oss-health-metrics:metrics:'' places the page in the right location of the wiki and has to be there. | + | |
- | - Before the verticle bar, the //Name of Metric// should be lower case and spaces replaced by hyphens. | + | |
- | - Copy the text below the horizontal bar into the new wiki page. | + | |
- | - Remove explanations in all sections and leave sections empty if no information is available at the moment. | + | |
- | - **Important:** Do not delete a section heading because we want all 'Metric Detail' pages to be structured the same. | + | |
