Category talk:DTS

When I started the SOE KB page I first looked here at what the DTS had to offer. Well, after using that what I observed here, I made the set up for the SOE KB. I did learn from it and maybe it is also usuable for the DTS KB.

Lesson 1
If you enter the DTS KB for the first time, you will see a lot of information. Maybe a bit to much for some one who wants to start a DTS from scratch. A bit of order is needed. An clear overview would be nice.

Lesson 2
While writing articles you easily get into a passionate mood, which mostly results in a lot of talking. Now I still call myself quite young, but leaders younger than me are most of the time not really big lovers of reading. So it might be wise to cut down and edit what is written.


 * Lesson 2 b

To make more paragraphs will help too


 * Lesson 2 c

Adding pictures is great fun and makes an article a lot more attractive to read.

Lesson 3
Finish what you made. I still see links that are made, but no article there or the link is not even made yet. Keep working on it!

Lesson 4
Be proud of what you made! Show it to every one who hasn't heard of the KB yet! It really helps to make other people use the KB and to join working on it too!

No change seen
Well, time for another comment. I just made the one and only page the KB was missing. The Discipelship Training School page! That's really amazing to me! Nobody ever thought about making one. Looks like after making the wellknown SOE page, it is time for me to attack the DTS page too! If no one starts it, I will do.. Like Frodo taking the quest further from Rivendel to Mount Doom! --Little Eagle 21.11 18 April 2008

Name and redirects
Hi everyone. I just wanted to make an observation. My personal opinion is that it's slightly confusing to have DTS redirect to Category:DTS, while if one types in 'Discipleship Training School' for a search, you get the actual Discipleship Training School page, and you would have no idea about the other documents unless you then scroll to the bottom and click on the link for Category:DTS.

Let's perhaps brainstorm a little so that all the information is easily accessible. I might suggest that we reorganize the Discipleship Training School page a little, then merge the list of documents immediately on the Category:DTS page onto the Discipleship Training School page, and finally have 'DTS' redirect go to the Discipleship Training School page.

Maybe this isn't the best idea and is also perhaps too much of a project. However, I think that someone typing in DTS or Discipleship Training into the search should perhaps get the same page. Mikael 14:54, 11 September 2008 (CEST)


 * Hi Makeal. I am so glad you are putting your thoughts down here on better organising the KB. We have tried to have the category pages as the initial page for a subject rather than a main article that then points back to the category page. Of course the advantage of the category page is that all pages tagged with category are listed automatically there.
 * I think we need to have some clearer guidelines on how to structure the KB and work to make it more consistent. I would love to have you push forward with this. Perhaps we could suggest it as an item to talk about at a monthly meeting? cheers, --Kev-The-Hasty 17:19, 11 September 2008 (CEST)
 * I do agree with Kevin. I made a little set up, just to show how I made the SOE page. The DTS is not really my area, because I have never lead one, so I will be really glad if someone has the passion for it to improve it and make it a real clear and accessable page. I don't like the messy way it is right now. So yeah, join our monthly meeting! Little Eagle 23:35, 11 September 2008 (CEST)
 * I couldn't find a date for the next monthly meeting. When is it? Mikael 19:06, 12 September 2008 (CEST)

Wow. Great Video. We may even make an article with a transcript of it. --Pitpat 20:25, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
