Hey web team,<br><br>So Alistair showed me how to work the CMS on Thursday, which was great. I've now been through the website and made some notes on what I feel needs updating/changing, which I've typed up below. I've put an '(x)' next to the things I feel I can do and are seemingly uncontraversial, so I'd appreciate if some of the more experienced people on this list could hold off doing them for a week so that I have a chance to get my hands dirty!<br>
<br>Most of the ones I've crossed are to do with content - just to clarify, I'll try and not write this all myself, but try and find content from elsewhere (handbook; flyers), or chase up other people to help me compile new content.<br>
<br>There are some other slightly bigger changes I think would be good, mainly regarding the Blog, and some proposals for the Front Page, Past Actions and Next Actions.<br><br>cheers,<br>Richard<br>__________________<br><br>

5. Past Actions sections<br>6. Get Involved front page<br>7. Get Involved sections<br>8. Blog<br>9. Press<br>
<br><b>1. Front Page</b><br>a Change feature text to 'Post Copenhagen'<br>b Change to non copyright image<br>c Copenhagen - what we did write up (x)<br>d Cop out camp out highlight write up (x)<br>e Climate camp tv needs new blurb with punctuation and better video (x)<br>
f Gathering highlight<br><br><b>2. Blog</b><br>a Needs a newer blog post (x)<br>b Climate Campers Online needs to pick up Indymedia DK and other blogs<br><br><b>3. Next Actions</b><br>a Come to the Gathering - image, text, change the links<br>
b Remove Copenhagen from the next Actions box<br>c Proposal: What about the Mainshill Solidarity camp as Ongoing?<br>d E.On F.Off needs updates (like Kingsnorth beings shelved; youtube videos; Ratcliffe.) (x)<br><br><b>4. Past Actions front page</b><br>
a Copenhagen needs to go there<br>b Trafalgar Square write up? (x)<br>c Where do local actions like Didcott etc go?<br>d Climate Camp Scotland and Wales? Currently takes three links to get to Scot, 2 to Wales, 1 for England.<br>
e Proposal, putting the Past Actions in chronological order:<br>(Bigger) Copenhagen - Trafalgar Square<br>(Smaller) Swoop - Blackheath - Wales - Scotland<br>(Smaller) G20 - Kingsnorth - Heathrow - Drax<br><br><b>5. Past Actions sections</b><br>
a Summaries needed for each action -perhaps around 400 words, plus a video (or photo if no video available) Slideshows would be good.<br>b Heathrow info is on a previous website somewhere (x)<br>c Does the same go for Drax? (x)<br>
d Kingsnorth info is at old.climatecamp, just needs to be migrated (though the radio link no longer works; would be good to get this up again) (x)<br>e Swoop banner could change, and we need one of the subsequent videos there, not Fences (x)<br>
f Blackheath needs a video (x)<br><b><br>6. Get Involved front page</b><br>a Needs to move emphasis to local groups (top of list, etc)<br>b About should be further up (x)<br>c the two lists don't correspond<br>d Delete the weird advert at the bottom (x)<br>
e Maybe it could be more like the other front pages, with pictures and jumpy text boxes?<br><b><br>7. Get Involved sections</b><br>a Get Educated - could do with some politics. links? resources? PDFs? (x)<br>b How we work - could have updates from the Handbook (x)<br>
c Working Groups - lists don't correspond; several need updating or 'archiving' (x)<br>d Local Groups - could these have blogs on them, and then aggregated to the main blog?<br>e Spread the Word - this is basically the page of the Networking and Outreach working groups. Perhaps they could have some input to this page? (x)<br>
f About Us - update text. Make Principles and Unity parts more separate, and flag them up more. (x)<br>g Take Direct Action - this currently serves no functional use as a page<br>h Other Events - currently just an advert for a bygone ActionAid event<br>
<br><b>8. Blog</b><br>a Aggregate from local blogs, and also working group blogs?<br><br><b>9. Press</b><br>a Do we need the NUJ and Marc V things up there? (x)<br>b Could separate press stories by month to make them easier to read<br>
