| == Saintapedia Birthday - 2017 ==
| |
| The 7th Saintapedia Birthday is focusing on updating the [[Leadership]] article, which should house every major organization's Leadership infobox. Leadership infoboxes are [[templates]] that list major organizational leadership position, who holds them (or if they are vacant), and how long they have been in the leadership position.
| |
|
| |
| Since a large majority of the leadership position are filled with [[Political appointees]], the [[Plum Book (Department of Energy)|Department of Energy's section]] of the 2016 [[Plum Book]] has been added to Saintapedia. The listings, which have been broken out by organization, includes:
| |
| * Position Title
| |
| * Name of Incumbent
| |
| * Type of Appointment
| |
| * Pay Plan/Pay Grade
| |
| * Location
| |
|
| |
| Positions, if vacant or acting due to a political appointee departure, should have the "Since" date of January 20th. The {{XLSLink|DOE Secretarial Officers.xls|DOE Secretarial Officers}} and {{XLSLink|Heads of Departmental Elements.xlsx|Heads of Departmental Elements}}, both dated January 23, 2017, should also be helpful in that effort.

| === How to modify Leadership infoboxes ===
| |
| [[File:Leadership infobox edit link.png|300px|thumbnail|right|Location of "Edit" link where changes can be made to the Infobox]]
| |
| # Click on the "Edit" link at the bottom right corner of the Infobox you wish to change
| |
| # Make an changes you know are needed to existing entries. Please remember each entry has a "Position," "Person," and "Since." Person's name ideally would be [[wikified]] with (Acting) outside of the link. The Since can be left vacant if the information is not known.
| |
| # To add additional positions
| |
| ## Copy the last entry, including the three lines listed above
| |
| ## Paste it below the last entry
| |
| ## Add one to each of the new entries. For example, change "Position6" to "Position7"; change "Person6" to "Person7"; and "Since6" to "Since7." Please do keep the pipe (|) intact on each line.
| |
| # Update "Reviewed" with today's date. If there is not a reviewed, please add "<code>|Reviewed = </code>" below the last entry.
| |
| # Add an [[edit summary]].
| |
| # Save the page
| |
|
| |
| === Why leadership infoboxes? ===
| |
| * Information on public websites can be difficult to find or buried in image [[organization charts]].
| |
| * Charts only have current individuals in the positions, while Saintapedia allows for historic individuals to be known.
| |
| * Saintapedia allows that historic content to be maintained. Past individuals who have held leadership positions often have their biographies removed from the public website when they leave the position.
| |
| * Biographies on Saintapedia can be [[wikified]] which allows them to become much more useful and interactive.
| |
| * See [[#How these boxes are used|How these boxes are used]] for more details how the information can easily be reused.
| |
|
| |
| === How infoboxes are used ===
| |
| The Leadership infoboxes follow the Saintapedia model of creating/maintaining content in one place and reusing it throughout the wiki. The infoboxes should be placed on:
| |
| * organization main Saintapedia article (possibly aligned to the left rather than to the right)
| |
| * organization sub-offices articles
| |
| * articles about each of the leadership positions
| |
| * biography articles of those who have held leadership positions in the organization in the past (so individuals can know who succeeded him or her)
| |
| * article about those who currently hold leadership roles
| |
| * [[Leadership]] article
