Wiki: Platforms

Today I noticed that https://dev.archive.openwrt.org/wiki/platforms is refering to openwrt.org for up-to-date information regarding platforms.

Since https://openwrt.org/docs/platforms/start didn't reflect what was on the dev-page, I imported the table, linked the targets to existing pages, and created developer pages similar to the ones on https://dev.archive.openwrt.org.

In order to re-use the information of the developers on other pages, I added dataentries to the developer pages, containing basically the same information as on the old developer pages, i.e. email, irc, website, targets/platforms.

This way we don't need to take care of adding a new developer to https://openwrt.org/about : Simply add a new developer at https://openwrt.org/developers/start and he will automatically show up on the about page, and also on the target pages (information re-use via dataentries/datatables).

Thanks. So is it safe to update https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/add.new.platform to reference
https://openwrt.org/docs/platforms/start instead of https://dev.openwrt.org/wiki/platforms (which actually redirects to https://dev.archive.openwrt.org/wiki/platforms)?

Yes, correct.
