liveslak doesn't seem to be present on Wikipedia

FlinchX · 11-16-2017, 06:11 AM

I was randomly browsing Wikipedia and I've noticed that there's no page for liveslak. It is not mentioned here either: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...lackware-based

Could a kind Wikipedia user add it there (unless there's a reason why it shouldn't be there)?

I know that the best way to get something done is to do it yourself, but I'm only browsing the Web anonymously and Wikipedia seems to be unfriendly towards edits coming that way, for obvious reasons.

Hi,

Welcome to LQ!

It is called/named as Slackware Live by Alien Bob. Check out; https://alien.slackbook.org/blog/new...subscription-3

If you wish to add to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slackware

Hope this helps.
Have fun & enjoy!

I do not add my own stuff to Wikipedia out of principle, but if someone wants to write an article about liveslak (name for the scripts) or Slackware Live Edition (name of the resulting Live Operating System ISO) you have my blessing. Or expand the LiveCD and Slackware pages on Wikipedia, which is fine by me too.
Just be sure to use the proper terminology. Names like "LiveSlack" (with capitals and the added 'c') or "Slackware Live" are not correct.
