Let's create a How-To / Documentation Category in forums?

[LaFayette]

Feels like our how-to documents, and general documentation threads are a bit scattered. I'm thinking it'll be a bit easier to find, organize and maintain those if we had a single dedicated category for it.

Ideally too, we would move each one to a more durable documentation home, namely on the website or into the documentation of the actual codebase. Short of that though, having a category should help us stay a bit more organized and make what we have much easier to find.

Thoughts?

@LaFayette makes sense guess folks normally do wikis for these things but not sure if thats still in fashion or watnot

[LaFayette]

@ubernaut Ideally documentation is in one of these two places:

• https://triplea-game.org/user-guide/
• https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/tree/main/docs

Short of that though, at least organizing what we have will make it more valuable and help us move that documentation (perhaps one day) to one of the better locations.

Wiki is not bad idea, but has a few issues.

@LaFayette Note that I already have a wiki, https://axisandallies.fandom.com/wiki/Axis_%26_Allies_Wikipedia

It could be a handy space to store documentation of various sorts.

@RogerCooper The wiki option was looked at some time ago, you may recall the thread. 'fandom' uses an older wiki syntax and would make a transition to it not awesome. We'd have to rewrite all of our docs in the that syntax.

Axis and Allies meanwhile is a trademarked term owned by Hasbro and we can not, should not, have anything official for TripleA that is associated with that trademark.

Hosting our documentation under a URL with a trade marked term that we do not own could create an incorrect perception of an affiliation.
