Hello hello helloooo! This is Pingouin. The FOLLE is online and accessible to every faerie aware of its URL. How exciting!! But there's barely any content. It's like a little butt-naked baby. Like my own little newborn that I gave birth to and now I'm like WHO GOT ME PREGNANT??
It's you.
Yes, you, dear faerie.
You got me pregnant with your LOVE and THIRST for KNOWLEDGE.

What I'm getting at is
I had a call with the French Government
You have some catching up to do regarding child support
and i only accept writing contributions

🤍🐧🖤 SO LET'S DUMP LOADS AND LOADS OF KNOWLEDGE UP IN THIS FOLLE 🖤🐧🤍

Important stuff before you start doing anything

There's going to be a meeting to properly discuss what the community wants for the library, most likely around the first week of September. We'll establish the publishing and content guidelines, all the stuff to make sure its kept tidy and nice.
If you're curious, if you have big projects, if you want to stare blankly at my face for an hour or so come!! I'll make announcements and stuff before it happens.

This also implies that any content written before that meeting has a tiny chance to be rewritten and an even tinier chance to be removed. So just keep that in mind.

Okay, so how do we actually do this?

 

Guide to write on the FOLLE:

ALWAYS DO A SEARCH BEFORE WRITING SOMETHING!!!!

You might not be as original as you think. Look stuff up and prioritize editing over creating :)

Contenu collaboratif sensible

Disclaimer au debut en mode ce contenu est un contenu collaboratif sensible, si vous ne vous reconnaissez pas dans ce qui y est ecrit n'hesitez pas a ajouter un autre paragraphe eclairant votre point de vue, tout en restant dans une optique d'echange et de discussion ouverte en evitant de tomber dans le pointage de doigt.

FOMO

 

nitty-gritty practicality

You need to login to create/edit content. Right now there is one default account for everyone. The credentials are
Login: default
Password: rj6Q1?V9-b$2r4D;4'y

There is limited space on the server for now, pictures should be okay but any video should be uploaded on a separate drive/website!!

If you are on a computer the options to edit things are on the right under the action dropdown. If you are on your phone they are in the Informations tab at the top.

what should I write about??

Great question! Anything you feel very passionately about and think is hard to carry on from gathering to gathering, hard to remember as a community is a good place to start.

Here is a recipe for a successful and loved FOLLE book:

Of course, this is a suggestion, all of the structural stuff can be addressed later, don't feel forced to fit into this specific thing. 

And here are some topics that have been brought up by the community:
