Tango.info milonga

THIS IS A PROPOSAL - IT IS NOT IMPLEMENTED YET

This is for repeated milongas, single milongas should use add event

Primary Data Storage

Article title

Since page renaming is disabled for regular users, only relativly stable data should go into the title. Location and day of week are typically stable. Milongas that are not stable in that respect should use single event registration: add event.

Other data which is harder to compress or typically less stable goes into template:milonga. Coordinates are typically stable but on article creation they may be unavailable.

• datetime
  • Weekday numbers according to ISO 8601, 1 = monday ... 7 = sunday
  • Repetition numbers - either here or in template : see tango.info weekday repetition
• location
  • in title - alpha-2 country code or ISO 3166-2 subdivision code or UN/LOCODE city code
  • in template - allow more specific, e.g. coordinates
• event type - could go into the iCal category field
  • alpha-1 code = m
• summary - could go into the iCal summary field

TODO: The order of the elements is not decided yet. When-Where-What is used by tango.info one-time event.

Seasonal milongas (outdoor) should have start year in the title and the end date in the template.

Template:milonga

Template:milonga will have additional fields. They will be defined at Template:milonga/doc

Text body

Free text, or maybe a table which has data for specific dates

Secondary Data Storage

There will be a meta table, filled with processed data from the title and template.
