Remove some community resources

Open bjohansebas opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

As we discussed here https://github.com/expressjs/discussions/issues/258, some of the recommended resources on the page are no longer used by the community. Therefore, they will be removed so they are no longer recommended while we look for new options from a new community.

Notes:

  • I can only perform the removal in Spanish and English since those are the languages I am familiar with.

@IamLizu If the other TC members agree, I’d be happy to add "GitHub Discussion" as a place for support.

Thanks for this @bjohansebas, I've been wanting to do this for some time!

Yes, please do add a link to https://github.com/expressjs/discussions.

I see in https://github.com/expressjs/discussions/issues/258 there was discussion of adding the Slack channel. I'd vote in favor of that, but that can be done in another PR; no need to hold up this one.

I can only perform the removal in Spanish and English since those are the languages I am familiar with.

That's understandable, however, I'd like to ask that we try to keep all the langs in sync as much as possible. One does not need to read the language to delete the sections in question. Since the content is well-structured, simply do this:

  1. For Gitter, remove the section with the link to https://gitter.im/.. including the header.
  2. For Mailing list, remove the section with the link to https://groups.google.com/.. including the header.
  3. For IRC, remove the section with mention of #express and freenode including the header.

@bjohansebas Can you please try to do that? If you run into difficulty, please comment here and I'll try to help.

@crandmck I've noticed there are references to the wiki on GitHub. Should I also remove those links?

The only links to the wiki I see are in "Moving to Express 4". We can leave those for now. If/when we decide to delete the wiki, we should do a thorough review of the content there to determine what needs to move into the docs and what can be simply deleted.
