Bug#673993: wiki.debian.org: please clarify the structure for DebianEvents/*

Package: wiki.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: events <at> debian.org
Usertags: events-list

Hi there!

While this is more a discussion internal to the Events Team, I would
like to raise it up to a broader audience (once and for all, even this
is only a hope).

Currently, the "entry" page is DebianEvents [1].  I would have preferred
to simply have it as Events, for two reasons: we are on the Debian wiki
and most of the events Debian participate are not organized by Debian,
thus no distinction needed [2].  Nevertheless, this is a minor problem.

[1] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents>
[2] <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents#Detailed_information>

That page has a structural problem, given that the information in the
section "Adding a new event" [3] do not reflect the links just after
that section.  The current instruction advises to use the name
"de/2012/LinuxTag" (country code, year, event name), while OTOH the
links below are for events related to a language:

* DebianEvents/de: Events in the German-speaking countries
* DebianEvents/fr: Events in the French-speaking countries 
* DebianEventsNordic: Events in the Nordic region (i.e. Iceland, Norway,
                      Sweden, Finland, Denmark)
* DebianLatinoamerica/LocalMeetings: meetings in Latin American
