Wikipedia Strawberry English version
-
I have been using Strawberry for a few weeks now and frankly I found what I missed for a long time. A full featured player with excellent playback. Thank you. I just joined this forum....
I have done a lot of work on Wikipedia in the past, mostly on the Greek version, so I took the liberty or reviving the draft English version for Strawberry, There is still some work to fix errors and things before we submit it for review to be generally published. I would appreciate anyone pointing any errors or maybe new things to include. You can find the article Here. Of course anyone can contribute directly if you wish.

Since I'm the author/maintainer of the software I shouldn't edit directly, but I see the following:
- "MacOS" should be "macOS"
- "fork of the Clementine program in its version 1.3.1". This isn't actually correct, Strawberry wasn't actually forked from a specific release version of clementine, but various git revisions.
- "Qt toolkit" should probably be "Qt framework", that's what it's officially called from the Qt Company and on Wikipedia.
Under differences:
"compatible with Qt 5 and Qt 6"
Qt 5 is no longer supported, only Qt 6.
Under References:
- Points to the source code for about.cpp, an older version from 2016 for Clementine, this is probably not relevant, the authors/contributors are listed in the same file in Strawberry.
4-5. lists the same URL. - Contains a broken URL to "differences from Clementine", this URL hasn't worked for many years, the correct URL is https://wiki.strawberrymusicplayer.org/wiki/Differences_from_Clementine
- Links to the Privacy Policy on the Clementine website, this isn't relevant for Strawberry as far as I can see.
- Links to a Clementine issue where some users claim it collects data, even though this is a connection, and no data is leaked/collected. In any case it isn't relevant for Strawberry since it does not use the songkick service at all.

@jonas
Thanks for the pointers. I believe I have made all the changes. The article is now published (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawberry_(Software). Please take a look.
