+title: TalkEd Wiki Submodule And User Docs Plan
+date: 2026-05-27
+status: active
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+Create a top-level git submodule named `wiki` that tracks the repository's own GitHub wiki repository, then populate the wiki with plain-language documentation for non-technical users.
+
+## Problem Frame
+
+The project now has repository-level guidance for contributors, but non-technical end users still lack an easy, central documentation surface that explains what TalkEd is, what it can and cannot do, and how to use it safely.
+
+## Scope Boundaries
+
+In scope:
+
+- Add a git submodule at `wiki/` pointing to `https://github.com/OpenKotOR/TalkEd.wiki.git`.
+- Add comprehensive wiki markdown pages focused on non-technical usage.
+- Cover app purpose, basic workflows, limitations/scope, common issues, and glossary content.
+
+Out of scope:
+
+- Changes to Delphi source or UI/resource files.
+- Native build system changes.
+- Workflow or governance refactors unrelated to wiki docs.
+
+## Key Decisions
+
+- Keep wiki docs plain-language first, with minimal jargon and explicit "what this means" phrasing.
+- Use page-level navigation from `Home.md` so users can browse by topic.
+- Keep scope and limitations highly visible to reduce expectation mismatch.
+- Only commit documentation files in the wiki repo and gitlink metadata in the main repo.
+
+## Implementation Units
+
+### U1: Branch and Submodule Setup
+
+Goal:
+
+- Create a dedicated feature branch from `main`.
+- Add `wiki/` submodule targeting the repository's wiki remote.
+
+Verification:
+
+- `.gitmodules` contains a `wiki` entry with the correct URL.
+- `git submodule status` shows a pinned commit for `wiki`.
+
+### U2: Create Non-Technical Wiki Structure
+
+Goal:
+
+- Build a discoverable set of wiki pages for end users.
+
+Planned pages:
+
+- `Home.md`
+- `What-TalkEd-Is.md`
+- `Getting-Started.md`
+- `Editing-Workflow.md`
+- `Import-Export-And-File-Safety.md`
+- `Limitations-And-Scope.md`
+- `Troubleshooting.md`
+- `FAQ.md`
+- `Glossary.md`
+
+Verification:
+
+- All pages exist in `wiki/` and are linked from `Home.md`.
+- Writing avoids deep technical assumptions.
+
+### U3: Validation and Publication
+
+Goal:
+
+- Validate docs quality and persist all required commits.
+
+Verification:
+
+- Main repo status clean after commit/push.
+- Wiki submodule commit pushed to wiki remote.
+- Main repo commit references updated submodule pointer and `.gitmodules`.
+
+## Risks
+
+- Submodule add can fail if authentication for wiki remote is not available.
+- Incomplete page linking can create dead-end navigation for non-technical users.
+- Ambiguous wording can overpromise unsupported app capabilities.
+
+## Deferred To Implementation
+
+- Exact sentence-level copy polish for each page.
+- Final ordering of top-level links on `Home.md` after drafting all pages.
