Help text for foundation Meeting model fields

[thibaudcolas]

Since I only use the Meeting model’s form once a month, it’d really help to have instructions explaining how to use the different fields directly on the form, rather than having to document this separately.

Here’s the help text I’m currently thinking of:

• TItle & slug: "Keep the default as-is"
• Board attendees: "Make sure to choose the correct year"
• Business Body: "Supports reStructuredText. See supported formatting"
• Action items: help content for whole section – "aka todos. Combine the last meeting’s remaining action items, and add any new ones"

And a prominent note somewhere towards the top of the form:

Note

Meeting notes go live and on RSS on Save, make sure to complete all relevant fields.

I totally agree with this, instructions should be away from the form.
