From PlaneSpottingWorld, for aviation fans everywhere

This page is a ToDo List for the whole of Plane Spotting World. It is intended to be used for tasks related to the maintenance, administration and development of the Wiki as a whole.

This ToDo list is NOT intended for listing changes needed to specific article pages, user pages or Workforce pages (etc). For these, either enter a suitable comment on the related Talk Page, or apply one of the Category:Attention needed templates templates to highlight the problem.

• Enter new tasks in the appropriate subsection, or create new subsections as appropriate
• Some of the tasks will require sysop priveliges to complete, these should be marked [ADMIN].
• Completed tasks should be moved to the 'Completed Tasks' section at the end, and dated. (At some stage in the future, we'll have to work out an archiving/clean-up procedure!)
• Admins are requested to add this page to their watchlist, to be able to take action as necessary.
• Large/complex tasks should be identified in the 'Active Tasks' section while being worked on; smaller tasks may be moved directly from 'Required' to 'Completed', if there is no liklihood of conflicts.

[edit] Required Tasks

Tasks that have been identified, but not yet started.

[edit] ToDo list

• Identify current tasks/activity in list
• Add relevant Special Pages

[edit] Ongoing Tasks

• Check Planes:Bugs and problems to see if there's something you can help with.

Click on a category to see a range of different things you can do to help:

• Category:Pages requiring actions
• Category:PlanespottingWorld maintenance

Continue the re-organisation and correct categorisation of events, using the correct template if required.

This section should be expanded in due course.

[edit] Administration

• Page protection [ADMIN]
  • Rationalise the protection templates, and ensure all pages use the correct templates
    (see {{sprotected2}}, {{protected template}}, {{pp-template}} etc)
  • Check that all templates calling protection templates are actually protected!
  • Check that all protected/semi-protected pages have a suitable template!

[edit] Categories

• Create missing categories (see Special:Wantedcategories) and link into the category tree, or, edit each article linking to an "out of scope" category and delete the category from the article.
• Category tree required for:

  Following added as preparation for a general 'under construction' template

  Also see WP cat: Under-construction templates and roadworks sign

  • Template:LGPL (which uses {{GNU-Layout}} (which is uncatted, along with {{PD-Layout}} + {{CC-Layout}})) Also make consistent with {{GFDL}} (and related) which is catted but does NOT use {{GNU-Layout}}.
  • Image:Crystal package settings.png

[edit] Category required

• All the Main Page stuff to Template:Cat

[edit] Templates

• Check all pages calling {{/doc}}:
  1. Convert to {{template doc}} or {{documentation, template}} (new WP move...)
  2. Fetch doc page from WP
• Check for templates using {{template doc page transcluded}} and {{template doc page viewed directly}} -- should be able to replace with {{template doc page}} (but try it first!)
