Project:To Do

Here is a list of stuff that needs doing on the wiki.

Feel free to add anything you feel that needs to be done and remove items that have been completed.

Pending Cleanup

Misc

• Create page documenting the various current Wiki conventions (i.e. title naming, appropriate config entries, Version compatibility handling, rating templates use, revision template use, etc.). Expose the page in appropriate locations (main page, comment on list pages, etc).

List

• Clean up lists by adding missing information
• Add orphaned or games not in the lists into the list pages.
• Better system for managing the Gamecube games lists need to be done as finding games like Zelda could be under (The legend of / Legend of / Zelda)
  • I'm fairly sure existing naming conventions ensure this isn't the case, though we may need to do a better job of documenting them:Kolano 01:27, 2 April 2011 (CEST)
    • Page names should align with the localized English title or, when Japan-exclusive, their rōmaji transliterations
      • Unclear if there are any Euro exclusive titles that aren't accounted for by this, I seem to recall a French only game or two.
    • Page names should start with "The" if the title does
    • List entries should move "The" to the end of their title section (i.e. "The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker" becomes "Legend of Zelda, The: The Wind Waker")
• Consider purging "Tested on Revision" from list pages. Please provide feedback here.
  • I'm not clear the need to list this on the list pages. They are rarely maintained in alignment with the game page, and the compatibility ratings (which are already the root cause of needing to split up the list pages) serve the purpose of providing high level compatibility info. If one needs to know specific version details, the specific game pages seem more appropriate.Kolano 01:27, 2 April 2011 (CEST)

Config

• Clean up config entries post Config template revisions to include an up to date list of parameters. Recent Config template changed strings to be as is in current Dolphin revision:
  • |recompiler=JIT, JITiL or interpreter must be changed to the new |cpuengine=JIT, JITiL or interpreter. (relevant pages, currently 448)
  • |realxfb=on must be changed to the new |xfb=real (now both real and virtual XFB options are radio buttons on emulator). (relevant pages, currently 441)
• Improve config documentation on Template page and update config sections to only use filled parameters.

Infobox

• Clean up publisher/release date info to indicate differing region releases more appropriately (see Fragile Dreams : Farewell Ruins Of The Moon)
• Consider purging emulation irrelevant details:

Categories

• Add developer/publisher categories
• Add more complete set of genre categories
  • Replace genres with genre category links

To Do List

• List other needed to do
• Consider purging "Completed" section
  • Though I appreciate having the opportunity for folks to get credit for their cleanups, I think we probably need a strategy to eventually purge such content. For historical purposes details can be retrieved from the history. Please provide feedback so we can determine how to handle this.
    • I'd suggest updates completed more than a month ago get purged.Kolano 01:27, 2 April 2011 (CEST)

Completed Cleanup

Ratings

• The warning not to edit the ratings in the list needs to be copied from Wii to all other lists.
  • Have completed this does Wii Channels need a ratings page?
  • The warning not to edit the ratings in the list is now in all other lists. (a Wii Channels template was created too) Jhonn 16:41, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
• All lists and games need to be gone through to change the ratings to use the template system instead of inline.
  • Half of the the Gamecube lists are using inline ratings instead of there Ratings Template. 122.104.103.221 17:06, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
  • I think this is done now Foso 16:16, 13 February 2011 (CET)
