-We need to mass edit and add missing [[template:VideoGallery]] to the game pages that need it ASAP please, this list is getting nuisance for this to-do page. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 01:54, 21 August 2017 (CEST)
 == Pending ==
-=== Game Page Status Template ===
+=== Give this a nice update ===
-We should probably generate a template to track "completion" and frequency of different tasks for game pages, it could exist on each page's talk page and assist with maintenance. I'd like some help to scope such out here.
+[[Project:Wiki Conventions]] Full of outdated information and typos, Simple-player... haha! [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 23:52, 17 January 2018 (CET)
+:It'd be cool if the protected status was revoked. As things are now, the only people that protected status is blocking are the two of us. And it always seemed a little standoff-ish to have the page for the community's ideas of what the wiki's rules are be edit protected from having the community contribute to it. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 00:36, 18 January 2018 (CET)
+:: I've rolled back the protection. Though we'll likely want to restore it post clean-up. Tread lightly.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 00:41, 18 January 2018 (CET)
+:::[[User:Lucario]] should edit it first since he asked for it. I'll wait patiently and look at it tomorrow, so we don't clobber each other's edits. (Thanks for trusting us.) - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 01:00, 18 January 2018 (CET)
-:How are we supposed to do this exactly? I don't understand the mechanics of what you are trying to accomplish. What level of automation would be involved, and how much work does it take of an editor to fulfill everything? - [[User:MayImilae|MayImilae]] ([[User talk:MayImilae|talk]]) 00:26, 1 February 2013 (CET)
+::::Oh, maybe. Kolano scared me off like that. Now I've felt reluctant doing anything there. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 01:47, 18 January 2018 (CET)
-::This has been started at [[Template:Page Status]]. It's nowhere near complete though, it just shows that it's possible. It's actually fairly easy to automate finding missing sections, though the regex can behave kind of weird (pulling in garbage sometimes, transclusion errors?). Since the actual output isn't required, just existence or nonexistence, it still works ok. When I made it I didn't realize that this was on Project:To Do, so I didn't see the following section of suggestions, or the previous DPLs that accomplish a lot of the same things. I still don't really understand how some of these are supposed to be handled. The infobox information has to be confirmed by hand, and Kolano and I were the only people who ever did it, so that seems pretty pointless for the template. There's other things where it's like, if someone's going to report about it, they could instead just fix it themselves rather quickly, like the title's description can easily be copy/pasted from GameFAQs by anyone. Anything else I thought was questionable or I would like expansion on, I marked with a (?) in the list below. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 02:31, 21 August 2017 (CEST)
+:::::Psychology is weird. Maybe someone should write a paper about this. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 01:56, 18 January 2018 (CET)
-My intention was really for some sort of manual review to be established, beyond just establishing that a few fields were present. I'm not clear the current template accomplishes much that couldn't be handled via some additions to output similar categories in the infobox template (oe as already seen here). I'm guessing it's a heavier query, so perhaps it is better to restrict it to talk pages. Though I'd guess pre-generation/caching would mean there's little real difference. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 05:11, 21 August 2017 (CEST)
+::::::Heh... anyway, I have some changes I'd like submit to there. It's mostly about removing template how-to information outside of that page to their template docs, hopefully they don't mind. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 03:08, 18 January 2018 (CET)
-====Proposed "Game Page Status" Template Fields ====
+=== Game Page Status Template ===
-*Navigation template is in place if appropriate (default to NA)
+:<i>This conversation has been moved to [[Template talk:Page Status]].</i> - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 20:20, 22 August 2017 (CEST)
-*Page includes a full set of sections
-*Title applied if page title post-fixed (i.e. GC/Wii indicators)(default to NA)
-*Forumlink is in place
-*Wikipedia link is functional/accurate: Date of last review
-*Date of last forum page review
-*Date of last issue tracker scan (unclear this shouldn't just be handled with more regular review of the issues list, see section below)
-*Display and track unconfirmed [[GameIDs]]
-*Linkages to patches, texture packs, etc are in place and still valid
-:: The "Patches" section in [[Xenoblade Chronicles]] is something like this. We could adopt this as template (and then add this in [[Project:Wiki Conventions]]) [[User:mbc07|mbc07]] ([[User talk:mbc07|talk]])
-*(?)Infobox contains accurate information regarding the game (zero way to automate, unless we started doing cross site stuff with databases)
-*(?)Description is: accurate, brief, provides info beyond what's found in the infobox (if you notice it's bad, just copy paste from gamefaqs? this seems really slow and pointless)
-*(?)Time since last compatibility check (there is currently an implementation of this in the testing template)
-*(?)Rating is accurate for revision XXX (how? just look for the words "playable"/"perfect"/"ingame" in test entries or something? what's the purpose of that?)
