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. | 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.

: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) | :How are we supposed to do this exactly?

::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) | |||

*(?)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?) | |||
