This page lists where work is needed to be done on the wiki. If you would like to help, we ask that you please make an account and help wherever you can.

If you need to contact an Administrator, please visit an admin's userpage, and leave a note on their talk page.

If you make a change here, please give us as much detail as you can, and sign the end of your change using four tildes, like so: ~~~~. This allows us to get back to you if we need more information.

Missing & NeedsWork Pages

• The Pages Needing Changes list shows all the pages that have been tagged with {{NeedsWork}} or {{Stub}}. These pages either need more information, to be tidied, re-worded or adjusted, or just needs tome TLC.
• The Wanted Pages list shows all the pages that are missing (have been linked to, but aren't there). You should first check that the page being requested doesn't already exist (in case the person misspelled the page) and then, if you're feeling adventurous, put together a page. You can always come back, or tag the page with a {{NeedsWork}} or a {{Stub}} tag. If you need help, ask us! We don't bite.

Additional Tasks

• Advanced Monitor - Needs More Information.
  • Information was merged with the Term_(API) docs (bear in mind, Term_(API) is what the monitor is). AfterLifeLochie 02:14, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
• Textutils (Needs 5 3 function pages, 2 1 function description)
• Vector (Needs link to page explaining or description explaining what a vector is and function pages)
  • It now has a link to Wikipedia, but it doesn't use any of the method or example templates. Can we get this rectified? AfterLifeLochie 02:14, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
• Paintutils (Needs 3 function pages)
  • It also doesn't use any of the method or example templates. Can we get this rectified? AfterLifeLochie 02:14, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
• Some links don't link to their correct pages, resulting in page duplication and wasting time deleting pages. Can sometimes be found in the Wanted Pages.
• Sandbox / Testing page needs to be setup.
  • I created a page, however, a global page is not set up. User:Jonjon1234/Sandbox Jonjon1234 15:26, 20 December 2012 (MSK)
    • Yup, checked with Lochie, no global sandbox. Make it yourself :( Jonjon1234 16:53, 29 December 2012 (MSK)

Wiki Admin Things

SEO

• MediaWiki:mainpage needs to be set
  • Uhm, wha? I need to work out how MediaWiki was installed at some point. AfterLifeLochie 02:40, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
    • Done. AfterLifeLochie 17:04, 9 December 2012 (MSK)
• Friendly URLs need to be implemented (http://computercraft.info/wiki/Page_Name) - Requires FTP access to wiki, for editing of LocalSettings.php and .htaccess.
  • Noted; I'll query the almighty Dan about this when I see him in IRC next. AfterLifeLochie 02:14, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
    • Cloudy has been notified of this. Now awaiting his action. AfterLifeLochie 03:36, 2 December 2012 (MSK)
    • Done. AfterLifeLochie 17:04, 9 December 2012 (MSK)

General Wiki Stuff

• Pages all need to be categorized
  • I'm forseeing a few days of "categorization" in the future. I can do this, but help would be appreciated. AfterLifeLochie 14:04, 28 November 2012 (MSK)
    • Pages are now pretty roughly categorized. AfterLifeLochie 02:14, 29 November 2012 (MSK)
• Sidebar needs to be fixed up
  • What needs to be changed/fixed in the sidebar? "needs to be fixed up" is pretty abstract. :P AfterLifeLochie 14:04, 28 November 2012 (MSK)
• More anti-spam?
  • Spam isn't such of an issue now, as we monitor changes from #computercraft (or, at least, I do). AfterLifeLochie 14:04, 28 November 2012 (MSK)
• There are loads and loads of redirects, everywhere.
  • I've cut more than 50 of them out, but the rest have a lot of references. AfterLifeLochie 18:22, 30 November 2012 (MSK)
    • Redirects are gone. AfterLifeLochie 03:36, 2 December 2012 (MSK)
• Random Links, such as mining_turtle via image links, any chance of removing them?
  • Uh, no. They're generated through templates doing weird things, and fixing them is a real pain (template re factorization, renaming files, etc). I have fixed some but not all. AfterLifeLochie 16:46, 29 December 2012 (MSK)
