To Do... list for PoliceWiki
Before public launch
sockii's tasks
- Build basic page templates
- Build announcement/tag templates to be used within articles
- Properly attribute/tag common images, make sure licensing/useage stuff makes sense
- Complete basic help and about pages
- Tackle PoliceWiki:General_disclaimer page
- Draft messageboard announcement for official launch, which can be reposted around at will
- Draft email to send to Police historians/collectors/website admins whose information and help would be appreciated, inviting them to participate
DM's tasks
[Since DM has scraps of notes all over her desk, she should maybe use this handy dandy little tool, too, eh?]
- Finalize the category structure. User:DM-Kellie is doing a fabulous job of this! [sockii said that last bit. I just like it.]
- Clean up/simplify smaller categories
- Proofread those Help and About pages once they're complete
- Double-check the templates one more time (including comments/instructions) to make sure we haven't changed anything
- Comb through the Disambig pages for consistency (cf. Shadows)
- Add Andy Tours
- Finish Performances/Gear/Bands sections
- Double-check categories in A/S/S to make sure no one is missing anything
- Delete leftover sample pages
- Email sockii with annoying questions
other thankless jobs...
...open to any early assistants who'd like to help out
- Continue adding stub pages for articles planned for the wiki, so as to troubleshoot and plan categorizing properly.
- Start uploading image files which will no doubt be included, with the appropriate information pages filled out. (Example: Image:Police-album-reggattadeblanc.jpg). Link them to appropriate stubs, even if templates will be added later. (User:Lkkinetic has been tackling this well for album covers.)
- Once templates are settled and checked out, begin adding at least the basic templates to "stubbed" pages--for instance, putting Template:Album in place on the album pages, with at least the title/band info filled out correctly along with a link to any already uploaded images and artwork. Also adding lyrics to song pages, etc. It is not necessary to have this all done before launch, but it would be helpful to have in place along with at least one well filled-out example of each basic article type, which can then be pointed to as examples.
- Standardize all song titles
After/around public launch
- Start taking volunteers for various articles
- Take volunteers for additional sys ops, as needed
- Contact folks who have other informational Police websites to solicit their help and participation with the wiki project
