This is a temporary and highly attention attracting sidebar topic, intended for people to '''write down the must have essentials of the wiki that we need to complete''', before we go ahead and let more of the general public see the wiki.
{{gif fixer|[[File:Adorable_cute_kitten_tapping_on_Macbook.gif|350px]]|right}}
This is a list for the 'must have essentials' of the wiki before it's released to the general public. These articles don't have to be flawless, just helpful enough.


Wiki will be prominent on the front of the website, maybe a mass email sent out, pinned in the FB group, maybe youtube video promoting it, '''who knows'''. How can the Wiki be expected to be promoted if it has '''no content'''? xP
If something isn't crucial to get to an acceptable standard before publishing the wiki, don't put it on the list. The list is just for the most important things to get right {{awesome}}
==Content==


We're crowdsourcing what we believe to be the essential articles and things that should be completed to an acceptable standard before going ahead and promoting the wiki down below. '''Please contribute to the ToDo list'''. Follow the syntax that already exists down below to add to the ToDo list, and be sure to sign off on your contributions with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. This will leave your '''wiki username signature''', so people know who put what task where.
Here's a list of pages that need development:
<categorytree mode="pages" hideroot="on">Pages that need development</categorytree>


If something isn't crucial to get to an acceptable standard before publishing the wiki, don't put it on the list. The list is just for the most important things to get right :)
These are basically all of the main articles on the front page. Gotta get these bad boys shipshape.
<!--


Please write other articles that are felt necessary. Tag these articles with <nowiki></nowiki> for now.


==Remember these==
# [[Special:LonelyPages]] ideally would be empty.
# [[Special:WantedPages]] should be minimized.  This page will naturally grow as we add content, and is ripe grounds for contributors to pick something that needs researching or cross-linking.
#We need LOADS of redirects. Redirects redirect one term (e.g. 'Bates method') to another ('Bates '''M'''ethod'). To make a redirect, type <code>#REDIRECT <nowiki>[[ArticleName]]</nowiki></code> as the ENTIRE article, or use the 'create redirect' tool (last in the tools section in the left panel, at time of writing).
#*I think it's probably better to add a new redirect link for a term, rather than use the <nowiki>[[wikiword|description]]</nowiki> syntax to have ''description'' link to ''wikiword'' on the fly. That way, if a page for ''description'' does get created later, we don't have to go back to find places where that same phrase was sent to a different page (which would be confusing). Though it wouldn't matter for the case above where they differ only in case. [[User:Divenal|Divenal]] ([[User talk:Divenal|talk]]) 09:24, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Adorable cute kitten tapping on Macbook.gif

This is a list for the 'must have essentials' of the wiki before it's released to the general public. These articles don't have to be flawless, just helpful enough.

If something isn't crucial to get to an acceptable standard before publishing the wiki, don't put it on the list. The list is just for the most important things to get right 718smiley.svg

Content

Here's a list of pages that need development:

These are basically all of the main articles on the front page. Gotta get these bad boys shipshape.

Please write other articles that are felt necessary. Tag these articles with for now.

Remember these

  1. Special:LonelyPages ideally would be empty.
  2. Special:WantedPages should be minimized. This page will naturally grow as we add content, and is ripe grounds for contributors to pick something that needs researching or cross-linking.
  3. We need LOADS of redirects. Redirects redirect one term (e.g. 'Bates method') to another ('Bates Method'). To make a redirect, type #REDIRECT [[ArticleName]] as the ENTIRE article, or use the 'create redirect' tool (last in the tools section in the left panel, at time of writing).
    • I think it's probably better to add a new redirect link for a term, rather than use the [[wikiword|description]] syntax to have description link to wikiword on the fly. That way, if a page for description does get created later, we don't have to go back to find places where that same phrase was sent to a different page (which would be confusing). Though it wouldn't matter for the case above where they differ only in case. Divenal (talk) 09:24, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Things we shouldn't do but I want to do

  1. Joke: namespace
  2. Humour articles, like 'how much do you get paid to edit the wiki?'. We'll have a fake table with all of the rates for how much each edit costs and everything. Appropriately marked with a 'humour' notice at the top of the article that nobody can miss.
    1. Like just a bunch of satire articles roasting how people think this is all fake in general. This lets everyone inside the Endmyopia echo chamber giggle to themselves. -NottNott (talk) 21:13, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
  3. Pictures of Jake Steiner wearing glasses. Super-duper daft article, maybe not a good idea. 'hurr durr, nobody's ever seen Jake in glasses' I am intelligent -NottNott (talk) 10:08, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
