This is the Wiki TODO List:

It is advised to insert {{Expandarticle}} at the bottom of the page immediately after creating it. Doing so automagically includes the article in Category:Expansion Needed. You don't need to write any content.

Updating the Wiki

Our current priority (IMHO) should be updating the wiki's various out-of-date articles. I have thus created a template and category recognizing up-to-date pages. The plan is to have all articles lit up with that nauseatingly bright green banner by the time the mission starts, or someone other than the wiki team bothers to use the wiki. Whichever comes first.

I decided that this was not working and have therefore deleted the template. It was a good idea, but the template got applied to articles that didn't deserve it, and the project was too large to be feasible. Also, it was a bit ugly and blunt.---Benzyne^{Talk Page} 13:29, 14 January 2010 (EST)

Perhaps rather than templating the ones that we have edited we should template the ones that we have not. That way we are working towards firstly defining what needs editing and secondly getting rid of the banner, rather than cluttering up every article of the wiki permanently. - Darth Wombat 18:06, 30 January 2010 (EST)

Wiki Components

We need templates for:

We need Categories for:

• A category system at all! Category Standards need to be developed
• Habitat-Related
• Various lists of people who held a certain rank: example - Category:Teachers. Use {{main|main article}} as the category article, for example, Category:Teachers has {{main|Admiral}}

Planets Project

Create an article for each destination that we've visited that contains basic information about that planet and when we visited it.

Procedures Update

Now that the Mission is fresh in our minds, this is the perfect time to update the Mission Procedures. Maclean already has a bulk of work done, which she should put up.
