This is the Wiki TODO List:

{{sim}}
  
It is advised to insert <nowiki>{{Expandarticle}}</nowiki> 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.

'''This is the Wiki TODO List'''
  
==Updating the Wiki==
+
When you create a page, append <nowiki>{{Stub}}</nowiki> at the end of the article below any category markers. This will automatically include it in [[:Category:Stubs|the list of articles needing more work]].
Our current priority (IMHO) should be updating the wiki's various out-of-date articles. I have thus created a [[Template:0910|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.---[[user:rubberchickenben|<font color="green">Benzyne]][[User_talk:Rubberchickenben|<sup>Talk Page</sup></font>]] 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. - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 18:06, 30 January 2010 (EST)

''Please work on these articles preferentially. Our future members, the [[Wiki Task Force]], and anyone who wants to learn about Spacesim certainly appreciate any editing you do; our Lore is the well-loved product of smart people selected by common interest. But the most important facts about Spacesim, about previous missions and years, about how we learn and teach about space, can all be found on the pages for years, for procedures and for various rooms within the [[Hawking III]], our [[habitat]]. This wiki is for public outreach and for preserving the most important parts of [[Sim Culture]], so let's make it as complete and as rife with facts as we can.''

==Projects==
 +
===Habitat Systems Project===
 +
Create Pseudoscience that describes how the world works in the [[Beta]] Reality, including all Habitat Systems.
 +
 
 +
The project is being run from its [[:Category:Habitat Systems|Category Page]].
 +
 
 +
Please discuss this project on its [[Category_talk:Habitat Systems|Talk page]] rather than on the Community Portal.
 +
 
 +
===Planets Project===
 +
Create an article for each destination that we've visited that contains basic information about that planet, when we visited it, and what we learned there. If possible, [[EEP]]s information should be tied in as well.
 +
 
 +
The project is being run from its [[:Category:Extraterrestrial|Category Page]], and more details are to be found there.
 +
 
 +
Please discuss this project on its [[Category_talk:Extraterrestrial|Talk page]] rather than on the Community Portal.
 +
 
 +
===Procedures Update Project===
 +
Recently, procedures have started to stray from the typical format, so a small project has been launched to fix them.
 +
 
 +
This Project is being run from the [[Procedures Table of Contents]].
 +
 
 +
Please discuss this project on its [[Talk:Procedures Table of Contents|Talk page]] rather than on the Community Portal.
 +
 
 +
===Archives Project===
 +
We have massive quantities of paper records, both in the [[Office|Spacesim office]] and at [[Ottawa Tech]], which will likely be lost in the coming years if they are not properly archived. I suggest that we:
 +
*Read through (or at least skim) our paper records, and use these to expand our coverage of Spacesim's earlier history
 +
*Scan the records in their entirety and upload them as PDF files for viewing.
 +
 
 +
I'm willing to help with the first part, and the second if we can find someone with a scanner that exports PDFs. [[User:Max.Jeffcott|Max.Jeffcott]] 22:48, 10 March 2010 (EST)
 +

:Alright, looks like the project is beginning. I currently have position of the "Mission '91/Mission '92" binder, and I'll begin scanning it soon. I'm also using it to make significant changes to articles concerning those years, since it turns out the ISSS was significantly more expansive than we've been letting on. Wish me luck.

===Photo Project===
 +
Okay, in my four years of wikediting, I have managed to upload many hundreds of images to the wiki. Unfortunately, many of them are duplicates. Two people, or one person on two occasions, sometimes upload the same image. This can all be changed with some careful organization. I propose that all the images on the wiki be divided into categories. This is a momentous task, and people will likely still be working on this come September. I'll post more details later. If you want to help, start with the [[Special:Imagelist |file list]] >>>[[user:Q-Cumber|<font color="green">Q-Cumber</font>]] 18:28, 9 June 2010 (EDT)
 +
 
 +
===Project Alumnus Information===
 +
For the first time in recorded history, Spacesim is using the incredible networking properties of the internet to get in touch with massive quantities of alumni. The [[List of Members]] is exploding, Oce Spacesim on Facebook is getting pretty popular, and we need to make the best of it. This task force will go through yearbooks for information about the club, add any alumni they can, find graduating years and information about administration hierarchy, and create pages for the information that they find.
 +
 
 +
==Wanted Wiki==
 +
 
 +
===Templates===
 +
*Template for including multiple templates at the top of the page (for example: List, Lore, and Wikimaster Displeasure at the same time).
 +
*Template that has an editable list, different for every template. Perhaps this is not a Template in WikiCode and merely a colored text box, but it would be handy.
 +
*Template for Countries. There's quite a large heap of dead links for countries.

*Category Standards
 
*Habitat-Related
 
*Habitat-Related
*Various lists of people who held a certain rank: example - [[:Category:Teachers]]. Use <nowiki>{{main|main article}}</nowiki> as the category article, for example, [[:Category:Teachers]] has <nowiki>{{main|Admiral}}</nowiki>

WTF FTW FTW!

This is an OCESS Wiki organizational article.

Do not edit unless you are a wikimaster or alumnus.


This is the Wiki TODO List

When you create a page, append {{Stub}} at the end of the article below any category markers. This will automatically include it in the list of articles needing more work.

Always be sure to follow the edicts of the Style Guide when working on the Wiki.


Please work on these articles preferentially. Our future members, the Wiki Task Force, and anyone who wants to learn about Spacesim certainly appreciate any editing you do; our Lore is the well-loved product of smart people selected by common interest. But the most important facts about Spacesim, about previous missions and years, about how we learn and teach about space, can all be found on the pages for years, for procedures and for various rooms within the Hawking III, our habitat. This wiki is for public outreach and for preserving the most important parts of Sim Culture, so let's make it as complete and as rife with facts as we can.

Recently, procedures have started to stray from the typical format, so a small project has been launched to fix them.

This Project is being run from the Procedures Table of Contents.

Project Alumnus Information

For the first time in recorded history, Spacesim is using the incredible networking properties of the internet to get in touch with massive quantities of alumni. The List of Members is exploding, Oce Spacesim on Facebook is getting pretty popular, and we need to make the best of it. This task force will go through yearbooks for information about the club, add any alumni they can, find graduating years and information about administration hierarchy, and create pages for the information that they find.

Wanted Wiki

Templates

  • Template for including multiple templates at the top of the page (for example: List, Lore, and Wikimaster Displeasure at the same time).

  • Template for Countries. There's quite a large heap of dead links for countries.

Categories

  • Category Standards
  • Habitat-Related

Pictures

Articles that need pictures should have the {{pic}} template appended to them at the top.

Articles that contain the {{pic}} template are listed at the needed pictures' category.

To view which pictures have already been uploaded to the wiki, see the Gallery of New Files.
