StarCraft Wiki:Things to do
From StarCraft Wiki
This is a list of projects which need to be done on Starcraft Wiki. If you see another project that needs doing, please add it to the list below. If you have accomplished a task, please remove it.
- Building articles need reworking in a similar style as the unit articles and infusion of images, possibly from Battle.net strategy pages.
- Many episode articles need to be written in past tense rather than present tense.
- Articles with content taken from Wikipedia may need to be written in a style fitting to the StarCraft wiki.
- Categorize all images currently uncategorized and those still in the old image tree. Mark duplicate images for deletion.
- Implement guideline Using names and nouns. Salient points to work on:
- Convert many instances of "Protoss", "Terran", and "Zerg" to "protoss", "terran" and "zerg".
- Rename ("move") articles. (eg. Siege Tank -> Siege tank.) A list of articles may be found here.
- Modify links to eliminate redirects to renamed articles.
- Replace the current "list" display style for unit and building abilities and upgrades with templates: Template:AbilityBox, Template:UpgradeBox
- Update the references in the above boxes (they don't get updated as often as unit pages).
- Split unit and possible building articles into lore and gameplay articles as set out by Writing unit lore articles and Writing unit gameplay articles. Related tasks include:
- Removing redirects with Template:Link. Check navigation box links.
- Ensuring lore articles retain lore images, while gameplay articles get the gameplay images. This is especially important for the unit information boxes.
- Create and fill lore navigation boxes:
- Ensure lore articles are categorized correctly.
- Move embedded videos using the YouTube extension to the "Video" namespace. Categorize videos into Category:Videos and Category:Images.
