HRWiki:Projects

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Revision as of 18:46, 8 February 2005

Looking for something to do? You're in luck. Below is a list of projects the wiki community is currently engaged in. You should be able to find something in here to keep you busy.

Standardizing Pages

Though most of the pages from the old wiki have been moved here, many of them haven't been brought up to our new level of standardization, which can be found on the HRWiki:Standards page. Below are standardization projects that are still in need of special attention.

Filmography Categories

All of the main characters now have a Filmography Category. To add a toon to a character's filmography, you put a category link at the bottom of the toon's page, e.g. if Strong Bad is in Toon X, then on the Toon X page you put this at the bottom: [[Category:Strong Bad Filmography]]. That will make Toon X appear on the Strong Bad Filmography category page. The "Project" here is that many of the Toons currently don't have complete filmography links.

Cast (in order of appearance)

We'd like to standardize the way appearing characters are listed on toon pages. Many of them currently say "Featuring:" followed by a list of characters that appear in that toon. Instead, this should say something like this:

Cast (in order of appearance): Strong Bad, The Cheat

Notice that only the left part (up to and including the colon) is bold and the character names are not. And, of course, the characters should be in the order in which they appear in the toon. This is a project that may be most convenient if done in concert with the Filmography Categories project.

All the Strong Bad Emails are done, along with Toons from Full-length to Holidays. Not sure about the rest.

Thumbnails

When we first installed MediaWiki we did not have the ability to create thumbnails. Thumbnails are now enabled, and we need to comb the entire wiki changing full-sized images to thumbnails. Note: external images can't be thumbnailed, so links to external images should be removed and a interwiki image used in its place.

Most pages now have on-site thumbnails. Flag any pages that still need an image.

Wiki Cleanup

Ongoing cleanup tasks can be found at HRWiki:Cleanup

Links to be fixed

• Any Homestar Runner link that in context discusses the flash cartoon as a whole and not the actual character Homestar can be changed to Homestar Runner (flash cartoon)

Kobe Problem

Figure out a way to fix the Kobe problem discussed here.

TBC G4techTV Interview - 01 Aug 2003

Due to the succes of pages like TMBG Concert - 25 Sep 2004 and TBC G4techTV Interview - 24 Jan 2005, we bring you TBC G4techTV Interview - 01 Aug 2003, a new page for the "Pulse" video interview available for download on the Links page.
