This is a massive list of things that need fixed to make the site fully functional.
Needs manual intervention
Things that will always need done:
- Category:Pages Needing Wicks
- Category:Works Needing Tropes
- List of Shows That Need Summary -- write a new page
- Stuff in Category:Stubs
Search and potentially restore:
- Forum:Lost (Censored?) Pages
- Permanent Red Link Club
- Restore censored content on TVT pruned and/or allow troping of pages not allowed to be edited where possible and prudent.
Other:
Setup YKTTW namespace- Other policies need revised fullwise
Things in Category:Checknamespace need to be returned their proper home, then detagged. PROTIP: Do "What Links Here".- Random throwaway references to TVT that can be turned into ATT.
Bogus templates which are actually mis- or un-parsed TVT links (see just about everything at the bottom end of Wanted Templates).- Continue identifying and renaming pages which should have punctuation in their names.
- Things in Special:WhatLinksHere/Home_Page (which includes a redirect from TV Tropes) need to be checked to see if they refer to TVT, and if so, fix that. Fixed links should point to TV Tropes or Main Page
- Evaluate Tutorial Draft and see if there's anything there that we can use.
- Move as many index pages to their Category equivalents and provide redirects on the main namespace pages. Largely a manual job, though some pages in indexes are untagged and will need bot intervention.
- The pages under the Names to Run Away From namespace need to be moved to Names to Run Away From Really Fast; that page needs to point to them.
Possible bot jobs, possible manual
Everything on Category:Oldtable needs updated to mediawiki tables, then detagged- Everything on Category:Pages with comment tags needs to have:
- TVT Control Freakery removed
Links fixed (an potentially made interwiki in the case of wikipedia), and lines reparsed.(there might be some out there still, but very few if any).About a dozen or two pages have YouTube or other links in comments, excised from the quote markup immediately before them. This was my solution to the template errors they caused, before learning the proper way to fix it. These need to be undone and properly corrected.
- Find and fix broken image/caption markups
- "right"->"frame" for images otherwise properly marked up
Merging images with captions caught in a "[[caption-width-right:" markupImages markups that have their final "]" on the line after everything else
Remaining hottip markups need to be located and changed to refs.Category:Hottip markup (decimated by bot to a final 49 pages, needs to be manually fixed from here on).
- Remove TVT forum links, et al
- Mis-converted spoiler markups in the form of "[[spoiler:"; they often (usually?) lack closing brackets.
- These are pretty much entirely on pages that had stray return characters -- i.e. stuff GethN7 had sent me (Vorticity) from the internet archive for being cut on TVT. If so, I might be able to assemble a list of these pages.
- Tilde-markup page links (for example, Don't Explain The Joke), left over from TVT's second try at punctuated titles.
- Redlinks which are caused by simple capitalization issues need to be found and corrected.
Definite bot jobs
Rename unambiguous (Mediatype) labels from work names.- Cleanup of some remaining category pages.
- Figure out why so many images are going unused on the wiki.
Software installs
We can has MultiBoilerplate installed in liek ever?- Some sort of web-based IRC client.
