[hide]How to get a wiki account
(Self-account-creation is turned off because of spam.)
If you're a member, you probably already have one; it should've been created during your onboarding. Check the user list, and note that usernames are case-sensitive. (Sorting by date and looking around the time you joined may be helpful.)
If you're not a member, we're happy to create an account for you! We just need a username and email for it. (If you're planning to become a member in the future, please think ahead to whatever email you'll use for your other i3 dealings, and use that here too -- it simplifies things down the line!) Get in touch with Nate B (or other wikicrats ) by email or Slack, and specify the username and email you'd like. Shortly the account will be created, and a random password will be emailed to you. Check your spam folder!
(If you don't get a response in a day or so, post to the members' group with the above info.)

Todo
Look for "Good first task →" if you want some simple ones
Newish Content
- Good first task → Take pictures
- Improve wording on Category:Landing Page is intended as pages for non-i3 people to show up at, we should put extra focus on putting good words there.
Missing Equipment- Make i3 page on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/i3Detroit
- Use In the Media for sources
- Started: wikipedia:User:Mtfurlan/sandbox/i3Detroit
- Please just edit this if you can improve it
- Update the links on https://www.i3detroit.org/wiki/Financial with the reports, found in each month's board meeting.
- Could this be automated by adding some kind of tag to uploaded financial documents?
- Yes, put the tag [[Caregory:Financial Reports]], in the page somewhere (preferably at the bottom) and it will show up on the category's page.
- Update https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/I3Detroit
- Combine HOWTO Bring A Proposal to the Board and HOWTO Propose rule/policy/procedure changes
Misc
- Add some "good first task" tasks to this list, for new editors to get their feet wet.
- Verify the Financial category has been created then go through all the Board Minutes and find the financial reports and make sure they all have the [[Category: Financial]] tag in the page (preferably at the bottom).
- What is Membership how does it overlap with Membership Committee and can they be combined?
- add Extension:UrlGetParameters so we can have a printEquipment?page=whatever that just has the label on it
- make wiki role for secretary that can edit bylaws and standing rules
- Template:MeetingActionProposalSummary doesn't work for action items with no PoC
- many ask queries want to ask for "this template" but ask for random property on it
- can we do named objects or something?
- example: Minutes:Meeting_Minutes_20241105#Sandblasters_without_a_zone
- Template:Equipment calendar has two fields, reservation adddress and calendar url, but calendar url is just a urlencoded address plus static link, try https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Urlencoding
Maintenance
- Good first task → Go through In_the_Media for broken links, find content on archive.org (or archive it if it's still up and not in archive.org) and link to the archive.org version instead
- Special:ProcessingErrorList
- Go through Category:Candidates for deletion
- Go through Category:Pages Needing Updates
- Go through Category:Pages with broken file links
- Go through Special:DoubleRedirects
- Both Category:Glass Zone and Category:Ceramics Zone need many help
- Good first task → Go through Category:Fundraising_Meeting_Minutes and remove all the ones that were never used
Minutes status stuff
If anything shows up here that isn't in the future or very recent, it's probably a mistake in the Template:MinutesHeader call, likely someone didn't change it from agenda to complete
- If it's a board meeting, check that it was approved at a future board meeting and if it wasn't bring it up with the board
- If it's a member meeting and it looks good, just mark it complete if it looks like a good summary

Reorganizing
- Go through all the ToDo pages, and move any todos that should be on equipment instead of the general zone to that equipment
- Go through all the ToDo pages, and standardize the todo format on equipment pages
- Go through all the Category:HOWTO pages and move tool howto content onto the tool pages themselves; those are not todos
- Deal with events/classes HowTo pages, maybe coalesce
- Fix Category:Proposals
- Add tagged proposals to the category?
- Hunt down old proposals and properly tag them
- Give anyone who appears in a magic table an infobox
- Merge Wood_CNC into CNC Router, or delete outright?
- Delete Template:MinutesNotice, after editing all of the minutes that use it to use Template:MinutesHeader instead: Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:MinutesNotice
Semantifying
- EAP: Reformat all dates to be yyyy-mm-dd
- EAP: sorttable/sorting order on transcluded queries - probably the user table generation
- EAP: make user tables and trainer tables have prettylinks
- EAP: add comment on authorized users table that ZCs should email wiki@ if they can't edit
- Alternatively, make it unrestricted until someone goes dumb and tries to add themselves without actually getting authorized first
- EAP: Figure out how to add second trainer to lasers
- Tried to make the trainer field parallel to the owners field, but it isn't working. It could be because the trainers field is in a multiple-instance field. Also, when formatting for display, the owners field uses an arraymap, but since the trainers property is a subobject, everything is weird. I don't remember how to call an arraymap within a subobject declaration, or even if it can be done. Everything is confusing and future jamie should take pity on this jamie and not be mad at her :-(
- Meeting minutes: Use template subclusion to auto-populate with old business, previous action items, current space projects, even zones and sigs maybe
- See if wikibot can help with this
- Make ToDos editable with forms
- Learn cargo and see if it's worth rewriting all the SMW stuff in a more database-like format
- Talk pages would be more useful if they indicated LOUDLY that they exist, or that they have new content on them, cuz on our wiki they're so rare most of us forget to look for 'em
Fixing broken things
- make SMW error icon mouse over-able like it's supposed to
- Jamie has advice from the SMW mailing list somewhere in her inbox.
- Fix advocate name query on HOWTO Be Member Advocate
- Should users be allowed to delete pages? They aren't right now
- Historical pages shouldn't add Photograph Needed pages
serverside stuff
- commit config
- fix plugins git stuff
