Quick Tasks
- Sandbox -- proposed Collaboration Categories update; see PMs
- Fix incorrect article-names
- Resolve confusing article-names
- Correct article-names that still have the old "no space before the ("
- Use redirect as needed until DB "Wiki" button links are also updated.
- Make sure all Trunked Radio System articles are linked from the appropriate county pages, not just the Trunked Radio System (ST) page; so that when deprecated, removing the link from the Trunked Radio Systems (ST) page does not orphan the deprecated page, since it is linked from the county page.
- This saves effort of moving deprecated links to a deprecated links article, which is/was the exact same list as is found on the equivalent Category:Deprecated Trunked Systems page.
- Consider parsing out the glossary-terms found in article Military Monitoring Glossary and make each a separate glossary article with appropriate glossary categories assigned.
- Benefit: Each term can then be linked-to by other articles.
- Benefit: Each term will be listed individually in the "...Glossary" categories and will save a navigation-step.
- Benefit: Terms can be in multiple "...Glossary" categories, like Military and Aviation
- See User:QDP2012/10
- Move MOSWIN RIDs from county-pages to separate pages and assign the "...RID/UIDs" categories.
- See User:QDP2012/27
- Change VIPER P25 Radio ID's layout to one sortable-table.
- For Category:New York and similar categories, rename "City of..." and "Town of..." pages so that they start follow "(county) (NY) (city/town)" convention.
- All pages starting with : "City Of...", "Town of", "Village of..."
- >>> Racine County (WI) and related pages
- Review and finish compiling User:QDP2012/6#Wiki_pages_deprecated_by_BCFY_pages. As appropriate recommend "redirects" or "notes" for the RR Wiki pages, that follow the existing example.
- Review the pages in Category:FreeSCAN, and consider renaming them so they all have the same capitalization "FreeSCAN"
or "FreeScan" or "Freescan"to match the software's official name-style. Then update the category name likewise.
Longer/Recurring Tasks

- Remove parent-category from articles when child-category has been assigned.
In articles with long lists (like Brevity Codes lists), use table-layout to put column(s) side-by-side so that page-length is decreased.-- do as needed, not systemically- Add "Return to" links as appropriate (to avoid dead-end pages)
- If an article's purpose is simply to list articles that are in a specific category, then replace the article with a link to the category.
See Brevity Codes article for example.-- doneConsider replacing the Deprecated... articles with links or redirects to the related category-- done.Consider Encrypted Agencies article and applying Category:Encryption by State; and possibly other sub-cat for encryption-related equipment.-- no
