My Tasks

  1. Finish incomplete TRVA pages


Shared Tasks

Articles

Quick Tasks

  1. Sandbox -- proposed Collaboration Categories update; see PMs
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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
  5. Move MOSWIN RIDs from county-pages to separate pages and assign the "...RID/UIDs" categories.
  6. For Category:New York and similar categories, rename "City of..." and "Town of..." pages so that they start follow "(county) (NY) (city/town)" convention.
  7. 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.
  8. 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

  1. List conventions and standards for consideration by admins as possibly part of Wiki help articles.
    • Standardize article names accordingly
  2. Confirm correct categories on all articles
    1. Remove parent-category from articles when child-category has been assigned.
      • Example: Remove "Business Frequencies" when "Communications Providers Frequencies" is applied
      • Example: Remove "Utilities Frequencies" when "Common Carriers Frequencies" is applied
  3. 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
  4. Add "Return to" links as appropriate (to avoid dead-end pages)
  5. 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. -- done
    • Consider 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

Categories

  1. Do Documentation
  2. Confirm correct categories on all articles
    1. Create new categories as appropriate, using appropriate templates.
  3. Make sure that each TRS is linked-to by the related county/city pages; not just by that states' TRS(ST) page.
  4. Continue adding "|Country=United States " to the Special-topics templates.
  5. "Events", "Military Events", etc.
  6. Clean-up Category:US and Canadian Common Frequencies
    1. Some of its articles belong only to one country but not both
    2. Consider theme-based subcategories
  7. Consider template-categories for templates
  8. Based on various threads in forums, and if there are enough articles to need detailed subcategories, then ...
    • consider Business sub-categories:
      1. Stores
      2. Restaurants (consider using Category:Fast Food instead of a new Category:Restaurants)
      3. Offices
      4. Malls
      5. Manufacturing
    • consider Ground-Transportation sub-categories:
      1. Taxis (also might be under Businesses because Taxis are private, at least in US)
      2. Buses (cannot be under Businesses because some are operated by govt entities)

Templates

  1. On long-table templates, like "Template:Table Trbosys", create sequential-nested "Hide##" parameters to hide unused table-rows.
    • Hide## hides all following rows, so that (##-1) is the last visible row.
    • Hide## hides all following rows, so that only one Hide statement is needed to hide end of table.
    • Template:Table_Trboconventional and Template:Table_Trbosys -- done.
  2. Add parameter "TitleSuffix" to Template:Text CatStateOtherFreq, Template:Text CatStateOther, Template:Text CatStateOtherNonRRDB, at end of both the title and the sample category-statement.
    1. Make HideOtherInTitle also hide "OtherIsNotFreq" etc.
    2. Verify reason for this parameter; possibly for " Repeaters", etc.
  3. Do Documentation
    1. Update Template:Text_CatStateOtherFreq/doc and other "/docs" with USDefFreqInState info.
    2. Finish other "/doc" pages
  4. Ensure that all articles use related templates
    1. Use compass at bottom of pages as appropriate
    2. Create additional templates as appropriate
  5. Update Infobox(es)
    1. Move FCC link up to the FCC line
    2. In lower section put Site Map links
    3. In lower section put new DBReport... links
    4. Adjust certain templates to make boilerplate text optional, or create second wrapper-template containing boilerplate text that wraps the template which does the work
  6. Add unused valid templates to User:QDP2012/30/1/1 to avoid the Unused Templates list
  7. Consider template-categories for templates
  8. Consider creating another template (aimilar to FCC License {{{1}}}) that queries FCC by callsign, as opposed to license-number

Database

  1. Check "Wiki" buttons
    1. Make sure that each button-link still matches existing Wiki pages' names
      1. If not, then correct Wiki page name as appropriate
    2. Make sure airport "Wiki" buttons' links match standardized Wiki Airport page names
    3. Make sure DB System names do not include ampersand (&) or pound (#) symbols because they are disallowed in the Wiki page name.
      1. When submitting change-requests, reference existing forum-thread regarding first such change.
  2. Verify Deprecated DB systems are also deprecated in Wiki
