Latest revision as of 14:16, 18 December 2024

Writing goals on this page can help other editors know what is planned.

Almost all edits to the wiki can be made without prior discussion or permission. This page should only be seen as a list of suggested work. Feel free to change the goals here yourself, or discuss them in the talk page.

Stubs

The article stubs need to be written to a basic level.

These bars show finished articles / total articles. The total number of articles is the number present in the wiki's category, including all subcategories.

Main page menu icons

All wikis have menu icons (sometimes called "buttons" or "banners") that make navigation easier for readers.

  • There are no templates for menu icons, such as a Main Page menu icon template.
  • There is no style guide for banners, though editors can naturally assume they should use the same resolution.
  • There is no standard for how menu icons should be named.
  • There is some variation in how they are styled (how the whole container div is styled, whether the icons themselves the MenuIcon class, etc.).
  • There is no easy way to download an isolated frame of any wiki's style
  • There is no information available on the font used by each wiki.

An effort should be made to facilitate:

  1. Making new menu icons for new wikis.
  2. Making new menu icons for existing wikis which have an existing style.
  3. Keeping a record of which menu icons have been made, and which could be added to existing wikis (in other words, which are missing from each wiki)

An archive of menu icon templates was made by User:NadaAfterwards and shared to the wiki discord: [1]. A table of current menu icons of each namespace was made by User:Uksi: [2]. The table is also available below for everyone to edit.

File categorization

All files should end up categorized under Category:Files. This includes categorizing unused files under Category:File maintenance using {{UnusedFile}}.

File categorization progress:

1123 / 34928 (3%)

Firstly, some preparation must be done:

  1. A proposition for which file categories to create and which files should be present in those categories must be written to keep a clear intention from the beginning.
    • E.g. should annotated maps be put in an "Annotated Maps" category, a normal "Maps" category, or both at the same time?
    • Categories have implications on the results of SMW and DPL.
  2. Removing files from categories left over from Fandom, such as Category:Maps and Category:Images. This frees up the categories for new usage in Yume Wiki, while making sure the files don't get counted as categorized when they haven't been reviewed and updated.
  3. New possible details for {{Infobox file}} should be designed as soon as possible (see below for some suggestions). Adding these later might require reviewing already categorized files, which is a lot of extra work!

Infobox file

List of current parameters:

  1. TBA

Possible additions:

  1. TBA

Notices

There may be a need for more notice templates.

There are some notices in YNFG Wiki that also need to be considered.

Hatnotes are not yet supported, which is potentially a limitation. Some pages link to main articles by making the header a link, which in other wikis is forbidden and requires the use of {{main}} instead. Existing hatnote templates (regardless of whether they actually function) are still in the notice templates category.

Usage of existing notices
{{Stub}} Short articles that need more content.
{{MissingInfo}} Articles generally missing some information. It is also being used for extreme cases like rewriting whole pages.
{{Delete}} Requesting a page to be deleted entirely from the wiki.
{{CategorySetting}} Used for templates that place a category, and places templates with the notice in Category:Category setting templates.
{{PropertySetting}} Used for templates that add SMW properties or subobjects, and places templates with the notice in Category:Property setting templates.
{{Claim}} Supposedly to mark pages as being edited to avoid edit conflicts. Never actually used by anyone and has an outdated structure.
Quarantined Fangame pages that have stricter rules on what to write about due to author request. Currently quarantined pages are locked to admins and are forbidden from having download links. Otherwise they are the same as other pages.
{{SpoilerWarning}} Used in spoiler-heavy pages such as about game endings, out of courtesy for the reader.
HorrorWarning Warns the reader of content that is more gore-y or horrific than usual.
NotReleased Fangames that are not yet released. Tells the reader not to expect much.
NotReleased2 Fangames abandoned before releasing. Tells the reader not to expect much... ever.
ExFangame Fangame pages that should not be updated further. Different from archival as editors are still encouraged to update the page's information and style — just not with information on the game's later versions, after it stopped being a YNFG.

Plans:

Italic titles

A discussion had the consensus among the 3 only participants be to always write title in italics.

This guideline needs to be added to the style guide.

In page text: There is no way to search specifically for un-italicised game titles in page text, although searching for all mentions of the game title and checking those could be done by someone with that kind of time (please write which game titles you've checked though!)

In page titles: Templates need to be created that make use of {{DISPLAYTITLE:}} to place page names in italics. It should omit text in parentheses. It also needs to be able to omit other words, such as in the case of content categories like Category:Yume Nikki Locations. There's a possibility of it forcing the namespace to always appear to readers, which is an implication that would need fixing (probably by asking an admin to set $wgRestrictDisplayTitle to false).

Possible exceptions:

  • The title could be left normal in the wiki's main page welcome banner.
  • Maintenance pages or categories do not especially need to have proper formatting, as they are supposed to be used by editors and not seen by readers.

(name)

(name) refers to the theories by Mt.kiki.

These theory pages hold sentimental value to some people, but rarely have understandable information.

To improve the Yume Nikki Wiki while preserving Mt.kiki's theories, the following procedure has been devised:

  1. Formatting: Fix the formatting of the (name) page.
  2. Rewrite: Strip the page down to the understandable content (most pages have massive copy-pastes from Wikipedia with no elaboration).
  3. Move: Copy whatever theories have merit into related articles (such as location pages or the main list of theories).
  4. Redirect: Replace the content of the (name) page with a redirect to a similar title.
