'BOTS Cleanup List[edit]

  • Issue links
  • remove "none" noise in creator lists
  • property insertion text, once we establish and are using properties regularly

  • feature_templates - add more parameters for setting colors
  • more showcase templates for various themes and subjects
  • Rogues gallery template
  • equipment/powers template - review and upgrade
  • synopsis template

General Stuff[edit]

  • Until the AstroCity.us site is back with us, incorporate the Rocket Articles here? (Check with Kurt and JG first)

publication information - related data[edit]

Need to get the publication information templates in place.

  1. Better layout
  2. label insertions for data (that can be incorporated all over the wiki)
  3. character list (extracted from event lists)
  4. pull story synopses into a section here
  5. revisit the publication order lists - find a way to make the information have more context.
  6. Figure out a method for more interesting information dispersal/presentation of the reprints and trades.
  7. Publications page - shorten - one cover for each publication - keep the full listing page and find a way to incorporate something of that ilk for all the titles (and lets do one for the trades - with current trade-dress and links that show the old cover versions)
  8. Get placeholders in place for all issues published to date (and all cover variants?)
  9. Add link to online letters columns for each issue
