To Do List: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:58, 28 April 2019

A page to track pages that requires fixing as well as a broad roadmap for any new features.

To-do

Add a section with tips and tricks on how to best use the emulator. We have already created the Help namespace for this purpose. Need to use it for guides and info such as:
- The difference between per-game settings and global settings. How to identify what is being used and how to access each.
- Various errors in the log and what each colour means. Explain briefly which ones to ignore and which ones to report.
Gotta mention no piracy somewhere on this wiki. Probably on the main page itself.
Improve documentation in Configurations page.

Templates

Infobox

Add a compat parameter to accept search terms other than the page name.

Error Pages

The following categories are maintenance categories that captures game pages with incorrect inputs. The number to the right of each category denotes how many pages are present within such category. Ideally, there should be zero pages within each error category. If you see a page captured below, kindly rectify the errors. Refer to the documentation in each template for guidance. Please note that this list does not cover all possible parameters and errors. You may come across errors in the game page which are not recorded here.

 '''Infobox'''
-* Rework wiki parameter to accept "NA" cases where no wikipedia page exists for the game. In such cases, the link should not appear at all.
+* Add a compat parameter to accept search terms other than the page name.
-* Rework wiki parameter to include option of linking to non-english wikipedias as a few Japanese titles only have a wikipedia page in ja.wikipedia.org. Our current implementation is limited to en.wikipedia.org.
