This is a placeholder page for wiki features and debugging to occur. Users can add ideas to the page at the bottom for consideration by HSL Staff and Volunteers.

Incoming features and debugging

  • Create standard nomenclature of categories for pages
  • Migrate large group pages to categories (i. e. streets, TB patients) -- I don't agree, at least for streets-- it's good to be able to see the whole street at once. But the People page should certainly be replaced by a People category, and it should be populated not from that page, but by all pages containing '''Born:'''. Same for a Buildings category, from all pages containing '''Address:''' Doctors and Nurses could be loaded from their respective pages. Same for Guides and Camp Caretakers, though they're not clean lists.
  • Standardize citation formatting
  • Add a button/form to report an issue with a page (footer?)
  • Form to submit information for a page - including images (with consent language for sharing images)
    • Related: change language on image submission from "My own work" to something about "granting rights to the image"?
  • Create standardized blurb for wiki migration, add to front page of LocalWiki and MediaWiki
  • Update old wiki homepage and header photo -- Can't find a way to change the header photo, but I have added a large THIS WIKI HAS MOVED message right below it.
  • Streamline front page-- fewer images? Or use image captions to take people to submenu pages?
  • How to create auto-populating page for categories (including photos)?
  • Initial caps for redirect pages
  • Identify and transfer missing pages
  • Create a redirect bot for LocalWiki links
  • Update thumbnail image in website tab ("favicon")-- upload it to your server and then tell MediaWiki where it is by editing the LocalSettings.php file, adding a line like $wgFavicon = "$wgScriptPath/path/to/your/favicon.ico"
  • Captcha or other account verification methods
  • Rotate existing images (bad metadata?)
  • Fix: Clicking on images opens 403 forbidden page-- I'm not seeing that anymore.
  • Restore links to Oral History pages
