==Things to Do==
▲===Tasks for Beginner Contributors===
* Add brief descriptions to all of the games, and add links to their rules
** Focus on the games in [[Pyramid Arcade]] and from the [[Ice Game Design Competition]]
<!--* Write a requested [[Special:Wantedpages|wanted page]]-->
* Add to a [[Special:Shortpages|short page]]
* Improve a [[:Category:pages needing improvement|page that needs improvement]]
===Tasks for Experienced Contributors===
* Upload [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Reqimage|requested]] images, especially for the [[Talk:Main Page#Need photos|Main Page]]
* Add the [[Infobox]] to the [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Reqinfobox|rest of the games]]
* Check the Maintenance Special:SpecialPages
* Clean up external links.
** There are many [[Special:LinkSearch/icehousegames.org|icehousegames.org]] links that need to be replaced with internal links.<br/>For example: <nowiki>[http://icehousegames.org/wiki/index.php?title=Blam] should instead be [[Blam!]]</nowiki>
** There are around 300 bad domains found by [[Special:RottenLinks]] (Check "Show rotten links only" and click "Search")<br/>Click the number in the "Page Usage" column to see what pages link to that domain. These links should be replaced by archive.org links at the least.
===Pyramid Arcade Project===
* [[Looney_Pyramid_Games_Wiki:Community_Portal/Projects/Pyramid_Arcade|Update the wiki
===Game Rules Project===
* [[Looney_Pyramid_Games_Wiki:Community_Portal/Projects/Game_Rules|Make sure every game has rules included.]]
===What Can I Play? Project===

===Game Strategy Project===
* [[Looney_Pyramid_Games_Wiki:Community_Portal/Projects/Game_Strategy|Add strategy pages for games.]]
===Admin Tasks===
:'''Add tasks that only admins and sysops have permission to do here'''
* Fix pages marked with <code>{{tl|admin}}</code>
* Make the [[Main Page]] look nicer on mobile
** We now have the [[mw:Extension:MobileFrontend|mobile extension]] installed. For the most part, this allows things to look good on mobile devices; but the image on the main page doesn't scale properly. We probably want to figure out a way to make it fit into the mobile layout better. There are some [[mw:Mobile Gateway/Mobile homepage formatting|notes on how to do this in the MediaWiki docs]]
** It looks like the main issue is getting the front-page images scaled properly. A first step to that would be to replace all of the custom pages for each of the main page images, with one that uses [[Template:Weekly image]], so we can set parameters on these images globally rather than having to go through each one. I've done do on the first few already (for example [[Main_Page/Picture_for_week_1]]), just need to go through each of the later images ([[Main Page/Weekly images]]) and use the template.
** Design <s>favicon</s> and mobile icons for the site.<br/> - Tested various favicons, currently using a green large pyramid as it shows up well in different color themes. --[[User:Dazeysan|Dazeysan]] ([[User talk:Dazeysan|talk]]) 00:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
* <s>Add an extension for embedding videos from sites such as YouTube. Done, see [[mw:Extension:EmbedVideo|Extension:EmbedVideo]] for docs, [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]] for example.</s><br/> - This extension was not enabled in the 2023 migration, do we need it? --[[User:Dazeysan|Dazeysan]] ([[User talk:Dazeysan|talk]]) 00:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
