Revision as of 16:28, 28 May 2020

It is currently Thursday 6 June 2024.

If you happen to come across my edits, I usually tend to make long but very spaced-out bursts of activity to do with Countdown. I'm still interested in the programme, but not as much as I once was. (Mind you, given I'm heavily procrastinating on my dissertation...)

Operation "Clear Wanted Pages"

If you can help with clearing Wanted Pages, then do so. This is effectively an index of red links, so axing as many as possible would be ideal.

These are roughly in several categories:

People

Mostly from Co: events, it may be worth adding them with the Category Category:People who have not appeared on Countdown. If their co-event name is a pseudonym, create the page but do not add the category. It's a pseudonym for a reason - DO NOT REVEAL THEIR IDENTITY.

===Co-events=== These need a skeleton article if nothing else.

  • Completed - all co-events now have a skeleton page. Please feel free to markup.

Co-event "episodes"

If recap not available (very unlikely), then remove the red link from the series-link template on the adjoining games.

Online tournaments and "episodes"

These are a legacy of pre-Apterous's tourney system when the Wiki was the only way of recording them (myself included here, guilty as charged). Either redirect to the tourney mainpage or to Apterous.

Deliberate red links

Links like Gatwick Airport appear solely in pages such as Countdown:About, so do not touch.

Featured Articles

I'm hoping to reinstate Scott Mearns to the front page, Harvey Freeman too. I would also like to see new featured articles for 2021 and would like to mark-up Gary Woodward at some point.

Template roll-outs

Template:Octostats and Template:Notasked should be rolled out to octochamps and early-series episodes, asap.
