The Doctor's "To Do" List - Please feel free to help!
Fixing Special Pages
All of the following need fixing:
Special:BrokenRedirects
Special:DeadendPages
Special:DoubleRedirects
This is a big one and involves a LOT of old Catsdown links.
Special:LonelyPages
Fairly simple - find a related article and link to it! Example of how to fix this includes Series 53 now linking to BAFO.
Special:UncategorizedFiles
User_talk:TobyMcDonald#Images - Toby is taking the lead on this one.
Special:UncategorizedPages
Special:UnusedFiles
Use your own judgement here on whether to add to a page or delete.
Special:WantedCategories
Most of these will need fixing, rather than deleting.
Special:WantedPages
This is effectively an index of red links, so axing as many as possible would be ideal. Many of these only have 1 red link, which you can leave for now.
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, either remove the red link, or create the page but do add Category:People instead. It's a pseudonym for a reason - DO NOT REVEAL THEIR IDENTITY.
Deliberate red links
Links like Gatwick Airport appear solely in pages such as Countdown:About, so do not touch.
Other links in talk pages can stay for now, but you may wish to replace the red link with a <strike></strike>tag instead.
Featured Articles
I'm hoping to reinstate Scott Mearns to the front page (done!), 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.
Tournaments
Everything in Category:Countdown tournaments and Category:Online Countdown tournaments should really have a game table.
Co-event "episodes"
Re-order the sort codes in categories so they appear in the category Category:Co-event games under something that isn't E.
Countdown Marathon 2
Have to get round to recapping this soon.
Today in Countdown History
Needs updating.
Catsdown
May need to re-sort episodes otherwise they'll all get mixed up when we get to standard ep 8000, which isn't far away.
