View source for Countdown:Recap checking project

I thought those of us working on this project could benefit from a centralised location to identify ourselves, discuss stuff and generally do team bonding. So here it is.

{{Recap project progress bar}}

==Overview==
Our aim is complete, correct rounds for every possible episode. This is equivalent to emptying [[:Category:Unchecked recaps]] and all its subcategories. Since this is 1018 articles, it is obviously a long-term project. The first priority is to clear articles in the root category, because these are mostly done already and we can make rapid progress through them.

Correcting mistakes in existing rounds is fairly straightforward, but for full details of our house style and handling of tricky points (like misdeclarations), see our [[Countdown:Recap checking style guide|style guide]].

I suggest the following rough priorities. (For a complete list, see below.)
*[[:Category:Grand finals|Grand finals]] - done!
*CoC games - 7 to go.
*[[:Category:Semi-finals|Semi-finals]] and [[:Category:Quarter finals|quarter finals]] - 19 to go.
*Games featuring [[octochamp]]s. - 279 to go
*Other stuff.
I also suggest working from most recent to oldest, especially because it's quite hard to check the words for the oldest ones.

==People==
The following people (at least) are working on the recap checking project:-
*[[User:Smjg]] - Stewart Gordon
*[[User:Reams]] - Charlie Reams
*[[User:Drawoh]] - Howard Somerset
*[[User:Nebagram]] - Ben Wilson

==Points of discussion==
===Bug notice===
Some of the episode pages are coming up blank. If you edit the page, you'll see that all the text is there but for some reason doesn't appear. The page can be edited as normal and will fix itself as soon as it is saved. [[User:Reams|Soo]] 15:37, 22 September 2007 (BST)

===Style guide===
We need one! Both to ensure consistency amongst ourselves, and make it easier for new people to join in. Anyone want to write one? [[User:Reams|Soo]] 13:49, 19 September 2007 (BST)

===Notation for misdeclarations===
How do we indicate words disallowed due to being misdeclared? The usual ☓ is likely to cause confusion. [[User:Reams|Soo]] 13:49, 19 September 2007 (BST)
