Revision as of 18:59, 31 January 2007
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
A forum for discussing how to make better articles, have better images, more consistent content and so forth and so on, and strategies to implement this. Discussions on how to recruit more members, and changes to the look (new logo, re-skinning, etc.) can go on in other forums. here, we talk about the actual articles and categories. --***Stardizzy*** 16:24, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Stub
Well, if we can, first of all it might be a good idea to expand some of the stubs, especially those which can easily be made into longer articles... ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 16:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Article Priority
I do think a list of priorities of what needs to be done in terms of articles would be a good idea. We need to at least get the basics sorted, which is what people would expect to see. To my mind, that means reasonably good pages on all the TV stories and all the Doctors, companions and major monsters and villains. A lot of work has been done on the TV story pages but ther are still some with that sad old table template stuck on them (and nothing else). I've been going through the stories in order and inserting the new infobox template along with a photo. As a result, evertying up to The Seeds of Doom has the correct infobox and an image. But a lot of these still need at least basic story and cast info adding. I do worry that we are creating a wiki that's 'off-balance' for want of a better description. By that I mean a wiki that has detailed information on fairly obscure or minor subjects but is missing the big ones. It would be rather like going to the Star Wars wiki only to find articles on an obscure robot that was mentioned on one page of a comic-strip, but no article on The Empire Strikes Back or The Phantom Menace.

Galleries
Galleries can also be used to help provide pics, as well as the new Image Request forum topic. So far we have at least a Gallery of Daleks, which I think I'll try to sort out... ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 17:22, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
