Osamu Sato Wiki:To Do

As a warning, this page is fairly informal in tone.

A page just to document what needs to be done on the wiki. Suggestions are appreciated!

Wiki

• FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HEY THAT INTERNAL SERVER ERROR THING IS AND FIX IT ON THE SPOT <--- TOPPEST PRIORITY
  • This seems to be gone, at least on my end. Ga-show (talk) 11:22, 15 May 2022 (PDT)
  • Can confirm this still exists as of posting. Camwoodstock (talk) 20:31, 13 June 2022 (PDT)
    • Seems to have finally been fixed for real by Badcafe and Nosamu. Ga-show (talk) 04:02, 25 October 2022 (PDT)
• Make URLs pretty (remove the "index.php?title=" portion)
  • Possibly use grabbers to take pages from the abandoned Eastern Mind/Chu-Teng wiki? No idea how good they would be.
    • Isn't that plagarism? Does Fandom even allow for Creative Commons? Ga-show (talk) 22:20, 24 March 2022 (PDT)
      • Wiki grabbers are used all the time in actual migrations of wikis, and are officially defined by Wikipedia itself. Considering the abandoned state of the other wikis, it may be fine? Either way, seeing as we plan to rewrite all those articles as-is, it may not be too big a deal... Camwoodstock (talk) 11:27, 26 March 2022 (PDT)
• Customize the site's appearance?
  • CSS in general would be good, actually.
• Infobox for Albums.
  • Done, also added Infobox for videogames Ga-show (talk) 08:14, 22 October 2022 (PDT)
• Create some proper staff roles so users can possibly protect/delete articles without begging Badcafe to do so.
• Possibly additional maintenance templates like a robust "todo" template with a field that can be customized.
• Sourcing some external information stuff.
• Proper Bulk File Upload would be nice. The current plugin (MsUpload) relies on another plugin, which may actually be fairly useful in of itself.
  • Installed!
• Updating the MediaWiki version as a troubleshoot thing.
  • Done, but it didn't really change anything.

Content

Eastern Mind

• Finishing the Item pages. The only pages missing info outright as of last update are:
  • Tong-Nou Illustrated Book (fully transcribed the book, the only hurdle is the damn Internal Server Error. Fixing this should be the highest priority.
    • This is currently walled by the 500 Internal Server Error issues.
• Add missing Japanese names to certain items. The items with missing Japanese names as of last update are:
  • The Nameplates
    • Did all the magatama. Ga-show (talk) 11:33, 15 May 2022 (PDT)
• Tong-Nou Book-styled template to make excerpts from the Tong-Nou Book fit better with the page overall and include transcribed information from the Book, without bloating the Infoboxes by shoehorning book info into them (currently highest priority, next to finishing Item pages)
• Making the Character pages
  • Making a flexible Eastern Mind Character infobox that fits both reincarnations, kings, and side-characters
• Making the Place pages
  • Making a Place infobox
• Create redirects for common spellings or capitalizations or other such things (e.g. Eyeglasses for Eye-Glasses, Eyeball Stone for Eyeball-Stone (currently low-priority, creating the pages themselves is an upper priority)
• Add more images for Items, namely their images in the world of Tong-Nou and not just their furoshiki icons (currently lowest-priority, would be nice to have and to work on in the future, but not the focus)

Chu-Teng

• Everything, maybe wait until Eastern Mind's pages are done though.

LSD: Dream Emulator

• Make a page/expand about media about LSD:DE
  • LSD Revamped (album), Lovely Sweet Dream, LSD Promo Magazine and Lovely Sweet Dream and Followers
• Make a page about the texture sets
  • Make a section about how they cycle every 40 days
• Expand page about Linking
• Make a page about music mechanics (soundfonts and stuff)
• Make a page about the day cycles
  • For each field, sort the entity list by even/odd days
• Make a page about data analysis
• Make a page about glitches
  • Wall-clipping, trigger bypassing, glitch textures
• Standardize field pages (some have the sections out of order)
  • Add more categories for fields
• Finish all entity pages
  • Get renders of them from LSDView
  • Don't forget to specify which entities the cicrle button works on or not (like the Black Wolf)
  • Fix link locations
• List of FMVs/text dream entries
  • Page about the ending?
• Page on sky/fog/clouds and stuff
  • The game chooses certain presets for certain fields on certain days
    • Find out when the cycle repeats, if there even is one (not 40 days, perhaps 90 days?)
    • Make a full list of these presets, and when they're used on what day
• Make a page about Flashbacks

Rolypolys duology

• Maybe some redirects for the English name of the game? Or the fan-nicknames of "Rolypolys 1" and "Rolypolys 2".
• Finish the Letter pages
• Make the Character pages

Planetokio

• Everything, even more aggressively because this game is almost entirely un-documented.

Rhythm'n'Face

• Everything, but a little less aggro.

Lost Media

• Update Compu Movie article with demo CD/interview findings
  • What interview? Nice notes, past me. Badcafe (talk)
• Update Rolypolys no Sekai Ryokou with demo CD findings

Artwork

• Finish all the pages, possibly including galleries
• Artwork collection navbox would be nice, too.

Albums

• Album navbox. It bears repeating.
  • General-purpose media navbox covers this now Ga-show (talk) 07:01, 22 October 2022 (PDT)
• Tracklist formatting like on Wikipedia.
• Samples/elements reused from old games (e.g. Dr. Boochang Lee bass loop in Wolfunkadelic).
• Potentially making pages for certain songs (e.g. I Love You, Tong Nou Theme, Come On And).

Osamu Sato

• Realistically this is just the one page about the guy but, yeah, actually expanding upon it would be good.
• Make pages for various exhibitions he has hosted
• Books

Meta

• Expanding the scope of the Meta section itself would be good.
  • Maybe make pages about certain notable community things? That's to be decided, though.
