Osamu Sato Wiki:To Do

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

no it is highly formal !!!!!!111!1!!1

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

Suggestions that have been completed are archived here.

Wiki

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.
  - Camwoodstock has added some baller CSS, so we're no longer sporting the default Wikipedia look. Maybe next on the list is figuring out how to make a dark mode? Badcafe (talk)
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.

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.~~
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
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)

Make a page/expand pages on LSD:DE-related media.
- Lovely Sweet Dream, LSD Promo Magazine, the lost other promo magazine, Lovely Sweet Dream and Followers, one for all the promotional art/postcards.
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
- Page for the unused SYMDOG.MOM model
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

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

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).

Realistically this is just the one page about the guy but, yeah, actually expanding upon it would be good.
- There are a few different biographies of Sato at different time periods we could use as a starting point for sources. I bet there's a lot of extra info which could be added over time from interviews, as well. Badcafe (talk)
Make pages for various exhibitions he has hosted
Books
Maybe an article for Outside Directors Company could go in this category. Badcafe (talk)
