This is a list of open to do's for this wiki. Feel free to add issues to this list. For more general ideas, please have a look at PersonalScienceWiki:Brainstorming. For issues related to a specific page, you can add your comment directly to that page's discussion page. To keep this list uncluttered, please discuss the issues on the "Discussion" page of this page, referring to the issue's heading. Thank you for contributing to bringing this wiki to life!
Open Issues
Links / Spam
Definition of rules for when something is and isn’t appropriate / good practices ; Who maintains the wiki / removes spam regularly / enforces the rules? - Katoss (talk) 14:50, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
Backups
There are daily VM backups in Digital Ocean. Should there be other backups? - Katoss (talk) 14:50, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
Homepage structure
The home page needs content and structure. A suggestion by User:Esenabre is here: Template:Homepage. - Katoss (talk) 15:10, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
Homepage: About
We need a short text introducing the wiki(@User:Madprime would you still like to give it a try?) - Katoss (talk) 15:10, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
How can users reset passwords?
At the moment the wiki cannot send emails, so nothing happens when users request resetting their password. Is there another way to allow them to reset their password? If not, how can we activate email functionality? - Katoss (talk) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC) (Source)
"Why wiki"?
It might be good to have a short text reasoning why we develop this wiki, and how it is different from other existing platforms. This could be part of the "about" text on the homepage, or maybe a dedicated text, e.g. on the Help:Personal Science Wiki FAQ page. - Katoss (talk) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC) (Source)
Which metadata should the pages use?
Which metadata would be good to have for tools, topics, people and projects in order to make pages easily findable and create a useful semantic structure for this wiki? (I hesitated to put this into "brainstorming" rather than "open issues". It might be good to agree on some basic/evident properties now and to let the rest develop over time) - Katoss (talk) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC) (Source)
Done
Reference extension
Adding the 'cite' extension to the wiki, so it is possible to add references/footnotes - Katoss (talk) 14:50, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
"people" page vs "user:" page
As far as I understood there was consensus on making separate pages for individuals (a page in the "People" category, and a "User:USERNAME" page). The User: page is the personal page of every user, where they can write what they like (similar to user: pages on wikipedia), and the "People" page is the "public" page about the self research practice of that person. Here are some thoughts from User:Madprime and from the self research chat on that issue. - Katoss (talk) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
