==Members of this project==
If you want to help in this project you can just link yourself below and also add {{Ic|<nowiki>{{Maintenance member}}</nowiki>}} on your user page.<br>
Members so far are:
* [[User:Paula]]
* [[:Category:Maintainers|category of all maintainers]]
==Reports==
There are a lot of maintenance reports in the first section of the page [[Special:SpecialPages]]. Most tasks for this projects will be related to those reports.
===Highly interesting reports===
These are the reports that should be checked regularly and ideally be empty.
* [[Special:BrokenRedirects]]
* [[Special:DoubleRedirects]]
* [[Special:UncategorizedCategories]] should only contain Super-categories
* [[Special:UncategorizedFiles]]
* [[Special:UncategorizedPages]] should only contain Main Page
* [[Special:UncategorizedTemplates]]
===Interesting reports===
These are reports that have the second highest priority. The goal is to get some of them empty over time as well.
* [[Special:FewestRevisions]] ignore translations - other pages might need some looking-over -> [[Project:Quality control]]'s job
* [[Special:WantedCategories]] should maybe be created - never directly create wanted translated categories, but translate the original category
===Slightly interesting reports===
These are reports that should not be of high concern.
* [[Special:DeadEndPages]] contain lots of Drafts
* [[Special:LongPages]] are not really an issue
* [[Special:OrphanedPages]] contain lots of Drafts
* [[Special:ProtectedPages]] only Paula can edit those
* [[Special:ProtectedTitles]] empty
* [[Special:ShortPages]] ignore Main Page and translations - others might need more content -> [[Project:Quality control]]'s job
* [[Special:UnusedCategories]] ignore translations - other categories should either be used or deleted (might be typos)
* [[Special:UnusedFiles]] contain files used deeper in the wiki - others might be unnecessary
* [[Special:UnusedTemplates]] ignore translations - other than that contains mostly templates that are just currently unused
* [[Special:UnwatchedPages]] contain mostly translations - only relevant if you use watchlist and not [[Special:RecentChanges]]
* [[Special:WantedFiles]] only some of these are really wanted
* [[Special:WantedPages]] contain mostly missing translations
* [[Special:WantedTemplates]] contain mostly missing translations
===Broken reports===
These are reports that don't work on this wiki.
* [[Special:AncientPages]] don't really show the oldest pages - also not really relevant
* [[Special:WithoutInterwiki]] doesn't work with the translation extention that we use
==Translations of categories==
Here we'll list which categories in the [[:Category:Super-categories|category tree]] should be marked for translation (by adding <nowiki><languages/><translate></translate></nowiki>) and which not.<br>
Generally it's a good idea to mark a category for translation, if the pages in it are/should be marked for translation.
'''Legend''':
* ✔️ means the category is already marked for translation
* ✔️❗️ means it should be but isn't marked for translation
* no emoji means it's not decided yet
* ❌ means it shouldn't be marked for translation

==Other tasks==
* all categories should be in plural form (Drafts, Fediverse projects...). This was not considered in the past, but [[User:Paula]] did a mass-action to change that. If you find a category where it's still wrong let Paula know. Only she can use [[Special:ReplaceText]].
* check [[Special:NewFiles]] and add license information and source
* make sub-categories of large categories where it makes sense
* make sure all pages are categorized correctly
* decide which pages should be included in the [[Template:Navbar]]
* writing and improving the [[:Category:Editing guides]] is generally the task of [[Project:Guidance]], but questions like "how should articles be categorized" (see [[Project:Style guide]]) also fall into our jurisdiction.

==What was going on on February 14th and 15th?==
|-
|[[User:Paula]] was moving some templates and categories and then starting an automated process to change all referrals to those templates and categories. This was done to follow the {{Internal link |target=Join_the_Fediverse:Style_guide#Capitalization |link-name=naming scheme (see Capitalization and Naming scheme)}} and for consistency. Here is what has been changed:
* Template:Internal Link -> Template:Internal link
* Category:Meta Media -> Category:Meta media
* Template:LangSwiInd -> Template:Language switch (I had renamed that because the template had issues and I thought it was because of the name, but it was something else)
* Template:Infobox App -> Template:Infobox app
* Template:Infobox App short -> Template:Infobox app short
* Template:Infobox Platform -> Template:Infobox platform
Paula did:
* First create a [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice]] to warn of broken links, categories and templates ✅
* Move the pages, e.g. Template:Internal link to Template:Internal link ✅
* Use [[Special:ReplaceText]] to let the wiki do the rest automatically ✅
* After it was all done checked reports and category tree for mistakes ✅
** Some things simply took time to be fixed ✅
* And also [[Special:PageTranslation|marked pages for translation]] ✅
* Marked Template:Infobox for translations and incorporated sub-pages ✅
* Figured out why translations of Template:Language switch are wanted (was simply used where it wasn't necessary) ✅
