Detective Conan Wiki:Projects

This section aims at much better organizing and structuring contributions to the wiki by focusing all of our efforts on specific tasks one at a time. This will not only make the whole process of adding content to the wiki less overwhelming (since Detective Conan is such a huge universe by itself) but it will also help direct new contributors towards current tasks at hand. And with proper direction, they won't be confused about where to start, what is being worked on, what still needs to be added, etc...

Of course, you are still free to make any other contributions you would like and follow (or not) this process at your own pace. The goal is really to simply propose a set of guidelines and tasks that we hope to be able to accomplish within a reasonable amount of time. We will also keep track of what's been done so that we can enjoy a real feeling of accomplishment as steps are taken and get completed. :)

Simple contributions

If you're new to the world of wiki-editing and wish to help out, you may start by doing simple tasks that only require a little bit of copy/pasting or looking at examples. For a list of such easy tasks, refer to the Contributing page.

Projects

Here is a list of projects and corresponding task list we have in place. Major projects should be focused on first.

WIP projects

• Create pages for episodes chronologically.
  1. Work on each episode's page in a chronological fashion.
• Create navigation boxes to make DCW more user-friendly by grouping related articles of interest. The ones we have so far: Black Organization and Magic Kaito. Some suggested boxes:
  • Boxes for certain story arcs and their related articles (i.e. Metropolitan Police Department Love Stories, Desperate Revival, Clash of Red and Black)
  • Collectibles
  • Movies
  • OVAs
  • TV Specials
  • Staff
• Create Artist/Bands/Singers pages on Music (so that links from the Watch section don't lead to non-existent pages). Follow layout as in Mai Kuraki. A basic amount of content is acceptable for now.

Completed

• Create each individual character's page.
  1. Come up with a good InfoBox template.
• Create pages for episodes chronologically.
  1. Come up with template for episode's InfoBox.
  2. Come up with template for displaying list of episodes per season.
• Create each individual character's page.
  1. Focus on main characters. Taking data from Wikipedia is allowed (see Main Page). But feel free to add your own inputs.
  2. Work on the remaining characters based on order of importance/prominence.
