Todo

A list of things to do to improve the wiki. When an item is done, delete it from the list.

• : Top priority items, to do before launch
• : High priority items

Events

• Add summary/overview of general event concepts, e.g.
  • Typical event structure, i.e. Nodes
  • Player Brackets
  • Types of Rewards (progression, individual, coalition)
  • The meaning of different event types (e.g. PvE vs PvP)
  • The basics of Coalitions
• Create pages for events which aren't yet added
• Consider what images to add to each event page to improve event recognisability and visual appeal
• Figure out how best to include event-specific or node-specific strategy content to each Event page
• Add ways for people to link to external user-created content, particularly for events
  • Suggested decks for event nodes
  • YouTube walk-throughs (example from another wiki: https://exvius.gamepedia.com/Yearning_For_Peace)

Story

• Add pages for the remaining 3 Story levels: Training (Story), Battle for Zendikar (Story), and Heroic Encounters (Story))
• Add sections to each Story page summarising each Story Chapter

Planeswalkers

• Add starting deck and the "theme decks" to each PW page
• Add lore to infobox for each PW (race, birthplace, allies, etc)
• Add concise game-oriented info to each PW page. E.g. how good the PW is; basic strategy guide for Loyalty abilities (which abilities to use when); what style of deck works best (control/aggro/...); whether the PW is required for specific events; any known bugs; etc (any other pertinent PW-specific info useful to players).
• Add a page describing Deck slots
• Move PW data into data templates

Cards

• Add a section describing set-specific mechanics on each set page
• Add page for Promo cards
• Consider adding set-specific info to each Cards set page, e.g. notable cards, how the mechanics play, feel of power level, lore, etc
• Determine whether/how to present each card's own page (e.g. infobox + card image + basic content template?)
• Add page on Crafting
• Consider adding pages for tokens and other card-like things, similar to pages for cards
  • Creature Tokens
    • Leaders?
  • Support Tokens
  • Permanent Supports (are these technically tokens?)

Guides

• Consider what guides could be useful, e.g.
  • How to choose gem match
  • How the AI chooses a gem match
  • How to build a deck
  • How to spend resources efficiently
  • Guide to Planeswalkers
  • Guide to Card Sets
  • Guide to Coalitions
• Add a Guides portal page showing existing and wanted guides
• Add or fix cross-links between reference pages and guide pages

Other/General

• Determine launch plan
• Make the Main page look great. Ideas:
  • Rework as an effective portal to the wiki content
  • Beautify, remove placeholder text
  • Link to other useful mtgpq sites
  • Implement automated "card of the day" style content
• Add a Community Portal, including some kind of editing guide
• Add pages on Gameplay, possibly with sub-pages such as Gem board, Gems, and Matching
• Rework some existing message box templates (e.g. Template:Enraged and similar) to use Template:Mbox
• Consider granting more access to server operations (Octal9 is helpful but time-limited, there is currently a bottleneck on server tasks). Current server task queue:
  • Card data: Fix saga mana cost
  • Card data: Upload data template redirects from first name of 2-sided card to both//sides
  • Card data: Re-upload ZVE and M19 cards with sub-types and abilities
  • Planeswalker data: Export data for Sarkhan Unbroken from mtgpq.info
  • Card images: Upload all
