This is the contribution planning document for rocketrywiki.org.
1 To Do
- Add "DynamicPageList3" extension to "Categories" page
- Change "Composite materials" page name to "Composite Materials"
- Update main page
- Create tutorial page
- Current page has title error: Creating Help:Contents
- Create request for article page
- Current page has title error: Creating ScoutWiki:Inspiration
- Create a sandbox page
- Current page has title error: Creating RocketryWiki:Sandbox
- Update the getting started “user account” link to be Create account link from top toolbar instead of Creating RocketryWiki:User account
- Add “Infobox” functionality
- Add a page request, reward, and grading system
- For reference Wikipedia:Reward board - Wikipedia
- Add page discussion functionality
- Get * bullet point functionality working. Currently creating periods.
- Add mobile responsive functionality
2 Miscellaneous thoughts
- Should we just link to Wikipedia for certain topics? Or copy the page and cite that it is from Wikipedia? Rocket engine - Wikipedia is a good example of something that could probably be mostly copied with some additions for model rocketry specifically.
- Will this wiki be exclusively for model rocketry? Some professional rocketry information could be worthwhile like notable rocket scientists and historical events.
