Half-Life Wiki:Projects

Welcome to the Combine OverWiki Official Projects page! Here the administration lists wiki wide projects that need to be done in order to improve the current state of the wiki. Some projects may require entirely new articles to be created, and some may just require some code to be added to certain parts of the wiki. The Manual of Style and Layout Guide still matter here, so it is recommended that users become acquainted with those prior to working on a project.

The No More Orphaned Images Project
Currently, the Unused Files page has a lot of images on it. These images could easily be added to many pages on the site to greatly improve the information of any particular article. Some can be put directly in the article, and others can make use of the Gallery feature to provide the most images per page. To learn how to use the Gallery function, check out the Image Help page for an explanation. If you come across an image that seems to not fit our standards of quality or is a duplicate of an existing article, flag it with the deletion template and a sysop or bureaucrat will check into the possibility of deleting the image.

'''Please Note: Some Images will be linked to places via the use of links like File:Image.Jpg. Due to the coding of the wiki, these images will appear to be unused when really they are. Please check the "What Links Here" function to make sure that the image actually doesn't link anywhere before flagging it for deletion.'''

No More Non Half-Life Universe Games Project
Overtime, all articles unrelated to the Half-Life universe will be removed, since they are better covered on specialized wikis, such as the Team Fortress, Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat and Left 4 Dead wikis. In that way the Combine OverWiki editors can concentrate on Half-Life related subjects only, which will greatly improve their coverage. Most of the related images will also be removed, although the Moby Francke article for instance will remain unchanged, as Francke worked on most of the Team Fortress 2 classes and the related images are relevant to his work gallery.
