Work In Progress

Task: keep order of and format of entries in Page Header tables consistent with their respective templates, allowing for exceptions where appropriate. Develop new templates where numerous entries diverge in their requirements.

ASK: anyone creating new pages that sees issues with existing templates, please make suggestions.

Task: replace the old  bgcolor='#E0E0FF'  with class="tablehead" (CSS) in Page Templates and previous listings. Major efforts by PeteB with help from others.

ASK: anyone editing older pages that sees the old format, please make updates.

Task: reduce the width of header tables as much as is practical for viewing and conflicts with right aligned images.

ASK: use line breaks  [[BR]]  to generate mulitple lines or multiple rows in extended information entries. Example is additional location information after an Address Macro entry in Location table entry.

Task:

ASK:

Task: verify and correct order of table entries per order in current templates by category

ASK: editors viewing the source of pages, especially older entries, should review table entry order for compliance and correct if needed.

Task: maintain standardization recommended in Business template to capitalize words within the website address for readability. Although the template suggests it for long addresses, using word caps in all website addresses adds to the look of consistency and format of RocWiki.

ASK: editors viewing pages, especially older entries, with uncapped website addresses are asked to edit and update them to the standard.

Task: replace the usage of  ||Unknown||  with  ||["Info Needed"]||  in table headers or use Info Needed within pages where RocWiki is soliciting input from viewers. Table Header examples include: Hours, Accessible, Website,

ASK: anyone editing older pages with Unkown in headers, please make the update.

Task: Define a set of standard colors for caption rows and caption columns similar to the new  <class="tablehead">  and implement with changes to the CSS files.

ASK: implement CSS and replace multicolumn tables with captions to use new classes instead of bgcolor. NOTE: colors specified below are suggested by current practice, but may not be optimal selections - see Monroe County towns, such as Gates

 In layout.css 

AFTER CURRENT

/* Header of a table */

.tablehead

{  background-color: #e0e0ff; }

INSERT ---

/* Label of a column */

.collabel

{  background-color: #fffff0; }

/* Label of row */

.rowlabel

{  background-color: #fffff0; }

<class="collabel">

<class="rowlabel"> 

Description of the Problem: There are numerous pages, mostly restaurants, that have comments more than NNN months old. These comments may be outdated and so numerous as to make the entry very long.

Task: Review RocWiki pages, starting with Restaurant pages, to identify and modify pages with comments prior to 2008. For such pages, create a sub-page named "Comments"  ["/Comments"]  and cut the older comments from the current page, then paste them into the new Comments page.

Description of the Problem: the Restaurants page, along with the pages linked into the Restaurant page, such as Diners, may be incomplete in connecting to the respective eating establishments recorded in RocWiki. Management of the Restaurants page to balance the placement of includes, etc for user presentation is sometimes problematic. Discussions of the use of the Business Template Alcohol table entry for analysis of the completeness of the lists etc - see Restaurants/Talk/RestAlc for interim results listing.

Tasks:

Monthly - change template (as of mmmmmm, yyyy) entry to reflect month and year

Periodically review listings against website, user input, or phone call

Periodically test links for validity - correct if possible
