KeyWiki:Project Directory
The purpose of this page is to organize KW's structure, including:
- Projects (work that needs doing on assemblages of related pages)
- Organizing templates
- Categories, subcategories and so on.
First steps
Please strike out tasks as you finish them. If you plan to do a task in the next week or so, and you want to make sure no one else duplicates your effort, puts dibs on it by placing your user name next to it in this list. (Like this: TeaParty 17:31, 24 September 2011 (UTC)).
Current to do list:
Design a talk page template called {{kw}} to go on the discussion tab of any page that is about KW. This template should includes links to all of KW's major "about" type pages or core content areas.--Palmetto 11:59, 29 September 2011 (UTC)- Build a model state template and then build 50 state project templates: These will go on the "discussion" tab of articles related to that state. Note that the talk page project template for all states is the zip code of the state, with the exception of Tennessee, where it is {{tenn}}.

Proposed next steps
Here are two steps that I will be working on.--Palmetto 13:24, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
- Go through the list of Uncategorized categories and Uncategorized pages to begin adding top-level categories.
- Create top-level categories, specifically relating to pages that are about political organizations.
I started adding the state talk page templates we just made to all appropriate pages. I am current through Delaware. -Reaganomics 23:40, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
- Current through Iowa --Palmetto 15:22, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Current through Louisiana --Reaganomics 18:40, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
- Current through Maryland --Reaganomics 00:32, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Current through Minnesota --Reaganomics 04:58, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
- Current through Minnesota --Reaganomics 04:48, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
We're also in need of lots more disambiguation pages. A good way to find where these are needed is by checking all the blue links on one of the (State Name) Elected Officials 2010 pages.
Category proposal
- Here are the current categories.
- Here are the categories that are not further grouped into a parent category
As a rough cut, I propose these categories:
As part of a larger Category:Publications group, these subcategories:
And these, which will have to be further organized at some point:
- Category:Conferences (this can be subcategorized in Category:Events)
- Category:Petitions (this can be subcategorized in Category:Events)
- Category:Events (This should for now go into the highest top category, Category:KeyWiki fundamental categories)
- Category:Activists (This can be subcategorized into Category:People)
- Category:Writers (This can be subcategorized into Category:People)
- Category:Editors (This can be subcategorized into Category:People)
- Category:Publishers (This can be subcategorized into Category:People)
- Category:Committees
- Category:Organizations (This should for now go into the highest top category, Category:KeyWiki fundamental categories)
This does not include what to do about profiles of politicians. If you have a proposal for what to do about politicians, please offer it here.
We also want projects to correspond to some of these categories, specifically, projects for:
- The Category:Publications group.
- The Category:People group.
- The Category:Events group.
So, we need WikiProject pages for those proposed projects, and we need WikiProject description/talk page templates for them, as in:
- KeyWiki:WikiProject Publications with its talk page template: {{kwpubs}}
- KeyWiki:WikiProject People with its talk page template: {{kwpeople}}
- KeyWiki:WikiProject Events with its talk page template: {{kwevents}}
