Here are some of the tasks that I, Jucheguevara would like to undertake. Feel free to hop in to help.
Admin tasks
High priority: need to change the sidebar items to point to the en. subdomain instead of shared. subdomain, so that images uploaded there can be accessed from the "insert image" pane when editing these pages.
- "Upload file" should be this URL Special:Upload
- And "List of uploaded files" should be Special:ListFiles
Interface editors
- Optimize the site notice for mobile
- Keep playing with the Global CSS of this site
- Tidy up the CSS for Citizen skin
- Make external links open in new tab to keep users on the wiki in previous tab (hopefully will increase engagement)
- rel="mw:ExtLink" target="_blank" or something
- research this extension to add RSS feeds to pages
Misc admin task
- Learn how to use wikibase so I can begin using it on our wiki
- Add the External links template to each page
- Perhaps I ought to redesign it so it's more user-friendly and prettier
- Research MediaWiki tools for connecting objects across wikis to automatically populate external links & promote information inflows into this wiki
- Explore using Transwiki to import from other wikis
- Research ways to transparently accept Monero donations (reddit thread) since using Bitcoin could compromise the anonymity of our donors.
- research task tracking software (kanban boards, etc.) for tracking wiki tasks across all contributors
- install this skin
- We are working on creating site backups to help us install it without destroying anything.
- See if it's possible to add thanks to recent changes, instead of only being available on a page's history page
Wiki content (anyone's tasks)
Templates
- Add the VTE pattern to all templates to make it easier for users to identify and edit templates, and add it to the template guidelines page

- Incorporate Scientific socialism § Class struggle somewhere (thanks to Spillgear on Discord for suggesting this)
- Create pages for the GFC and discuss how China's economy emerged ahead of the rest of the world
- import relevant information from here
- Copy source documents from Marxists.org or Wikisource
- Try to transcribe YouTube videos using Descript or something similar
- Complete transcribing The Governance of China
- add “Democratic Party tries to abolish the position of mayor in a city where a socialist won the Democratic Party ticket” somewhere[1]
- Go through old pages to add categories and tidy up the quality of articles
- add this somewhere ( /r/InformedTankie post )
