UniWiki:Projects
From EVE University Wiki
UniWiki projects are substantial changes to UniWiki that require expert knowledge, weeks or months of work to complete or are worked on by more than one editor. Any capsuleer can take on a UniWiki project. Any capsuleer can propose a new UniWiki project by filling out the {{Wiki project}} template.

- Problem
- EVE University 2.0. will replace the concept of a campuse with a concept of a community. EVE University policy and rules pages are spread out and well interlinked. It is unclear which EVE University department is responsible for maintaining which service or protected page. There is no unified navigational template that shows the width and breath of EVE University services and programs.
- Description
- Use Template:Navbox to construct a navbox that merges and replaces Template:HR Navbar, Template:Campus Group Navbar and Template:FCC Links, links to pages in Category:EVE University and Special:ProtectedPages related to EVE University as an EVE Online corporation. Because there are about a hundred protected pages, it is likely that the template will include about eighty or more links. After constructing it, include it at the bottom of all pages that the template links to.
I cannot overstate the benefits of this project: it allows every capsuleer to inspect what each department and directorate does, it shows which department is responsible for maintaining a page, it lists all the services, policies and rules, centralized template maintenance, promotes EVE University as an EVE Online corporation and encourages good template documentation, proper page categorization and Wiki collaboration. With plenty of examples, each department manager will be able to add more pages to the template as well as reorder them based on their importance, all on a single Wiki page.

- Status
Done. The project has been completed.
- Problem
- Mission pages have no less than five separate navigational templates which confuse editors and readers alike due to how similar they are. Some are placed at the top, but they should be placed on the bottom of the page.
- Description
- Use Template:Navbox to construct a navbox that merges and replaces Template:MissionLinks, Template:AnomicMissionNav, Template:EpicMissionArcBoilerintro, Template:Missionrelated and Template:ThePloyNav. After constructing it, include it at the bottom of all pages that the template links to.

- Problem
- There is a very large number of agent and COSMOS mission pages that are either orphaned or dead-end pages, making UniWIki navigation difficult.
- Description
- Use Template:Navbox to construct a navbox that links to COSMOS agents/missions. Because there are hundreds of COSMOS agents, it is likely that the template will include a large number of links. After constructing it, include it at the bottom of all pages that the template links to.

Perfect Refiner Template
- Problem
- Perfect Refine List is a list of volunteers with excellent skills who refine ores. Because there is no template each refiner/user formatted their skills, availability, cost and last update date according to their ability making it difficult for readers to parse information.
- Description
- Examine the Perfect Refine List and propose a new template that perfect refiners could use to describe who they are, how much their services cost, when it was the last time they updated their skill list, what implants they have, their contact information and what ever else you think perfect refiners would like.

Resuscitate EVE University's Epic Arc
- Problem
- The Explorer's Shadow is an Epic Arc created by EVE University members for EVE University members. It is woefully out of date.
- Description
- Reconstruct the Epic Arc. Propose how big it should be, what needs to be changed, coordinate with other editors, propose additional templates, ... This is an ambition project that requires an ample amount of perseverance.

Template (EVE University) Events
- Problem
- Events Department used Events Template page as a template for their Events. That means each event page had to be created by copy-pasting the format and contents rather then being created by an actual template, making maintenance difficult.
- Description
- Use the new Template:EVEUniEvent to re-template each event in Events.

- Problem
- Category:Infobox templates are copy-pasted, use custom CSS and are hard to maintain.
- Description
- Use the Template:Infobox to re-template each template in Category:Infobox templates.

- Sandbox
- Draft template CMBSiteInfo+demo
- Status
- In progress. Feel free to join in by contacting one of the project Editors.
- Problem
- Category:Wormhole sites not connected to each other making them difficult to access.
- Description
- Use Template:Navbox to construct a navbox that connects Category:Wormhole sites, similar to how Template:Combat Anomalies links Combat Anomalies. After constructing it, include it at the bottom of all pages that the template links to.

Replace Icons With Files
- Problem
- Template:Icon is 10x less CPU efficient than placing an icon through the [[File:filename|dimensions|tooltip]] syntax.
- Description
- Starting with Category:Templates that put icons into pages, replace Template:Icon invocations with the File: syntax.
