Revision as of 12:27, 6 April 2007

I'm working on an updated version of this checklist at User:Catherine Woodgold/checklist v1.1.

The main thing I'm doing is: I'm replacing repetetive code with calls to Template:Yes-or-no (which I seem to have accidentally created with a capital letter at the beginning of its title; I meant "yes-or-no".) This should have no effect at all on how the template displays, but cuts down the length of the code, hopefully making it easier to read and maintain.

I feel that more documentation is also needed. Us poor newbies who have just been told that there are no acronyms here don't necessarily immediately realize that "abc" means "form of title for purposes of putting into alphabetical order, e.g. 'Smith, John'" or even that "y" means "yes" or, most importantly, that "check: yes" means "yes, it needs to be checked" as opposed to "yes, it has been checked and is OK". --Catherine Woodgold 12:07, 6 April 2007 (CDT)
