Todo list for Eurth
Meta
- Open up this to-do list for everyone to help.
- Clean-up all references to removed players. Use the Special:WhatLinksHere tool.
- Update the Big Fat Quiz of Eurth.
- Resolve the plot holes in Portal:Eurth/Lore.
- Update the Portal:Eurth page with a world map. Look at Portal:Gentu for inspiration.
- Add HOS/GOF to the Eurth#Countries table.
- Clean-up the filenames used in Flags of Eurth by moving the files to a standardised format "Flag of CountryName.extension"
- Introduce some regularity to focus creativity and get people more involved. Staff will be on-hand to help members with each particular subject. Re-use the idea from April 2020 of having themed weekdays. https://discord.com/channels/274678876242837505/570737592266391562/696061911397302342 I didn't mean it to be compulsory. More like regular moments to help out other people with their questions or show some new stuff. I don't know. On another channel, I saw "Worldbuilding Wednesday", which seems to prompt many new ideas. Each Wednesday, they share worldbuilding writing prompts. Something to look forward to.
- Mapping Monday (to get people to make their own maps, or ask help)
- Tech Tuesday (to get more realism into our use of current/past technology)
- IIWiki Wednesday (to improve page quality and get help)
- Theology Thursday (Salvia: "Theology Thursday would be useful. Religion needs development on Eurth")
- Feedback Friday (meta, general banter, no work)
- History Saturday (to deepen the lore, and because I like history and mostly have time on Saturdays)
- Strategic Sunday (to improve the quality of conflict RP, and establish a standard of what's acceptable)
- Explain to the community how the staff per continent works. This includes all levels of staff: academy (mentor), roleplay (mod) map (cartographer), technical (admin). Sticky this on the Portal:Eurth.
- Switch User:Orioni to https://iiwiki.us/wiki/Template:UserboxNew
- Redesign the Portal:Eurth with the responsive layout of Portal:Gentu and/or NS Index.
- Establish Eurth article quality for IIWiki. See also: Wikipedia:Content assessment.

Anything to boost the profit margins of MedPharm." That'd be over in Golden River countries, including Ide Jima, Koku and Jaihu. Perhaps we can co-create the company as a Chiquita-variant, but for rice. This could involve funding for terrorists: see Chiquita Brands International#Payments to foreign terrorist groups.
- Have Mercy International published an annual international report, like this one: https://www.amnesty.org.hk/en/resources/human-rights-report/amnesty-international-report-1415/

- First nuclear weapon goes off in Sunset Sea Islands at the end of the Thalassan War. This creates the reason for the country changing from Mat Troi Lan to the Kingdom of SSI.
- Figure out who is credited with discovering the New Wurld. Compare for example with Assim Asteris and Asteria Superior#History over in Kylaris.
- In 202X a Moonrush will begin in earnest.[1]
- Can we bridge some cross-regional RP with !Aterians (150K,000 BCE) from Anteria? See also Round Head Period#Climate.
