Project Log[edit]

Okay. This section will be for following my current progress with the project. It will be more in-depth than the outline, but the outline will remain for overall progress. Everything for Phase 2 has been completed, except for the S and T Featured Articles. I'll update soon when I finish. (This will also prevent the Archive bot from archiving this section)  Dylanlip  (talk) 14:53, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Phase 2 is now completed, which means that all Featured Articles and Lists, and all Top-importance pages are done. I will start Phase 3 soon.  Dylanlip  (talk) 16:26, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've completed all of the A-Class articles, and I will now move on to the Good Articles. Oh, and by the way, I also added shortcuts to the section so it would be easier to link to.(They mean Video Game Banner/Template Project[Depending on Shortcut]) I'll update here again when I finish with the Good Articles.  Dylanlip  (talk) 21:27, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
All due respect, it's great that you're doing this, but I don't think all these updates (and those shortcuts) are necessary. If you want to keep a personal log, then make a user subpage to house it. –xeno (talk) 22:03, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This is to inform the editors of the current status of the project, and it also prevents MiszaBot from archiving the whole section. The shortcuts are mainly for making it easier for me to link here when making up edit summaries and other links to here. And on the topic of updates, I'm going to be temporarily on a break from the project.  Dylanlip  (talk) 13:04, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. I'm now back to continue the project and finish Phase 3. It shouldn't be that long.  Dylanlip  (talk) 14:03, 27 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Since I'm sorta in the mood, I'm going to also do Phase 5 while still working on 3. I'm just wanting to get all of the special types of pages done and out of the way.  Dylanlip  (talk) 16:43, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(ec) I've finished the disambig pages, so now I will work on the Templates.  Dylanlip  (talk) 16:57, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since it needs to be done, I will finally finish the Good Articles and Phase 3. I'll put Phase 5 on hold until I finish both Phase 3 and 4.  Dylanlip  (talk) 14:44, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about the absence. Real life has been taking over my time on Wikipedia for a while, and it will continue until after finals are over. So from now on, there will be no completion times, as I'll get them done when I have the time. Hopefully Phase 3 can be completed very soon. Other than that, it'll be a very slow process until finals are over.  Dylanlip  (talk) 15:47, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bot[edit]

I know I'm new to all this, but it sounds awfully like a bot would make this some of this much easier. Any reason you're doing it by hand? Greg Tyler (tc) 07:45, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A bot has already gone through certain articles and replaced the code. However, many pages were skipped over. Also, I'm aimed at improving the quality of each talk page I go to during this project, for better organization, archiving, understanding, etc.  Dylanlip  (talk) 15:44, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
