Xeno Series Wiki:To-do list

A kind of scattered collection of things that we know need to be done in the future.

Stars, where included, are an indication of how technically-difficult a project is from an editing standpoint:

• : Anyone can do this (or at least contribute to it), regardless of experience.
• : This requires some basic editing and syntax understanding/techniques, but nothing too extreme.
• : A thorough understanding of the basic editing principles is necessary, and some advanced editing techniques may help or be necessary.
• : Many difficult advanced editing techniques will be required.
• : This requires full expertise not only of editing techniques, but also of the structure and code of the games themselves, beyond what online data repositories can offer.

Of course, regardless of how difficult an edit is to make technically, you still need to know what you're talking about. Not all projects marked with 1 star are easy (otherwise they probably wouldn't be on the list), but partial contributions are often still helpful.

See also Wanted Pages, for one-off pages that need to be made.
