I've come back to the game after a pretty long hiatus, which allows me to go through some of the midgame-lategame stories and patch up any pages I encounter. I also have the Ambitions to get through which I plan to hopefully work on as well.
Other people have listed things to do, so here are some of my ideas:[edit]
- Work on general table formats to be cleaner, such as Here
- More guides, the merrier!
Honestly, most of the ideas I had, written and not, have been more than surpassed by the team working on the wiki. I think I'll just be here though, devoting slightly more attention than a Good Samaritan editor with no schemes, for now.
Upkeep pages[edit]
Besides the general thrum of editing activity that follows the content releases of the game, which can more or less be followed by looking at the patch notes (I mean the discord patch notes) [That page is also desirous of upkeep], there are a fair number of routine tasks to be taken care of to keep up-to-date.
A number of these fall under the purview of admin tasks (basically anything related to templates or SMW, which have their own to do list) or automated/bot activity (most World Quality updates, cleaning up the Category:Trimmed ) which I have no qualms leaving to those idiosyncratic digitally-mazed beings of deeper learnings.
However!
There are a lot of tasks that can be done by the common editor, or reader (that's you!). So here's a shortlist of some of the simpler and easier to perform to-do lists that require more community maintenance than expert tuning:
- Fallen London Wiki:Editing Guidelines#Where do I start?
- Category:Site maintenance
- Special:WantedPages, a lot of typos mislinking (the uses guides are a WIP)
- Have a look at Special:RecentChanges to see if you might be able to help
- All the projects (Guides, QLDs, etc.) you encounter that seem outdated. Sometimes the editor who curated it is away for a bit, or recent updates mandate a large overhaul, or it was abandoned. In all these cases, you're welcome to fill in missing information, add your strategies, and maintain the veracity of information (though try to follow the format or ask the editor/the discord directly, there are often obfuscated reasons why editors choose certain formats)
- All the to-do lists you see on User pages, there are a lot of them. Consider communicating before jumping the gun on a large endeavour(there's often work being done or data being collected under the surface), but feel free to propel a WIP along
Most of all, keep an eye out for all the types of Category:Missing game data that you can fill in as you visit the wiki and notice things missing.

So here's my idea:
Pictures.
No really, I want to collect some of the cool art in the game to showcase here. It's easy to glance over the art but there's some real good stuff in here and the artists have done a phenomenal job with some of them. I still don't have an idea for what exactly I would like this to be intended for but the basic premise seems nifty to me.
Currently not started, I'll do it when I get some spare time, but if you have any ideas then you can pitch them at me.
Take this for now.
