Series Three Overhaul Project - Loose Notes (10/03/2021)

These are some loose notes concerning the Series Three Overhaul Project (STOP), as of March 10th 2021.

Due to circumstances at present, both on and off the wiki, these notes will not be particularly well sorted for now.

Intro
I had hoped to get another batch of notes done sooner, but unfortunately sod's law got in the way again. The overall circumstances at the moment are very similar to last time - a few things have been done since then but the situation is much the same.

Series-wise, there have been some new releases and new announcements. The briefly delayed English localization of  was released about a week ago. A new story arc (which we've decided to refer to as the First Year Arc for now) has begun in the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun manga, focused on the events of Mikoto's first year at Tokiwadai. Toaru IF has a new event and new character variants coming up. The release month of  has been announced, with the volume due to be released at the usual time of the month in May, announced roughly two months in advance as usual.

Assorted Rough Notes
'''Currently compiling These are largely unsorted and currently incomplete (still reviewing data from the log):
 * SD202 - First Year Arc: SD202 has been assigned for collecting information about the sixth Railgun manga arc, which we've decided by group consensus to call the 'First Year Arc' for now, given its apparent focus on Mikoto's first year at Tokiwadai. Following the selection of the arc name placeholder, a temporary redirect for the arc has been made and partially implemented in articles, while the article itself is being drafted. Articles have been made for the new characters which have been named. TSPs have been done for Appearance, Background and Abilities. A rather sloppy Chronology addition for Ruri still needs cleaning up.
 * SD174 - Non-English Fandom Wiki Links: Earlier in the month, a series of sweeps were carried out to locate. The results were compiled in SD174.
 * SD25 - Image Tasklist: A partial update was carried out for the Image Tasklist, but a complete update has not been carried out yet.
 * SD180 - Cloning: The Cloning draft in SD180 is nearing completion, but a few details and references are still missing.
 * SD203/204 - GT4 Plans: The volume has only just been announced, but SD203 and SD204 have been assigned to the GT4 Plans, in a similar way to the pair for GT3 before. I intend to make a blog post for GT4 Plans nearer the release date.
 * All Page Sweeps: A number of auto-sweeps have been carried out while manual focus has been elsewhere, using the AllPage list. Aside from the task mentioned above for SD174, Main article template conversion and several other tasks have also been carried out, with some of the results logged. I have been trying to assemble ideas for further tasks which can be carried out in this way, while I'm working on other areas.
 * SD184 - Reference Sweeps: A number of auto-sweeps have been carried out to convert full links for anime episode, manga chapter and light novel references to quick-link format, using the lists of located items from before. Irregularities and certain results have been logged as well.
 * Accelerator manga chapter conversion sweeps have reached the 50s, as of 10/03/2021.
 * Intend to gather a list of point-five chapter and other similar articles for processing (as they haven't been covered by current procedure yet).
 * Note (11/03/2021): Have decided on sub-set method to speed process up.
 * SD162-165 - Anime Image Collections: Kaysuami has reached the end of Railgun S on SD165. SD161 and SD166 for Index-tan and MMR are not done. Plan to carry out auto-sweeps on them to make sure the Sources are appropriate once the collections are verified as complete.
 * Haven't fully confirmed that SD162-SD165 are absolutely done yet.
 * SD115 - Ruby Track: Ollerus has been continuing to convert problematic Ruby instances to the manual Ruby tags with the RubyTrack template.
 * SD201 - Human Body: SD201 has been assigned to gathering information concerning the Human Body - a large-scale task.
 * Recent Navboxes: A week or so ago, Damage made a navbox for the Story Arcs (having previously started a draft a few months ago and not expanded further up to that point), a task which was on the backburner. This was followed by ones for the Anime, Light Novels and Manga, with assistance from Ollerus. It resulted in some disruption of ongoing and pre-existing plans, partly due to spontaneity. Some things surrounding them still need tweaking.
 * Note: No more navboxes are to be created for specific story arcs for now. The ones which already exist are anomalies which still need to be dealt with.
 * Navigation Headers: Connected to the initial addition, the idea of a Navigation header to separate the navboxes from the references was raised. This had been considered as a possibility before, but was on the backburner and still needs some things assessed and done before implementation can be considered (though a batch were added for Music last year and slipped past observation).
 * SD56 - Featured Articles: Work on this end has slowed down a bit in recent weeks. With the beginning of March, one of the drafts in the stock was implemented for a new Featured Article, Divine Mixture. Have decided to switch them bi-monthly for now instead of returning to monthly immediately.
 * TrackTags: Two new special TrackTags have been made - NewVolumeArc (for tracking when we are dealing with story arcs from a new volume for which we haven't finalized the name) and TSP (tide-over, not fully implemented)
 * Have been considering the possibility of notes in the format
 * Have been considering the possibility of a TrackTag or hidden note which lists a subject featured in a chapter to act as a 'hook' for an AllPage locator sweep.
 * Planning Reorganization: Reorganization of plans is still ongoing.
 * Depression, Frustration and Upset: Factors both internal and external have been continuing to induce bouts of depression, frustration, sadness and fury. Have tried to relax and calm down, but haven't been able to step away for long.
 * Image Reminder: The notification for the Image Reminder post was repeated due to people disregarding image and reference protocols.
 * Comments/Threads etc for Moderation: There have been a number of comments which potentially need reviewing and moderating. The large-scale cleanup operation is still being considered, along with the possibility of voluntary locating efforts.
 * PK/ESP, EYES/HANDS: Not much further planning has been done for this volunteering possibility since last time.
