Series Three Overhaul Project - Loose Notes (15/01/2021)

These are some loose notes concerning the Series Three Overhaul Project (STOP), as of Jaunary 15th 2021.

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

Intro
Similar to last time, circumstances are the same as last month (hampered and feeling a bit down), and my current primary focus is still plan reorganization, general sorting and cleaning, and operation restarting (including GT3/Agnese SS TSPs, I2S follow-ups and Interim).

As mentioned previously, with overall circumstances as they are, I'm going to continue assembling a number of rough notes below connected to various things on the wiki at the moment (e.g. brief explanations, reminders regarding procedures and protocols, plans and ideas being considered etc). It is going to be a fair bit less than last time, though the next post might be sooner.

Assorted Rough Notes
The majority of the rough notes from last time still apply.
 * Wanted Pages, Redlink Neutralization: A large number of red links listed on Special:WantedPages are connected to Help:Getting Started and Help:Contents, as well as pre-UCP message wall and forum threads (the old-style links for which no longer function are the UCP switch-over). These are gradually being neutralized from the list, with the Help links adjusted to the inter-wiki format and nowiki tags being applied to the Thread links. However, since the target areas cannot be swept automatically, progress will be slower and RecentChanges will be somewhat clogged up while they are being dealt in bulk.
 * The names and links for the areas being edited initially didn't appear in RecentChanges (just the time, diff/hist, user stuff), but they do now.
 * Ruby Template: Following a few checks, the Ruby template was implemented across the wiki via auto-sweep. However, the initial checks missed a number of errors which have subsequently been detected in various places after the switch-over. We have recorded some of these errors, either made temporary fix or switched back to the previous ruby tags on several affected articles, are trying to determine the causes of the errors, and are keeping an eye out for further problems. SD115 is being used for Ruby-related notes.
 * Image Tasklist: Partial tweaks have been made to SD25 and the accompanying SDs (e.g. SD85), but most of the cleanup hasn't been carried out yet. Most of the New Years stream-introduced IF images have been added, with the exception of Lucia and Juufuku Miho, and most of the subsequent suggestions have also been added. I haven't added in notes regarding image intent for recent images, as considered previously, or decided whether to put them in list, table or gallery caption format.
 * Featured Articles: Within the last week or so, I've been considering and asked for ideas for future Featured Articles (though there wasn't much word from the others). The Beginning Child has been made the first Featured Article of 2021, but I'm continuing to compile ideas for Featured Article candidates which don't need much work doing to them to get them ready - I'm planning to build up a stock in advance (preferably a balanced one (e.g. science, magic, tech, normal, otherwise)) to save us some time and effort later, and perhaps shorten the cycle closer to the original monthly cycle.
 * New Shared Drafts and Assigned Tasks: In anticipation of future work, a new batch of Shared Drafts have been created (SD201-300). Several of the existing ones have been assigned to new tasks, including SD174 (inter-wikia link collection), SD175/176 (for collecting information in the series concerning real historical events and people) and SD177 (for comparing the wiki's article list to that of the atwiki, as requested and performed by Ollerus).
 * Image Title Review: I'm considering using the code ITR (Image Title Review) for temporary image renames (ahead of proper renaming), connected to the post-I2S work in SD155 and the SD190s.
 * Manga Chapter Infobox, Gallery Error: Spotted an error regarding infobox galleries and image switches, in the Manga Chapter infobox on . Intend to look for similar cases and make a temporary fix, prior to the problem being solved.
 * Pre-2014 Anime Image Collections: Kaysuami's progress has now reached Railgun S and SD165.
