Series Three Overhaul Project - Loose Notes (14/12/2020) These are some loose notes concerning the Series Three Overhaul Project (STOP), as of December 14th 2020.

Assorted Rough Notes

 * Column Balancing: In order to further balance the columns on the front page, Ollerus has temporarily added Kamachi's Twitter to the Twitter template.
 * Comments: Comment activity which has occurred over the past week (including troll/hater/counter-hater activity), has reinforced the idea that a comment cleanup operation might be needed.
 * Blogs: The old items which were unintentionally brought-up to the top have now been displaced from the top, but the root cause has not been identified. Several temporary redirects have been made for the SD review entries ahead of the thing being ready so that the posts made afterwards mean they don't swamp the box when they are made.
 * Music-related Edits: As per an earlier suggestion, a tweak has been made to the album infobox used on music-related pages and the functions of the Album chronology template incorporated into it. The contents of the used Album chronology template on those pages have been transferred to the infobox and the template at the bottom replaced with a new Template:Music navbox made by Ollerus. This navbox has also been placed at the bottom of other appropriate articles.
 * Temporary Rename with Code: An idea which has been considered from items being renamed as part of the I2S is to renamed them with a temporary name for now (with a code term to identify it as part of the batch) and decide on a proper name for them afterwards when there is less on the go.
 * Shared Draft Sorting: Before the SD-related rough notes (e.g. explanations, protocol reminders, plans/ideas etc) mentioned last time could be made, I needed to go through a list of the current Shared Draft assignments and organize them properly. Unfortunately, the organization attempt has ended up in a semi-controlled chaotic state (like quite a number of things annoyingly). An external encounter with something which reopened an old wound and triggered a depressed/angry, non-focusable state hasn't helped. The sorting attempt is still a way off from completion, so those rough notes may have to wait a bit longer (alternatively, they could be done as the stages of the sorting are done, but then they wouldn't be to organized themselves).
 * Index/Railgun I/II, Existing On-Wiki Image Collection: Kaysuami is continuing to gather the existing images on the wiki for the first two seasons of the Index and Railgun anime on the SDs, as requested for the purposes of assisting the tasks to come, and is making good progress.
 * AllPage Record Test: Copying from the post-UCP switch Special:AllPages still produces a list usable for sweep aids when copied via external notepad program - new redirect labels are not copied. State when copied from AllPages directly to the wiki editor is not verified yet.
 * Errors, Editor Opening and Message Walls: An error message has appeared a few times when the editor was opened - screenshot taken for analysis. The previous error, regarding not being able to edit one's own messages on admin wall threads unless at admin level, needs checking up on.
 * Number Games?: Uncertain whether there should be a Numerology link for Albert Dying and the Guilds' number game mentions or not.
