Series Three Overhaul Project - Loose Notes (01/08/2022) These are some loose notes concerning the Series Three Overhaul Project (STOP) and other recent stuff on the wiki, as of August 1st 2022.

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

Notices

 * Wiki currently log-in-only due to persistent anonymous vandalism, and will remain so until further notice.
 * Such vandalism will not be tolerated and offenders are liable to be blocked.
 * Regarding online release of Toaru Kagaku no Mental Out in Comic Newtype, for Chapters 7 onward, only the two most recent releases will be available on the site.

Recent and Upcoming Releases
Recent Releases:
 * Light Novels:
 * (Plans thread)
 * Toaru Kagaku no Railgun (light novel) (Railgun 15th anniversary project) (Plans thread)
 * Manga Chapters:
 * Toaru Majutsu no Index: Imaginary Fest: Mahouka collab
 * Toaru Majutsu no Index: Imaginary Fest: Mahouka collab

Upcoming Releases:
 * Regular Monthly Manga Releases (Railgun Ch141, Mental Out Ch12)
 * To be released in September. Summary released, cover not yet revealed. Plan thread will be created closer to the release date.

=Assorted Notes= Minor Unsorted Notes:
 * Thoroughly cross throughout most of July due to numerous problems, some being user-created (and some still to be dealt with) - a full write-up is not ready yet, but I do not want a continuation or increase into this month.


 * I might carry out some ad-hoc (rather than pre-planned) editing sessions to de-stress from the previous month's events.
 * There are several users whom I need to speak with about certain things.
 * Foreseen that upcoming tasks will need TrackTags, so have been trying to free up ones by optimizing and processing active tasks.
 * Due to present circumstances, some large-scale tasks might need to be semi-conducted, with a time note to revisit later for data logging and further processing.
 * Similarly, need to get notes together regarding the Regex wishlist and attempted formulas as soon as possible.
 * A check of users with Regex proficiency has been considered, but that idea is not going to be acted on now.
 * As mentioned previously, Ollerus is tasked with SD262 (Alternative Cover Images requiring Sources), specifically adding the respective Sources to their uploads.
 * As previously, grammatical error odd job description not carried forward, but it is noted that such errors more likely present in the pre-2015 stuff.
 * has not had Mental Out Ch11's Start/End text added yet, nor Accelerator Ch38 onwards.

Characters with Recently Created Articles
Given the circumstances surrounding them in recent chapters, three articles have recently been created for characters from Shokuhou's clique, one of which was named after being unnamed for many years, one who remains unnamed after many years, and one much more recently introduced who has yet to be named. The latter two have temporary titles and it is hoped that their names will become known sooner rather than later.

The character articles in question are Asato Kisa, Glasses Clique Girl (temporary title derived from her being a glasses-wearing girl, the fact that Glasses Girl is taken, the creation of Glasses Judgment Girl a little while back, and how she's been in the Hasekura and Shokuhou cliques), and the Clique Spy (fairly self-explanatory).

There are still a few minor things which need to be done concerning them. For Asato Kisa and the Glasses Clique Girl (the Clique Spy's ones have already been done), the chapters and episodes in which they appear (Railgun, Astral Buddy and Mental Out) need to be checked to make sure that they've been placed in the respective articles' Characters sections and that they are in the right positions on the lists. A cursory implementation has been done, but this needs to be double-checked to make sure that no oversights or mistakes have occurred.

Information is also to be assembled and processed on the respective Shared Drafts regarding their personalities, as well as Asato and the glasses girl's appearances/actions in Astral Buddy and Mental Out. Profile image notes are in the Image Tasklist section.

Edit (18/08/2022): Personality placeholder entries have been added, though they may need a bit of fine-tuning. A re-check of the current Mental Out chapters for the glasses girl haven't turned up any definite appearances (just some glimpses that could just as easily be of clique members seen previously with a similar rear appearance).

Edit (25/08/2022): As hoped, the glasses girl's name has been revealed; Mibuki Kazan. Adjustments in progress, with brief hiccup from a typo in the auto-sweep. Pre-Ch141 Characters placements not yet made.

Image Tasklist
As mentioned in writing before in previous posts but not carried forward in full to this one, most of the new image candidates are ideas and possibilities rather than necessities.

Unsure about having the separate 'Done' tables this time - might omit them.

IF Side

 * Temporary placeholder images are in place to prevent certain problems involving a moderate number of red-links and temptation for troublemakers, to be replaced once better/clearer images become available.
 * Temporarily tracked with TT84

Reloaded Memory Side
Table notes incomplete (04/08/2022)
 * Below considered for Collab information collection or elsewhere, given how both sides are tied together:

Toaru IF

 * Temporary placeholder images are in place to prevent certain problems involving a moderate number of red-links and temptation for troublemakers, to be replaced once better/clearer images become available.
 * Temporarily tracked with TT84

GT7 Brief Notes
As mentioned before, the summary and cover have been revealed, but the plan thread will not be made just yet - it will be created closer to the release date. However, two Shared Drafts (SD254 and SD255) have been assigned to the work, as is typical when a new light novel volume is released.

With regards to images, it is suspected that the cover might have a glimpse at an unseen but previously mentioned character, and it is hoped that the illustrations might include a decent group image for the Bridge Builders Cabal.

As per standard procedure, information and image implementation will be off-limits until the time when the volume is fully processed after release.

Carried Forward - July 13th Odd Jobs
Due to circumstances on July 13th, a set of Odd Job posts were created, connected to assigned Shared Drafts and threads as part of an experiment, for people to do while the primary contributors are busy on tasks requiring much more focus, concentration, care, attention and work overall. Below are links to the ready posts in that batch:
 * Anime Image Sources
 * Images with Categories above Licensing
 * List Assembly, Pages with Railgun T Images
 * Mid-Paragraph Images

Other linked messages and threads have been considered but not decided upon or written in full yet.

Edit (13/08/2022): Experimental thread created after considerable delay and hesitation. Several considered aspects have not worked out. Will see how things turn out.

Edit (18/08/2022): Grateful to UltraBV4 for tackling the image sourcing, Index I and II completed at time of writing, Railgun in progress.

Edit: Anime Image Sources task completed.

Carried Forward - Nihongo
Terms relating to 2019-2020 releases tagged as needing Nihongo, noted due to circumstances: (might be long-term backburner tasks, depending on circumstances)
 * L.S.S.: Street Corner Kitten Show, Animal Protection Fund
 * Club Psychedelic Beach: Club Psychedelic Beach
 * Stativarius: Almati, Guarnari

Nihongo to be verified in source text:
 * Sakibasu Yuri: Witch & Psychic
 * Grapple: MilliPhone 15 High End

=End Notes=

Post-Launch, Temporary Note Storage
Other:
 * OH&S has fixed the Slider as of 15/08/2022
 * Potential redirects relating to : Smile Pancakes, Seven Tools
 * A regex experiment on 20/08/2022 has provided a formula for auto-switching the closing brackets when converting long-link chapter references to quick-link format. While not fully optimal and requiring a few support tweaks, the method does work.
 * The next regular IF gacha has Kamijou Touma and Shirai Kuroko
 * Investigation of in-category display overrides considered to see if there are some which may overcome certain problems.
 * Review br and br/ circumstances again. Difference between the two and others.
 * CiteA/H/CP plan?
 * SD263/265s assigned, Design Images (Toaru Project/Toaru IF) requiring sources
 * Continuing problem involving the premature removal of Expands from sections before the full intended expansion has been completed, perhaps in the mistaken belief that the template has been left in due to being forgotten or belief that the existing expansion is complete/sufficient when it hasn't quite been done to that level.
 * Related problem involving undue removal after half-baked additions or uncalibrated/unrefined copy-pasting edits
 * Possible deployment of alternative TrackTag?

UQs
Unanswered Questions:
 * Previously, during Template:UQ's implementation, two batches of cases for which the hover-display status (defaulting to "Current Unanswered", with "Answered in" such-and-such for cases where it had been answered, see previous post) had not been added were tagged (one for episodes and one for chapters, both novel or manga).
 * For odd job-related purposes, rapidly went through all of them between 12th-13th (possibly another day as well) and from a cursory glance tweaked the tag to roughly sort the ones which haven't been fully checked/done into likely answered (TT65) and likely unanswered (TT95), pending proper assessment and entries in the formats described in previous post(s).
 * Several cases have a little extra tweak in the form of a dash or question mark - these are likely cases where things aren't straight forward, however due to the circumstances at the time, thorough notes could not be taken.
 * Considering SD assignment
 * SD257/258 assigned


 * Likely answered, 18/08/2022 Status, 251 articles


 * Likely unanswered, 18/08/2022 Status, 80 articles
