Series Three Overhaul Project - Odd Jobs (10/06/2022) This is a collection of odd jobs which we could use a hand with, as well as some related notes, instructions and tasklists, connected to STOP Notes tasks and other recent stuff on the wiki, as of June 10th 2022.

Railgun T Image Captions
A task that has long been on the backburner is checking and performing grammatical corrections to Kaysuami's captions for Railgun T images which were added to articles around the time that Railgun T was airing, which were prone to grammatical errors. An attempt was made to keep track of these images while we were busy with other things, though it unravelled.

The articles that have the images in question are the ones for subjects involved in the events covered in Railgun T (i.e. Railgun's Daihaseisai and Dream Ranker Arcs). Given circumstances at the moment, a definite, unified list of articles where the relevant images have been placed cannot currently be provided.

Needless to say, the episode and arc articles likely have a fair number of them, so a link list is provided below.

Below are File-only WhatLinksHere lists for each of the Railgun T episodes, utilizing the episode link which is placed in the Source entries for the Railgun T images. These in turn lead to WLH pages that list the pages where the images appear. These are not unified and overlapped with one another but this is all that can be provided at the time of writing.

Mid-Paragraph Images
This odd job follows on from the circumstances detailed in May 30th's notes under the section Direct Contact with Opening Square Brackets.

As mentioned there, before the switch to the UCP, images were often positioned within paragraphs for finer control over positioning as they appeared in the displayed article, with text wrapping around them. However, following the switch to the UCP, the images now break the paragraphs where they are placed, like so, meaning they need to be adjusted, either moved out, or moved and the paragraphs split appropriately.

After that section was written, a regex formula was found capable of identifying images that were in the middle of paragraphs with their frontal brackets in direct contact with words, full stops, commas or closing brackets, as well as one space away from them. Following this, a number of sweeps were conducted to identify such images within articles. However, the formula had a slight flaw and the amount found is beyond what we can focus on at the moment, so I've listed the articles with identified cases from the sweeps here, so the matter can potentially be tackled by others in the meantime.

Abilities/Locations
Below is a task following on from a series of check sweeps conducted on June 4th and 5th (making the bot useful while depleted manual attention was being focused elsewhere) for articles in Category:Light Novel Chapters, involving filling in some bits where information is missing:
 * Empty Abilities sections
 * Empty Locations sections

Fill in as appropriate, then de-tag.

To
Below is another task following on from the June 4th/5th check sweeps, involving filling in some bits where information is missing:
 * Adapted To sections missing manga details

Fill in as appropriate, then de-tag.

From
Also, for the Index manga, Ch135 onwards are lacking novel chapters and parts in their Adapted From sections. Some earlier manga chapters are also missing novel chapters and parts from those sections as well.

Some minor notes regarding the Adapted From sections:
 * Either 'and' or '&' are OK when they are needed.
 * If multiple parts of a chapter are covered, use Parts rather than Part before the numbers
 * If multiple parts of a chapter are covered and they are consecutive, use a dash between first and last (e.g. for Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4, use Parts 1-4). If there is a break, use a comma. If the parts are split, for the last separation, use an 'and' between the last two (i.e. for Parts 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, display as Parts 1-3, 5 and 7).

Unanswered Questions, Template:UQ
Around the 8th-10th, after a few tests, a new hover display and tracking template (Template:UQ) was implemented for entries under Unanswered Questions on the articles in Category:Light Novel Chapters, Category:Manga Chapters and Category:Episodes. This was initially done through a locator sweep using a temporary redirect sub-template, which was used to guide a series of rapid edits to properly implement the template.

The UQ template goes around an item in a bullet-point list under Unanswered Questions. Using the 'span' structure, it is set up to display the inputted status of the question (Currently Unanswered (default) or Answered in [Where Answered]) when the cursor is hovered over it. Additionally, it also allows for tracking the articles with Unanswered Questions entries via Special:WhatLinksHere, much like a TrackTag.

However, due to lack of time and the need to focus on other matters, there wasn't enough time to properly check and add in the Answered entries for most of the ones which have been answered, merely leaving an extra TrackTag in to keep track of these cases. As such, there is a lot of checking and tweaking that still needs to be performed for those cases.

The following two tracking tags have been used, in part due to the decision to have the TrackTag coming part-way through implementation processing, necessitating a re-sweep for previous cases under improvised criteria and an uncertainty over oversights (minimizing needle-in-haystack scenario).
 * Post-decision items (also include a minor check for several other anomalous items)
 * Pre-decision items (tagged via re-sweep after the above)

Grammatical Errors, Likely Pages
This is a list of pages, compiled from a cursory glance, which are more likely to have grammatical errors in than others:

Information Collections
One information collection task that has previously been mentioned is finding and assembling a list of instances where fields/branches/disciplines etc of science have been featured/referenced by name within the series, for the table that is to be made on Science.
