Task List


Only items on the To-Do List that are deemed feasible, and worth the Website Team's time, moved to the Task List and perhaps mass section tasks are to be listed on this page. All others (minor tasks) are to be linked on the Tasks page.

NOTE: This list is ordered by estimated time to finish the task; the shortest, fastest, simplest stuff is at the top. If you finish one of these tasks, please remember to remove it from the To-Do List, it really does feel good to "check" something off the list...

WEBSITE TEAM: If you see any Unassigned Tasks you'd like to take, put your name by them. If you can place an estimate of when you'd finish and/or start working on it, that'd be great.

De-TODO The Website

Description:

It started during our rapid website writing period (late summer 2005), when people would put TODOs in pages where more content needed to be added. They have since been updated with the Tasks extension for easy viewing. This is what the Task extension was designed for, and it's always better to note a deficiency than to completely deny it.

HOWEVER, the whole idea of Tasks is that you'd put things in there that'd be done eventually. Well, eventually needs a boost to come sooner. Click here and see if you can complete pages with Tasks.

Add photos and videos to help complete the Media Gallery

Description:

Many pictures and videos are taken during the course of every year, yet only a few team members upload what they have. Of course, they didn't take shots of everything everyday. We need your help to add more to complete the galleries. If you don't have any pictures, you can still help. Contact Mrs. Drummer, and she'll be happy to give you a few along with some background information on each.

Find Possible Junk Pages!

Description:

Our site is full of pages that were created in the past for some reason, but aren't of any use now. It's a somewhat difficult task to find all of them, but if you run across one you think is pointless, then list it below for confirmation. Pages will be deleted if and when they are confirmed as useless.

Update Sub-Team Pages

Description:

Most team pages have something old in them or their members should be updated. Some, like the Scouting team may have too much content (nothings wrong with this, it should be checked to make sure it is current, though).

Update FIRST Homework Page

Description:

The FIRST Homework page and the FIRST Homework Assignment pages need to be updated with the proper information and all the letters we sent out. Was getting the government officials 2006 or 2007? Joe Knollenberg visited Siemens VDO, where's the letter to him? Research should be done on this.
