Here are some of my suggestions:
Thanks, feedback is always welcome :-)
1) Name pages "Task:Main_Page/Cleanup" or
"Task:Main_Page/Cleanup/20051225" with a fallback such as
"Task:Main_Page/Cleanup/20051225_2"
or "Task:Main_Page/Cleanup/R3m0t" or something! I think date would be best.
I think it's best they stay "Task:" plus task number:
* If they include the page title, what if the page is moved?
* If they contain the task type, they become ambiguous
Originally, the task type was part of the name, but I changed that to
the current style.
Additionally, detailed information is given in the "Task:" page header
about original page, task type, etc.
2) Alias "Special:Assignments" to the
"?title=Special:Tasks&mode=myassignments" behaviour. :)
Could do. But why?
3) "Search
Tasks Cleanup Wikify Rewrite Delete Create Write (No selection here
will search all task types.)
Status Open Assigned Closed Won't fix
Sort Oldest first"
Remove the text "(No selection here will search all task types.)" (but
keep the related behaviour) and also tick all the task types by
default to prevent ambiguity. Then again, if somebody wants to filter
by task... well, perhaps you should wait for somebody to agree or
disagree with me before implementing it.
That would mean if I want to search for a single task type, I'd have to
unckeck all the others (I'm sure there will be more in a live version
than in my demo implementation).
The notice can be altered or removed through the usual
"MediaWiki:Message" mechanism.
4) So will you write a feature to allow admins/trusted
people to edit
the task types? :)
I'm not sure that there's a point in editing them. However, it might be
good if admins could remove them in case an initial comment contains
copyright violations, or "yo mother"-style texts ;-)
