* '''Category work''' - After I created a new article on an obscure video terminal board, it was pointed out to me that since no other article linked to it, Web indexers wouldn't find it. I realized that if every article is in a category which is included in some way in one of the main categories, which are linked to on the [[Main Page]], that would do it. So I've started a major campaign to improve categories, make sure all articles are tagged, etc. I have some queries; see [[Help talk:Introduction to Categories|here]] (the best place I could think of to discuss them, since we've had similar discussions there before).

** We're currently experiencing a problem where non-logged-in users see ''old'' versions of some pages. You can check for this by going to a page's 'History' tab (which also does not show recent versions, on affected pages), and in the 'From month' pulldown menu, select '{{LOCALMONTHNAME}}', and then hit 'Go'; all the versions ''do'' show up. Clicking on the most recent version in that list will get you the most recent text. [[User:Jnc|Jnc]] ([[User talk:Jnc|talk]]) 12:55, 23 May 2018 (CEST)
 
** Uploading of content (images, etc) is also currently broken. Regular article editing works, though. [[User:Jnc|Jnc]] ([[User talk:Jnc|talk]]) 16:44, 17 June 2018 (CEST)
