| − | === wiki move cleanup: link edition ===
| |
| − | Some of [https://geohashing.site/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=0&target=http%3A%2F%2F%2A.xkcd.com special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=0&target=*.xkcd.com] can be converted into intrawiki links or oldid template calls, and maybe others into interwiki links for the comic and blag and what-if and store? There's about 1300 links if you also include the https URLS. [[User:Arlo|Arlo]] ([[User talk:Arlo|talk]]) 00:53, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
| |
| − | :A lazier fix would be to wait for davean to enable redirects from the old site, which he's offered to do!--[[User:DanQ|DanQ]] ([[User talk:DanQ|talk]])
| |
| − | ::I think both approaches work together; one enables links to work while the cleanup is in progress. And the non-wiki.xkcd.com links at the xkcd.com domain are still online, and it might be nice to have them in [[special:interwiki]]. Up to you, of course.

| − | :[[User:FippeBot|FippeBot]] switched out the links today, with the exception of the one on the [[Dark Ages]] page. The [{{canonicalurl:Special:LinkSearch|limit=200&target=wiki.xkcd.com}} link list] seems to be cached, but some progress is already showing. Currently it contains 111 entries. It seems that all pages transcluding [[Template:Advert]] in particular seem to be stuck on the list, even if the pages itself (such as [[2009-09-10 51 -1]]) already link to the new page. --[[User:Fippe|Fippe]] ([[User talk:Fippe|talk]]) 18:34, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

| − | == Pre-[[Dark Ages]] TODO List ==
| |
| − | Add the things you think need to be done, but can't do yourself. Remove the bullet points when you've fixed something.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === iDevice apps ===
| |
| − | Both the [https://itunes.apple.com/app/geohash/id284951057 KCKD iPhone app] and the [https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/geohash/id599808973 Garafa iPhone app] seem to no longer work (at least not with iOS 11). I believe there are now no iPhone geohashing apps that work with iOS 11 or later ... but I'll be very happy if anyone can prove me wrong. :-) [[User:BrendanTWhite|BrendanTWhite]] 21:18, 4 April 2018 (ACST)
| |
| − | : The link on the iPhone app page [http://itunes.apple.com/app/geohash/id284951057?mt=8] labelled "Geohash support" is broken.

| − | === misplaced expedition ===
| |
| − | Jim removed an apparently invalid expedition and photo from [[2009-01-10]] Someone should see if the real [[2009-01-10 29 -95]] is hiding someplace that isn't obvious.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === archived coords ===
| |
| − | Expedition Archive pages (like [[2010-07]]) show same coordinates for every day (looks like an error)
| |
| − | :Started a discussion here: [[user talk:Tjtrumpet2323#usage of var:latdate on Template:Coordinates.2FRegular.2FlatOnly.3F]] - a correct use of vardefine:* might fix this if it's not going to break anything else.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === LaTeX support ===
| |
| − | Does anyone have access to LocalSettings.php to set $wgUseTeX = true; so that formulas can be used? Or is there some other way to enable them that I'm not seeing? Thanks! -ralph
| |
| − | :Now enabled [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math Extension:Math] to meet this need.--[[User:DanQ|DanQ]] ([[User talk:DanQ|talk]])

| − | | |
| − | === scaled variant ===
| |
| − | Kids' Geohash? If they have a GPS enabled phone they can take part but the grid is too big so divide it into 32, 64 or even 128 (~850m x ~700m) for younger kids. Parental supervision recommended!
| |
| − | | |
| − | === cats to watch ===
| |
| − | anything in [[:Category:Needs attention]] might also be considered a kind of TO DO, especially [[:Category:Award template needed|Award template needed]] and [[:Category:Ribbon image needed|Ribbon image needed]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | === disappearing cat-to-expedition bug ===
| |
| − | [[2011-06-26_49_8]] has category [[:Category:Meetup in 49 8]] on it, but doesn't appear on that category page. Is something wrong with the graticule Template? (We had a problem with spaces between the colon and the category name at one time.) [[User:Jiml|Jiml]] 10:22, 27 June 2011 (EDT)
| |
| − | ::Not sure what you mean, [[2011-06-26 49 8]] is on the category page and that's the equivalent name with spaces (they are interchangable), am I missing something? - [[User:Mampfred|Mampfred]] 16:48, 27 June 2011 (EDT)
| |
| − | :::It seems to be showing up on the category page now. Not sure why the problem disappeared. [[User:Jiml|Jiml]] 22:04, 6 July 2011 (EDT)

| − | === has notifications ===
| |
| − | I need a GEOHASH ALARM. An email to be sent to me every time the selected point is close enough to me (like less than 5 miles, for example).
| |
| − | : Your wish is my command. Register an email address at http://xkcd.nathanwoodruff.com/Notify.aspx It will send you an email with a password. Log in and enter a Graticle Latitude and a graticule Longitude in the Grat Lat and Grat Lon boxes 33 -84 for Atlanta Georgia. If you want to enter the Global Hash, check the Global box, Then enter a Location Latitude and Longitude in the Location Lat and Location Lon. 33.75 -84.39 for the dead center of Atlanta Georgia. You will need to enter a maximum distance. If you enter 5 miles it will send an email if the days coordinates for the chosen graticule is less than 5 miles away. Click on the "Add" button. It will send you an email from now on every day after the Dow open is released. --[[User:NWoodruff|NWoodruff]] ([[User talk:NWoodruff|talk]]) 18:25, 13 November 2014 (EST)

| − | ::There is now help instructions for the Notify program available here [http://xkcd.nathanwoodruff.com/XKCD%20Notify%20Help%20Text.htm help text]
| |
| − | | |
| − | === gmaps versus osm ===
| |
| − | Switch the maps on the wiki to OpenStreetMap (perhaps through OpenLayers)? The Google Maps v1 API has sunsetted and now all maps show an ugly warning that make them basically unusable. One could update to v2, but with the same effort why not support such a quality community project (besides doing the [[OpenStreetMap achievement]] of course :)?
