Future Goals[edit | edit source]
- Adding photos to the Washing page
- Clean up discussion pages that have whole drafts on them, instead of discussions
- Talk:BPG Watermarks Denise Stockman said she worked on this page and would like someone else to read it over before publishing it
- Talk:BPG Exhibition, Supports, and Transport
- Talk:BPG Mold ?
- Talk:BPG Filling of Losses
- Talk:BPG Drying and Flattening - there is a sentence that says to email suggestions to the bpg coordinator email, delete that?
Things to fix[edit | edit source]
- Remove most use of bolding, including in headings which then show in the table of contents
- Weird spaces here and there
- "catalog" mentions
- Haven't seen any of those recently
- Italicized or bulleted annotations of references
- I feel like I might want the Talk pages to have the portal on them, so I can navigate easier between them, but then maybe it makes it less obvious that you are on a talk page? what does wikipedia do?
