Organize CentralNotice display
- Agree on a wording for the candidate banner
- Agree on a wording for the vote banner
- Notify translators
- Use Special:CentralNoticeBanners/edit/stewnoms and Special:CentralNoticeBanners/edit/stewvote. --Glaisher (talk) 16:00, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
- Create campaigns and add to calendar
- Update the javascript for the candidate banner
- Since this page is copied each year, I'll add the documentation here so that it can be modified easily. Look for MIN_REGISTRATION in the voting script and change the year (be sure not to change the timestamp format or it will break). If the cached eligibility result needs to be invalidated (say the criteria was wrong during the elections), COOKIE_KEY can be modified to invalidate cached eligibility result. I've also fixed a longstanding bug with the rewrite but still no reviews so I don't know whether a new bug has been introduced. :/ --Glaisher (talk) 15:57, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
- Review and publish the translations for the banners
Update the election counter
Make an edit notice for Template:Stewards/Elections 2016/Voters/Check to explain how the checking works: two years ago checks copied over stuff from the vote pages, moved users manually between the sections, etc.
- Like MediaWiki:Editnotice-10-Stewards-Elections 2015-Voters-Check? --Stryn (talk) 18:41, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
- Moved to MediaWiki:Editnotice-10-Stewards-Elections 2016-Voters-Check. Template protected to edit=autoconfirmed, move=sysop for one month. —MarcoAurelio 12:19, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
Translations Edit
Done. —MarcoAurelio 12:22, 7 February 2016 (UTC) |
