Outstanding Tasks for Categorization

  • Categorize uncategorized pages into at least one of the sub-subcategories of the Category:P2P Foundation Knowledge Commons
  • Categorize pages with a country category. See Category:World for examples
  • Move Category:Individuals pages to Category:Bios by applying the right category. Then move the page itself by renaming it with Firstname Lastname (instead of last first).
    • Do a search and merge duplicates along the way.
  • Use a bot to change Peerproduction to Peer Production and the like throughout the site.
