Special:Contributions/Notafly—Lots of cut&paste unformatted and unsourced; need to go through and do something about these.
Reboot WS:IGD? Or create something new? Are there enough interested people to warrant a separate venue?
Modernise The Ballad of Reading Gaol
Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:TOCright is a good list of works needing to be modernised and scan-backed
scan back The School for Scandal
convert Template:Backlog to {{cmbox}}
File:Electra of Euripides (Murray) Chart I.png and File:Electra of Euripides (Murray) Chart II.png should be converted to {{tree chart}}

File:Examples of indicators for assessing the critical nature of the financial system’s parts.jpg—convert to table markup
File:FFC24.djvu should be used to scan-back this page, if it is possible to do so (there were apparently concerns raised over the feasibility of using the file, due to its poor quality);
Index:Grimm's Household Tales, vol.1.djvu (+vol. 2) needs to be completed
The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night
Index:Last Will and Testament of Cecil Rhodes.djvu—Sigh, it's easy to promise completion in a deletion discussion…

Experimental researches in electricity
A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism—migrate to scan, fix up monster toc; empty out Category:A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism
Attack Special:PagesWithoutScans in some structured way. Add a maint cat so we can progress them stage by stage? No scan -> ext scan linked -> ssl -> tagged with migrate to -> matched and split -> proofread? Too many to do solo so need to engage community on the project.
Index:With Lawrence in Arabia (1924).djvu (to proofread)
9009 needs match and split
Figure out the heck is going on with Author:Peter John Bolton. Have these been previously published, or are they original compilations?
Follow up on The Writings of Carl Schurz (vs. Speeches, correspondence and political papers of Carl Schurz) in light of WS:PD discussion. Also apparently affects Summer on the Lakes in some way.
Look into {{second-hand}} and {{Project Gutenberg}} and make them more usable (in mainspace, in particular).
Figure out what to do about File:Weasel 1.ogg, File:Weasel 2a.ogg, File:Weasel 2b.ogg, File:Weasel 3a.ogg, and their associated transcripts. They are missing copyright / licensing information, are not previously published (allegedly uploaded by someone on the mission, so neutrality was never in the cards), are edited (to avoid embarrassing the persons featured engaging in "locker room talk"), of unknown provenance (where the heck did these radio/cockpit recordings end up in the hands of the uploader?), and the transcriptions are heavily annotated.
The Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World (Creasy)—Move dab to main title, consolidate volumes, fix page names, split into chapter subpages
Nice overview of Howard copyright. Need to find some better place than here to stash it for future reference since we have about a million texts from Howard.
- Also: this
- And: this
Figure out a good way to do the side-by-side on The Apocryphal New Testament (1924)/Passion Gospels/The Gospel of Nicodemus, probably using a full-bleed Grid layout (which, yes, will require rewriting pagenumbers.js, sigh)
Match&Split A Latin Dictionary?
Index:The Duke Decides (1904).djvu
Check back in on Translation:On the Self-governing Special Administrative Territory of Transcarpathia, 1992 (draft), cf. WS:PD#Undelete The Law of Ukraine: On the Self-governing Special Administrative Territory of Transcarpathia, 1992 (draft)
All categorized pages with no lowercase letters in title, excluding court citation redirects—Crap titles that need to be fixed (and probably some of it is crap content too)
diff: How can Structured Data on Commons, Wikidata, and Wikisource walk hand in hand?
