Maintenance and To Do
Looking to volunteer in the Board Games corner of the CthulhuWiki? Here's what needs to be done!
1. Update Unreleased Board Games
If any of the games on the Unreleased Board Games page have been released:
- Update the game's page with as much information as possible
- Remove the 'Unreleased Board Games' category from the game's page
- Move the game information from the Unreleased Board Games page to the Board Games page, editing to account for different columns
2. Provide Missing Information
We're looking for official publisher information from the publisher's web site and the physical game or photos thereof. Much as I respect BoardGameGeek, they shouldn't be considered an official source of information.
If you own a physical copy of any of the board games on this wiki:
- Replace missing information (indicated by a '?') with the correct information. Use "None" if the game just doesn't have information for that field.
- Review existing information and correct as needed.
- Check the links section. There should be links (when available) for the game page on the publisher's site and on BoardGameGeek.
- If the description doesn't come from the back of the box or a CthulhuWiki contributor, please transcribe the description from the back of the box.
3. Add More Board Games
There are always more Cthulhu-themed board games - here's what to do with them:
Whether it's a new tentacle tamer or one that's been around for years and just not on CthulhuWiki, add a page for any board game or board game expansion (released or unreleased) using the Board Game Style Guide.
If it's a game that's already released, add it to the list on the Board Games page. If it's an expansion, increment the core game's expansion count by one.
If it's a game that's not released yet, add it to the list on the Unreleased Board Games page. Also add it to the Category:Unreleased Board Games.
If it's a game expansion, add a link to the expansion on the core game's page, in the Expansion(s) section. Put "(Unreleased)" after the link if appropriate.
Additionally, use the other board game subcategories as appropriate: Category:Miniatures Games, Category:Print-and-Play Board Games, Category:Print-on-Demand Board Games, Category:Solo Board Games (don't add expansions to Solo Board Games).
The following board games still need pages (well, check them first to see if they belong on the wiki at all). Remember to use the Board Game Style Guide.
A Study in Emerald (Boardgame 1st Edition)
A Study in Emerald (Boardgame 2nd Edition)
4. Miscellaneous Task List
If some kindly mod could delete the pages Arkham Horror (Chaosium), Arkham Horror (Fantasy Flight) (because I changed my mind about naming conventions), Arkham Horror: Curse of the Dark Pharoah (First Edition) (because I can't spell pharoah, er, pharaoh), and Creatures & Cultists (2st Edition) (because copy & paste has downsides) that would be great. And I apologize. All the rest of the work re: changing the names of those pages is done, I just can't delete them .
5. Not Unspeakable
Non-English editions of various games haven't been touched. (Except The Stars Are Right.)
6. More Tentacles
Know an interesting piece of trivia about a game? Have a link to a great review? See something that's just plain wrong? These pages are a community effort, make them better by contributing!
