To Do / future projects

  • edit Mobile view menu to be like Desktop view
  • explore improving editing in Mobile view
  • Editing with Google_Docs idea, and/or other alternate editors. (especially for mobile use)
  • formatting:  make links underlined, or more visible somehow. MediaWiki default is barely visible
  • need better YIMBYwiki backup strategy ASAP
  • is there any way to prevent the editor from constantly reinserting line breaks and spaces ("& n b s p;") and messing up the Main Page separate mobile section?  I amm finding that nearly every time I edit and save the page, I need to remove "< / d i v >" or add line break before "< d i v >" at start of mobile section, and remove a number of extraneous line breaks that have appeared in the "Outline of core articles" section in both Desktop and Mobile parts. wft? Tbh getting really tired of redoing formatting on nearly every single edit/save. -tm.
