• /Contributions ({{ql|Special:RecentChangesLinked/User:Waldyrious/Contributions|qs=hidemyself=1|watchlist}})
• Wikipedia:WikiProject Cape Verde/Watchlist

• Wikipedia:WikiProject Cape Verde
• Add content to (or create) articles in the :category:American politicians of Cape Verdean descent from material stored in my computer (see also this)
• Create a dedicated importance scale, like WP Saints', and link Template:WikiProject Cape Verde to it rather than to Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Release Version Criteria#Importance of topic as currently it does. Maybe a custom one for the Quality scale too.
• Recheck the stats table to make sure the numbers are correct. Might need to tweak the banner template's categorization scheme.
• Add more entries to Cape Verde#International recognition from Lists of countries and territories and List of international rankings. See also: International rankings of Hong Kong
• Add a [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/massviews/?platform=all-access&agent=user&source=category&range=latest-20&subjectpage=1&subcategories=0&sort=views&direction=1&view=list&target=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:WikiProject_Cape_Verde_articles MassViews traffic report] to the WikiProject page, and maybe use that data to inform/validate against/help fill the importance ratings.
• bring data from [http://ufbir.ifas.ufl.edu The University of Florida Book of Insect Records] (see also [http://www.earthlife.net/insects/six.html]). details at /UFBIR
• Move useful/encyclopedic content from [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Exploding_head&oldid=176513080 Exploding head] to the Scanners article and/or back to the disambig page.
• Properly format the articles titled after each of the Nereids.
• Try to illustrate Mammal articles without images with images from http://animalphotos.info
• Rewrite Temporal paradox
• Albert Hammond's "I'm a Train" seems to have some similarity to the Hawaiian War Chant at least as performed by Timon and Pumbaa. Check this and make links if appropriate.
• Write essay Wikipedia:Observer effect (see WT:OR; {{tl|Neologism}}; Observer effect (physics); Observer effect (information technology); Wikiality; truthiness; History is written by the victors; Truth by consensus; Wikipedia:Truth; Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth; Wikipedia:The Truth; WP:CIRCULAR; Circular reporting)
• fix [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:%3F&limit=500&hideredirs=1&hidetrans=&hidelinks=1 uses] of {{tl|?}} so that it can be used as a regular table cell template
• Can {{tl|Infobox OS}} be recoded as a specialized {{tl|Infobox software}}?
• Move some entries from Wikipedia:Userboxes/Wikipedia/Miscellaneous to more specific pages, and organize the rest. See also Wikipedia:Userboxes/Wikipedia/Views and affiliations vs. Wikipedia:Userboxes/Wikipedia/Views vs. Wikipedia:Userboxes/Wikipedia/Editing philosophy.
• Natalie Dylan AfD (see {{ql|User talk:Spartaz|qs=oldid=373404897#Natalie_Dylan_AfD}} and User talk:Milowent)
• {{tl|IPAc-en}} (see [http://www.reddit.com/r/wikipedia/comments/cxq4i/who_here_actually_contributes_to_wikipedia/c0w2zxj], also Wikipedia:IPA for Spanish)
• Standardize pages for individual days, see User:Waldyrious/16 February 1986
• {{ql|qs=oldid=468166861#map2_in_infobox_country||map2 in infobox country}}
• Template:Openness (see Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2012 January 6#Template:Openness)
• Apply the table/matrix approach to ccTLDs^{[​list/exceptions]} and ISO 639-1
• Help development and simplification (or at least code readability) of {{tl|charmap}}. Examples of target usage: Ç#Computer, Â#Character mappings, É#Character mappings, Yer#Computing codes, A#Computing codes.
• Make a calendar filled with International observance#Days and possibly List of commemorative days (if they're not specific to a nation or subset thereof), using {{tl|calendar}}

• :Category:Dead-end pages vs. Can We Link It?
• Disambiguation
• Disambiguation pages with links vs. dab fixers / Suggestions for disambiguation repair
• {{tl|Lookfrom}} (prefixindex) and {{tl|intitle}} (intitle search)
• {{tl|refer}}
• Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages aren't articles
• :Category:Orphaned articles and Special:Lonelypages
• {{ql|Special:Categories|qs=offset=Cape_Verde&limit=100|Categories starting at "Cape Verde"}}. Look for red links and fix them.

• {{/admintask|Wikipedia fully protected edit requests|edit requests}} on protected pages
• {{/admintask|Candidates for history merging|history merges}} (howto)
• Unprotection requests

:see :Category:Wikipedia requests related to admins and :Category:Request templates

: todo: make templates below add specific categories, so that backlog can be counted

• {{/admintask|Candidates for speedy deletion as nonsense pages|G1-nonsense}}
• {{/admintask|Candidates for speedy deletion as test pages|G2-test pages}}
• {{/admintask|Candidates for technical speedy deletion|G6-technical cleanup/housekeeping}} ({{ql|Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Db-g6|qs=hidelinks=1&hideredirs=1|db-g6}} | {{ql|Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Db-move|qs=hidelinks=1&hideredirs=1|db-move}} | {{ql|Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Db-disambig|qs=hidelinks=1&hideredirs=1|db-disambig}} | {{ql|Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Db-copypaste|qs=hidelinks=1&hideredirs=1|db-copypaste}})

• {{ql|Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Db-f10|qs=hidelinks=1&hideredirs=1|F10-bad format}}
• {{/admintask|Candidates for speedy deletion by user|U1-user request}}

• Duplicate Wikipedia files on Wikimedia Commons (probably {{tl|db-f8}} should be merged into {{tl|Now Commons}}):
• with the same name, from:
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-3 days}}|three days ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-2 days}}|two days ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-1 day}} |one day ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y }} |today}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with the same name on Wikimedia Commons as of unknown date|unknown date}}
• with a different name, from:
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-3 days}}|three days ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-2 days}}|two days ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y |-1 day}} |one day ago}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of {{#time: j F Y }} |today}}
• {{/admintask|type=files|Wikipedia files with a different name on Wikimedia Commons as of unknown date|unknown date}}
• Duplicate Wikipedia files on Wikipedia (the two templates / categories below should probably be merged):
• {{/admintask|type=files|Candidates for speedy deletion as redundant files|F1-dupes}} (added by {{tl|db-f1}})
• {{/admintask|type=files|Duplicate Wikipedia files}} (added by {{tl|duplicate}})
• {{/admintask|type=files|Candidates for speedy deletion as missing files|F2-corrupt files}}

• {{tl|Lifetime}} — template to be substituted as {{subst:Lifetime|year of birth|year of death|sort key}}, to automatically generate "XXXX births" and "XXXX deaths" categories (and optionally DEFAULTSORT) for new articles about people
• Wikipedia uses the logical quotation style (thank god!)
• Dates (January 01, {{CURRENTYEAR}} → 01 January {{CURRENTYEAR}}): find ([a-zA-Z]+) (\d\d?), (19|20)(\d\d), replace $2 $1 $3$4
• Notes and references:
• Help:Footnotes#List-defined references & Help:List-defined references (references defined in a list at the end of the page, rather than inline)
• WP:REFNEST (nesting references, e.g. a footnote with a reference of its own).
• Help:Shortened footnotes (named references with split sections for the short notes and the full references)
• {{tlx|rp|12,34}} —Lorem ipsum^[1]{{rp|12,34}}— and {{tlx|rp|at{{=}}12:34}} —Lorem ipsum^[1]{{rp|at=12:34}}— for appending page numbers, timestamps, etc. to individual instances of an existing general reference (which can then be reused)
• meta:WMDE Technical Wishes/Book referencing does the same but natively
• [http://www.crossref.org/guestquery/ retrieve DOI of a document] given its title and other data
• Several tools for references and external links
• References and punctuation: WP:REFPUNCT and WP:PAIC

• {{tl|Plain image with caption}}

• {{tlx|div col|colwidth{{=}}10em|cols{{=}}3}} ... {{tlx|div col end}}
• {{tl|ql}} & {{tl|diff2}}
• Check out the age counter at User:Wikitanvir/userboxes (and also the user age userbox)
• {{tl|flatlist}}
• auto-updating timelines! See mw:Extension:EasyTimeline#Using the current date and {{tl|Timeline openSUSE}} for an example.
• test sorting order of various characters: Help:Sorting#Alphabetic sorting order
• IMO WP:CLUE should actually point to Wikipedia:WikiProject on Adminship/Goals of the adminship process#Discernment, possibly also linking to Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship, Wikipedia:Miniguide to requests for adminship, Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and Wikipedia:Administrators#Expectations of adminship (as listed on this discussion)
• Javascript Wiki Browser (JWB)
• Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Order of article elements (e.g. section headings, templates...)
• Quick cheatsheet: "See also" > "Notes and references" (one or two sections) > "Further reading" > "External links" > templates (navboxes, commonscat, etc.)
• For revision history search, an alternative to WikiBlame is [https://osm.malevil.cc/wikirever/ WikiRever] ([https://osm.malevil.cc/wikirever/index.php?wikilink=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FCape_Verde&searchString=International+recognition example])
• {{tl|Annotated link}} → produces a link to an article followed by its short description; very useful for "See also" sections

• 212.13.33.178: Some of these are mine -- the IP's from where I currently live, anyway (Viana do Castelo, Portugal): [http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/city.ch?ip=212.13.33.178]. I am not sure all of them are mine, though. The ones about Utopia certainly are. I definitely hope the others are not =P. But the only one I can firmly assure wasnt me, is the first one, since I wasn't in Viana do Castelo prior to September 2004.
• 194.79.75.114: I didnt realise I wasnt logged in until I had made several edits. The contributions of that IP are mine or from someone at my university (I think most of them are mine but I haven't checked them all). See also [http://wikiscanner.virgil.gr/f.php?ip1=194.79.75.0-255 wikiscanner's entry] on this IP.

• 82.155.122.172 (as of today, 11 dec 2008, a single edit -- the system somehow logged me off moments before I clicked the save button)

• 85.244.8.13 on 6 May 2009. I was too lazy to login.

• 188.82.193.82, 7 April 2011. Same as above.

• 188.82.108.42, 16 April 2011

• Contributions/188.82.72.82, 8 February 2014. Using the Android mobile app, apparently my login had expired or something, but the interface still showed me as logged in. After a log-out/log-in, {{ql|Special:Contributions/Waldyrious|qs=offset=20150208052500&limit=1|it worked properly}}.
