The contents on this page are used to routinely document and update critical pages on the Wiki which require maintenance. Maintenance on any page listed should be performed at least twice a year.
July/December

Category:Pages with template errors | - | July 1, 2020 | Ideally, this category and all its subcategories should be empty. Pages in these categories either use templates incorrectly, or else they point to an issue with the template itself or its underlying module(s). |
Monthly
Patrol Backlog
By the end of each month, Staff should ensure all edits made during that month are patrolled. A log can be viewed here.
Edits from more than 90 days from the date of viewing the log will not appear in the log.
Redundant Term Storage
Terms are sometimes stored multiple times on accident, and end up confusing the template. If these show up, we should resolve the issues by checking this query here.
Zelda Wiki:Sandbox
The Sandbox should be cleared at the start of every month.
Maintenance Categories
The following maintenance categories should be cleared on a regular basis. The respective category pages will contain more information on how to do so.
