If you have a question about this list, please post it on the discussion page.

Projects on the Codex work in tandem with discussions on the wp-docs mailing list and the IRC #wordpress-docs channel.

The tasks are generally grouped into three areas:

  • [[WordPress:#Editing|Editing]]: Clean up and minor fixing
  • [[WordPress:#Revision|Revision]]: Revising and updating articles to reflect new information or changes in the software.
  • [[WordPress:#Contribution|Contribution]]: Contributing new articles to expand the WordPress Documentation.

Before becoming a member of the dedicated group of volunteer contributors to the WordPress Codex, we recommend that you review the following:

Also, the Codex hosts many pages dedicated to other activities with WordPress. To get involved in other ways, see WordPress:Contributing to WordPress.

Editing

If you would like to contribute to the Codex and WordPress Community with your editing skills, check the [[WordPress::Category:Copyedits|Needs Editing]] page for a list of pages on the Codex which require review and editing. Some of the editing may be minor, while other editing may require more familiarity with WordPress features and coding. Typically, the editing required involves:

  • Correcting spelling and grammar
  • Styling the page to meet the general look of the Codex's layout
  • Checking and testing demonstration code for validity

If there is a question about the material you are editing or checking, post the question in the Discussion area of the article so that others can help you make a decision about the material in question. Also, check in the Discussion area of the article to see if there has been activity about the issue you wish to edit.

Revision

When a page needs revising, typically there will be a note at the top or bottom of the page that states "Needs Revision", updating, [[WordPress::Category:Stubs|expansion]], or [[WordPress::Category:Merges|merging with another document]]. Revising and adding material to such documents is encouraged by those with famililarity on the subject matter, not just those with editing skills.

Contributions

Contributions to the WordPress Codex are constantly being sought as we expand the information and resources related to the use of WordPress. As a general guide, contributions to the WordPress Codex should be:

  • Related to WordPress usage and customization
  • Of interest to the majority of WordPress users
  • Be of an informative, educational manner
  • Meet the criteria established by the WordPress Codex documentation team
  • See the Contributing to the Codex guidelines and instructions before contributing.

Things to Do by Codex Section

The following are different sections within the Codex and a list of tasks needing work or activity.

General Codex Cleanup

There are a variety of things that need to be done on the WordPress Codex. If you would like to help with these general tasks, please sign up by adding four tildes ~ as your signature, which will create a link to your user page.

Theme Descriptions

Difficulty Level: EASY

There are two places in the Codex to find information about themes:

Someone needs to go through these two pages, rewrite/edit to make a decent overview that points to Theme Viewer.

This page should include at a minimum:

  • What is a theme?
  • Types of themes (i.e., One/two/three column theme)
  • Rules for WordPress’ themes - perhaps some basic rules from Theme Viewer.

Glossary - Terminology

Difficulty Level: EASY

There is a lot of terminology missing from the Glossary page, some of which can be found on the Glossary Discussion Page, as well as other commonly used words/terms, especially those that are unique to WordPress.

The Codex needs someone to update and maintain the glossary page by adding and defining words according to the established format which ensures that each definition within the glossary has a named anchor point allowing article writers to provide links to specific words/terms.

For instance:

A page on the Codex may link to the word "Blogosphere" in the glossary.
When someone clicks on the link, they will be taken directly to the word at URL: codex.wordpress.org/Glossary#Blogosphere
instead of URL: codex.wordpress.org/Glossary - (which would take them to the top of the glossary page).

This is an ongoing volunteer position, and would require a time commitment of one or two hours every week.

Mizzed Spellings

Difficulty Level: EASY

The MediaWiki software has a built-in function that checks for missed spellings and creates a category of articles with the most common misspellings at Missed Spellings.

While it also catches articles that feature foriegn languages, which can be ignored, and the raw text of the weekly WordPress Meetings. (Well, some of those people never learned to spell ;-) so these can be ignored), it has caught some in English that need to be checked.

Volunteer spelling inspectors are needed for this ongoing task.

Article Validation

Difficulty Level: INTERMEDIATE - Mediawiki Familiarity Required

There are known validation problems with the Codex in the sidebar and with the ads, but validation errors are found on many pages throughout the Codex and need to be fixed. If you have some familiarity with Mediawiki, but little experience with WordPress, this is an ideal contribution you can make to the WordPress Community by validating the Codex articles.

The most common error comes from lists. There must be a blank line before and after each list (not list item) in order for Mediawiki to generate a clean UL or OL list. Other common validation errors come from a lack of a closing tag when using bold or italic markup.

Links to Administration Panels Page

Difficulty Level: EASY - Familiarity with the Codex Necesssary

This is work that will help you learn more about editing and using the WordPress Codex, but it requires no special skills. We need to have any references to the Administration Panels in articles and documentation linked to the WordPress:Administration Panels page such as in this example: Administration > Manage > Posts

The technique means finding the Panel Titles and putting them into a link to that page or it's subcontents. Below is an example of what this actually looks like when viewed in the editing screen. To get the link to the subsection of the page, view the page and right click on the link from the table of contents or (in this example) from within the pink boxes listing the various sections of the Administration Panels, and copy the shortcut or link location. Paste it in the appropriate place and remove the http://codex.wordpress.org/ part of the link. 

[[WordPress:Administration Panels|Administration]] > 
[[WordPress:Administration_Panels#Manage_-_Change_your_content|Manage]] > 
[[WordPress:Administration_Panels#Posts|Posts]]

Here is another example.

To allow comments on a post already written, from the WordPress:Administration Panels choose Manage > Posts and choose Edit and change the setting for Allow Comments.
