Hitchwiki:Project cleanup

The idea

With the winter aproaching, and some people spending less time on the road, they may have some time for a bit of a hitchwiki cleanup. So if you want to spent a night (or week) fixing pages or categorising pages, here's what you can do:

Invalid templates

• As of 03-10-2024 there are 54 templates in Special:Wantedtemplates

Many of these are due to people putting the city name between brackets like: {{BigThumbCity}},thus creating a wanted template, and displaying it on the website as Template:BigThumbCity

1. Go to Special:WantedTemplates
2. Click the blue (1 Link) behind an invalid template the see where it is used.
3. Change the invalid template on that page. Use {{FULLPAGENAMEE}} for the name of article.

Uncategorised pages

• As of 03-10-2024 there are 711 pages in Special:UncategorizedPages

Many of these are empty pages with just a city name.

1. Add the {{Category|state}} tag or <{{Category|country}} tag.
2. Add the {{IsIn|state}} template or {{IsIn|country}} template. Check Template:IsIn to read how to use the IsIn template.
3. Add some basic information. "[CityX] is a city in [countryY]". Or some more..
4. If the page needs more info add the {{stub}}template.
