Articles that require an extensive cleanup should be submitted to the list below with details. See Wikipedia:Cleanup process for more information.

Basically, if the article isn't quite a stub, but it is in need of more content, a re-wording, or even just a structural adjustment, it should be placed here. Those NSwikians who prefer to be editors can then go through this list and make their contributions to those pages that are most in need of help. This should not be a list of stubs. See also, What to contribute.

Note that articles in the general namespace should be put here, not meta pages.

Categories for cleanup

• The entire Regions category needs to be sorted through with most being put in Historic Regions

For a review of the situation regarding articles in Category:Sober Thought, please see the relevant section on that user's talk page. The initial concerns can now be found on category talk page. Gruen2alk 19:04, 29 November 2005 (GMT)

Articles for cleanup

• Imperial Sino-Japanese Pan-Asian Peopleès Liberation Military Samurai Ninja Shinobi Armed Forces is pretty much a blurb. I tried to fix it up some but ... still bad. --Knootoss 07:29, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
• Celsan Falina - about Astholm's motor industry, could do with more cleanup. --Astholm 08:01, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
• Holy Vatican See - someone jammed the flag and replaced it with the picture of a busy road.

-replaced with Vatican City flag. Free Outer Eugenia 12:45, 16 April 2007 (GMT)

• Violet - completely written in first person, very informal, needs to be cleaned up. -- Ceorant 16:25, 6 November 2005 (GMT)
  • Discussion moved to Talk:Violet.
  • This is becoming a big conversation, that's dwarfing the Cleanup page, so I'm moving the comments here over to the talk page, so we can reach a consenus. Hope this makes sense. Gruen2alk 10:12, 17 November 2005 (GMT)
• Fourth Edolian War - I started it but it needs to be finished by people who were more involved. Knoot 14:49, 3 Oct 2004 (GMT)
• Magic (Khrrck) needs some rewriting cleanup; was written a long time ago. I may do some of it myself, but if anyone's interested feel free. --Khrrck
  • 02:40, 11 Nov 2004 (GMT) I dont think it needs anything. It doesnt seem passive or anything. Kerbistan.
  • Still needs fixing. Excellent ideas, but I can't stand to edit it myself - if anyone wanted to volunteer I'd be very, very grateful. Mostly one-sentence-paragraph and punctuation problems, but fix it up as you see fit. Khrrck 00:10, 12 November 2006 (GMT)
• Despite the recommendation to avoid making this a "list of stubs", I'm including a link to a newly created category of real world stubs, all of which are in dire need of some additional NS based content. [[User:Frisbeeteria|
• Type 97 needs it's infobox fixed, and I am not quite sure how. --Knootoss 10:36, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Wow, that's a horribly complicated infobox. It's possible there's something in there which isn't compatible with the version of the wiki software that NSwiki is currently using, or maybe a missing set of brackets messing the whole thing up. Either way, I'm damned if I can see what it is! I thought it might've been where it was using "#if" statements (which don't work on here, apparently), but changing them to "#Qif" hasn't worked. I've noticed you've used some conversion templates and Wikipedia link templates in your infobox, but removing them didn't work neither. I think the best thing to do for now would be to use a stand-alone table like the ones found at Category:Tanks. Maybe we can produce a much simpler version of this template at a later date. Bettia (talk) 12:26, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Fixed the infobox, at least. I basically had to recreate the thing from scratch, using the infobox from Brachyuria's Geraldric MBT as a base. I also deleted a lot of what I consider extraneous Wikipedia links - years do not need links to their Wikipedia page, nor do we need links for "tank gun" and so on. Someone still needs to go in and fix the references. I kinda-sorta fixed two, then figured there's got to be a better way to do endnotes than that. But I don't know what it is.

• Normannarland: I have a little technical problem. I am trying to present this country, but the map and the flag only turns up as links, so I must have done something wrong! --An eccentric Norwegian 19:37, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
  • Don't link to the image page; link to the URL, which you can access by visiting the image page then right-clicking the image. I sorted it with image templates, so the images could be scaled down. --Kenny 70.181.166.87 20:24, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
    • Thanks! --An eccentric Norwegian 21:25, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

• Iievius has been written out and is pretty much complete, but I'm not quite sure how often and what should be linked within the article. Could a person go over it?
