Welcome to the brand new Portal 2 Wiki!
Here is a list of happenings and events that are running inside or outside this wiki, update if other events happens (for an instance, new game released, broken things etc.)
== Articles to create and expand ==
*'''Games & Products''':
**[[Portal Pinball]]
***http://store.steampowered.com/app/368840/ - Steam

*** [https://web.archive.org/web/20190306043332/https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/dimensions##sp=101.81817626953125 Website]
*** The game, by default, comes with a Portal-themed level and has an extra optional level-pack. We could potentially expand the existing article to show the levels and mini-figs off, but that may be getting a little off the main topic of the wiki. Thoughts? [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 03:20, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
**[[Portal: The Uncooperative Cake Acquistion Game]] - A board game, but still a game nonetheless

** [[Portal: Still Alive]]
*** Bonus chambers walkthrough, images, videos, etc.
*** Development history?


==TODO==
* '''Thinking with Time Machine'''
As a new Wiki, we've got a lot of stuff to do before we can be "open".  Feel free to append items to this list.
** [[Thinking with Time Machine#Mechanics|Mechanics?]] Gameplay? [https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=thinking+with+time+machine+portal+2+mod Check here.]
*** Currently [[User:HansonKerman]] and [[User:Thedoczek]] is on the case.


===Logistics & Back-end===
*'''VR Games''':
==== Extensions to be installed ====
** [[Moondust]]
* <strike>[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ParserFunctions ParserFunctions]
*** VR tech demo for new Valve VR controllers.
: (Installed, just need to add {{code|require_once( "$IP/extensions/ParserFunctions/ParserFunctions.php" );}} to LocalSettings.php to turn it on.</strike>
** [[Portal Stories: VR]]
* <strike>[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree CategoryTree]</strike>
*** Completely slipped us by somehow.
* <strike>[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GroupPermissions GroupPermissions]</strike>
**[[The Lab]]
* * UNINSTALLED - Couldn't figure out how to save changes. Manually editing LocalSettings.php is adequate for us.
**[[Aperture Hand Lab]]
* <strike>[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikiEditor WikiEditor] replaces the old toolbox thing and is really gud (used on Wikipedia & written by some MW devs too) [[User:Seb|seb]] 15:19, 21 April 2011 (PDT)</strike> not working. Doesn't want to play nice. Will try again later. [[User:Seb|seb]] 04:41, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
*** {{Tooltip|Missing an ending,|the youtuber doesn't quite explore the game...}} please complete and fix formatting!
*'''Books''':
** [[Portal 2 The Official Guide]]

**[[Portal 2 - The Final Hours]]
*** The e-book available on Steam that covers Portal 2's dev.
** [[The Sacrifice]]
*** Collection of comics and short stories. Has L4D and TF2 stuff in it too. Only Portal content in it is Lab Rat though.
* '''Community content''':
** [[Gamma Energy]]
*** We know almost nothing about this mod!
** [[Blue Portals]]
** [[Portal: Project-Beta]]
** Expand [[Community content]]
* '''Walkthroughs/Test Chamber articles''':
** Co-op chambers
*** Walkthrough, images, videos, pictures etc, content following the [[Help:Style_guide/Test_chambers#Coverage|guidelines]]
** [[Portal Wiki:Captions]]
*** Add the missing captions


==== Config ====
== Templates ==
* <strike>Interwiki links for [http://half-life.wikia.com/ Combine Overwiki], TF Wiki, VDC.</strike>
* Watch [[Template:CommunityContentNav]] closely
*: Done. [[hl2:Combine Overwiki]], [[tf:TF2 Wiki]] and [[vdc:Valve Developer Community]] [[User:Seb|seb]] 04:41, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
** Preferably at least have a demo released or be approved on Steam Greenlight
* <strike>Set Vector to default skin &ndash; [[User:Seb|Seb]] 15:02, 21 April 2011 (PDT)</strike>


==== Everything else ====
*[[Template:Portal Test Chamber Template]]
* Maintenance Templates
*[[Template:Portal 2 Test Chamber Template]]
** Seriously need these to continue with Templates.
** A quick Test Chamber layout template for chamber articles.
*** Documentation and template for the test chamber infobox is [[Template:Chamber infobox|here]].


* Image licenses
'''See also:'''
** Refine the license list, making sure we only have what's absolutely necessary.
* [[Special:WantedPages]]
** Templates for each type of license.
* [[Special:WantedFiles]]
*** TFWiki is very object-orientated with its use of templates for this.
* [[Special:WantedTemplates]]
** A help page explaining what each type of license is and where it should be used.
 
* Main Page
** We need to decide what sort of content our Main Page will display.
*** Updates
*** Items
*** Characters
*** Did you know(?)
*** Featured Article (I'm just ripping off TFWiki here I know.)
 
* Non-spoilerish.
** Decide a way to document the game in a way which won't compromise any readers of whom haven't yet played.
*** Spoiler warnings at the top of each page?
**** Something like: This page documents an aspect of the game which is considered involved with the storyline.  Expect Spoilers."?
 
* <strike>LocalSettings.php (I think that's the right file) adjustments:
** Signature time to UTC:  <code>$wgLocaltimezone = 'UTC';</code>
** Interface time to UTC:  <code>$wgLocalTZoffset = null; </code>
** Enable <nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE}}</nowiki> to use any title: <code>$wgRestrictDisplayTitle = false;</code></strike>
 
* Change the Wiki's logo.  <strike>[[:File:Wiki-logo.png|Here's my proposal]], and [http://imgur.com/C7szK how it looks].</strike>
** [[User:Alex2539]] came up with a better logo.  It's overwritten my logo idea so the striked-out link above will still link to it.
** Edit the CSS and change the reference to headbg.jpg to link to [[:File:headbg.png|this PNG headbg.]]
 
* Implement usergroup permissions as Pilk drafted for the TF Wiki.  [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/User:Pilk/grouprights/new Link].
*: This is all good except the autoconfirmed limits. 200 edits & 10 days is way too high just to avoid captchas. I suggest 4 days & 10 edits (which is what Wikipedia has it at). [[User:Seb|seb]] 04:41, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 
*<strike>Implement the UTC time listed at the top of the page as is on the TF Wiki.</strike>
*:Turns out this was a custom JS of mine on the TF Wiki, however tis useful so I've implemented it here. [[User:RJackson|RJackson]] 09:03, 21 April 2011 (PDT)
 
* <strike>Change the site content license. CC-BY-NC-SA seems ok but I fear will be a little too complicated if Valve ever decides to pick us up again. It's probably really unlikely it'll be a problem but I think just CC-BY 3.0 would be better because it's simpler [[User:Seb|Seb]] 15:02, 21 April 2011 (PDT)</strike>
 
* Localization:
** YES
** Languages should be locked down to those supported by the game itself:
*: ar, cs, da, de, es, fi, fr, hu, it, ja, ko, nl, no, pl, pt, pt-br, ro, ru, sv, zh-hans, zh-hant
*: These are exactly the same ones we have on TF Wiki.
* [[User:Seb|seb]] 15:19, 21 April 2011 (PDT)
 
* <strike>Allow the steam:// protocol for external links.</strike>
 
===Content===
* Poot all kind of Portal content on dis wiki, doc.
 
* <strike>[[Template:Patch layout]] needs to be implemented (along with [[Template:Navbox with columns]].)<br />See [[April 21, 2011 Patch]].</strike>
 
* <strike>[[File:BLU Resurrection Associate Pin.png|17px]] We need an internet browser icon!</strike>
 
* The first letter of a user name can become lowercase through CSS.
 
* [[Template:See also]] needs to be finished.
 
* Links that have already been visited once should change to a different color, the purple that is in place now is too close to blue.
*: I kinda like the purple now, it's more suiting to the skin. [[User:Seb|seb]] 04:41, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 
* <strike>The front page has a <code>DISPLAYTITLE</code> that reads "Main Page," this should be removed.</strike>
*: Added hide rules to CSS. [[User:Seb|seb]] 04:41, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 
* Create the Help pages.  See [[Help:Contents]].
==== What navs do we need? ====
* Portal nav
* Portal 2 nav
* Test chamber nav
** Portal
** Portal 2 SP
** Portal 2 Co-op
* [[Template:CharactersNav|Character nav]]
* Item nav
** Hats
** In-game items that can be interacted with
*** Weighted Storage Cube
*** Those laser cube things
*** ...Well, just cubes I guess.
* Threats?
** Turrets
** Rocket turrets
** Lasers in P2 (I imagine they harm)
** Poison liquid floor stuff
 
==== Article infobox ====
*Needs to cover
**Characters
**Items in game
*:Could copypasta the OTFWiki one, hugely trimmed down of course. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 05:30, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
