+==My to-do list==
-[https://www.bilibili.com/video/av75169038 Speedrun of iQue's localization of ''Paper Mario''], may be useful to add Simplified Chinese entries in the "Names in other languages" sections.
+. Change "he or she" (referring to the player) to "they", "him or her" to "them", etc., except in cited text.
-[https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1kA411b7Bf iQue's localization of ''M&L Superstar Saga'']. Note that this is not the popular fan translation.
+. Items like [[Roast Whacka Bump]] lack the in-game description. Also many ''Super Paper Mario'' characters lack Tippi's tattles.
-'''April 6, 2018''': Currently I'm adding the Simplified Chinese names of [[List of WarioWare: Touched! microgames|''WarioWare: Touched!'' microgames]] to the wiki. These names come from [[iQue]]'s localization of ''[[WarioWare: Touched!]]''. ['''April 15, 2018''': hard disk fell to the ground while running at high speed, causing damage to all data. As such I no longer have iQue's version of the game.]
+More importantly, some infoboxes fail to mention from which game the in-game description comes:
+<pre>
+Ultra Stone
+|description=''"A stone. Use it to ultra-rank one of your party members."'' <!--this quotation is from paper mario-->
+</pre>
+. For pages like [[List of implied characters]], see what pages redirect to them. The target of redirects are typically "List of implied characters#XXX". Check whether this works (i.e. whether XXX actually appears as a section title).
+. On [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario]], consolidate the quotations of the shop runners (and maybe of a few other characters whose quotes are not completely listed).
+. Download all the navtemplates and write a script to check article->nav and nav->article
+. Update [[List of characters]] (and co) to include the latest created ''Paper Mario'' and ''SPM'' characters.
+. <s>Give {{tem|footnote}} the ability to associate one footnote to several footnote tags, and use the template on [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario]].</s> MediaWiki references are better as they support mouse hover.
+. [[List of tattles in Super Paper Mario]] -- copy the tattles to the articles for individual characters
+==Minor NPC project==
+The page [[List of minor NPCs in Paper Mario]] is largely finished.
+* The quotes come from the [http://www.romhacking.net/community/3078/ Paper Mario Text Dump] by Rew. Some of them have been confirmed by actually playing the game, but the others (such as the Toad Town ones) have not.
+* The compilation of this article led to the discovery of a few new named NPCs (the [[Rangers]] and the [[Great Gossip Trio]]) as well as new facts about existing named NPCs.
+* I'm not satisfied with the layout of the page as it currently stands, but I don't know how to improve it with my crude HTML/CSS skills.
