State of the Wiki - June 2018
Welcome to the June edition of the State of the Wiki. In this post, I will cover major events on the wiki from the end of May. I also will share what's to come here on South Park Archives for the rest of the month.

General News
  • The South Park Archives app is being phased out on iOS and soon on Android. It has been replaced by the FANDOM app. There's more information on that later in the post. We are working hard on getting everything fully set up for that app.


  • We are starting new projects soon, including a project to update old articles and clean up redundant files and legacy talk pages across the wiki.
  • Last November, we conducted a survey for South Park Archives and the Discord. The survey proved highly successful to us and allowed us to get lots of helpful data. Our plan this year is to conduct two of them, one in June/July and November. I'll be sharing more information about our newest one in a few weeks so be sure to stay tuned!

Upcoming Projects on South Park Archives
  • Season 21 Reassurance Project (January to February) - In this project, we'll address anything missed during Season 21 on the wiki. Like Songs, Characters and Locations/ Objects.
  • Wiki Article Updating and Cleanup (In Progress) - In this project, we'll do phase one of a long overdue project to update grammar in articles as well as the content of articles. Phase 1 will include updating the following Character articles: All Main, Major, Significant, 5-9th graders, School Faculty, 1st-3rd graders, and 4th graders (A through L). We'll also expand any stubs and clean up some other areas of the wiki.
  • Video Game Project (IN PROGRESS) - In this project, we'll work on adding new Fractured But Whole and Phone Destroyer content to the wiki, including missions, characters, locations and much more!
  • Wiki Article Updating and Cleanup Part 2 (Summer 2018 -- July/August) - This project will cover the rest of the 4th graders and we also will give every character article from A-Z a look to see if anything needs to be updated, renamed, corrected or changed. We also will clean up/ fact check/ correct trivia pages, old talk pages, categories and other areas of the wiki (mostly behind the scene lines of code, sandbox pages, templates and forum posts). We will also make new articles during this time period if deemed necessary.
  • Behind The Scenes content (Summer 2018 -- July/August) - In the project, we'll add behind the scenes content to trivia pages and episode galleries (some BTS content may also be added to episode pages. The project also gives us a chance to see if any episode pages or content in them needs to be updated like episode plots.)
  • Episode Scripts Project/ Tabbed Infobox Project (Mid July to Late August) - We will finish long-standing projects on the wiki, like the Episode Scripts Project and Tabbed Infobox Project.
  • Season 22 Preparation Project (Late August to September) - By then, we'll be working on preparing the wiki for the NEXT season of South Park.
  • Keep in mind some of these projects may not exactly meet their due dates head on, but that's the goal here. These projects will cover a massive amount of pages, and the work may take longer than expected. (For example, both phases of our Wiki Article Updating and Cleanup project will cover over 1,174 articles and that's just character articles alone) so some delays are expected. All of these projects WILL be completed by the start of Season 22, however.
  • Have any questions on the projects planned or want to help? Feel free to send me a message on My Wall.
That's a wrap!
