|desc=Update 250 images that link to the older license to use the new version
There are many pages on the wiki currently that are missing categories, categories that are incorrect and also pages with old categories which do not line up with the new category tree. (You can find this new tree on the sidebar called: '''Wiki Index''')
|guidance=Image licenses can be used to categorise images, making it easier to maintain them. We have created a new license for Construction related images which has the option to specify their type to automatically categorise them. Images using the old license need to be switched to this new one. A list of images to be edited can be found at [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:POH_license]]. For each image:
|guidance=
To get started with this task, there are two paths but both need to be done.
# Edit the page and delete the old license ({{t|POH license}})
# '''Old categories''' - You can find this by going to the old category tree, [[Category:Gemini Station]], which needs to be deleted after its emptied. When it is empty, label the page with [[Template:Rfd]] so those with page deletion permissions can find it easily on the maintenance page. (Those with deletion permissions such as moderators and custodians can skip the labeling). Each page in the old categories need to be adjusted to the new category tree.
# Add the new license {{t|Construction license|Name|type=type of image}}
# '''Pages missing categories''' - Navigate to [[Special:UncategorizedPages]], [[Special:UncategorizedTemplates]] and [[Special:UncategorizedFiles]] to find the pages, templates and files that are missing categories and sort them using your best judgement with the new category tree. If you are confused or stuck, you can always ask for help.
# Replace ''name'' with the name of the page that the name is used on.
# Add the correct type for type= by specifying from the list below:

|title=Farming Plant Pages
|helper=[[User:Elessar2|Elessar2]]
|img=Mango detail.png
|task=Create or substantially improve the pages for 15 plants.
|desc=The wiki is currently missing pages for most plants (the scenery objects of Farming produce) and we are looking for help creating them! These pages can be created by anyone and don't require in game actions to create.
|guidance= These pages should be under the in game object name when possible, the table bellow contains the needed pages with the correct page names.
Page should include {{t|Infobox interactive scenery}} followed by a short text on which patch they grow in, how many seeds are needed, the level required and similar information. The id's as well as the in game name can be found in the [https://chisel.weirdgloop.org/gazproj/mrod MROD Database] search for plant using it's name or a part of the name, preceded and suceeded by a <code>/</code>. For example <code>/strawberry/</code>. The infobox versions should be split, as in the [[Strawberry plant|example]] into ''Seed'' (just been planted), ''Seed (w)'' (just planted and watered), ''Growing'' (growth stages), ''Growing (w)'' (watered), ''Diseased'', ''Dead'' and ''Grown'' (fully grown can be harvested). In the database these can be told appart by the actions listed, for all but seed and grown there should be one id per growth stage, minus the first (Seed) and final (grown) stage (for strawberry this means 5).
This should be followed by the {{t|Infobox Farming}} and then the growth stage image tables (both of which can be copied from the seed page). When copying the infobox please ensure that the <code><nowiki>|grown =</nowiki></code> parameter contains the correct link (the page you are creating) and the displayed text matches the in game name (this applies to the box on the seed page as well). Remeber to change the <code><nowiki>|name=</nowiki></code> parameter on the new page to match the in game name of the plant.
The bottom of the page should have the {{t|Seeds}} template, which is the navigation box.
'''See [[Strawberry plant]] for an example page.'''
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
<div>These are the pages needing creation. Feel free to strikethrough when a page has been done:</div>
|task=Update images of the growth stages for 5 different plants
|desc=Our images of plant growth stages are severely outdated. We are looking for players with a range of [[Farming]] levels who can capture images as their plants progress through different [[Farming#Growth cycles|growth cycles]].
|guidance=[[:Category:Farming stage images]] contains all the images that we currently have - many plants have received graphical updates and all Farming patches were updated a while ago so nearly all the images need to be taken again. Simply put the plant into the patch and capture a new image each time that its appearance changes.
Some changes can be very small, so its important to capture images at the same patch and to use the same angle to show the differences between stages clearly. An example of good images can be found on the [[money tree]] page; and there is a guide on how to capture high quality images [[RuneScape:Editing/Taking images|here]].
Waiting for plants to grow may take some time but you may be able to use [[Rapid Growth]] or [[ultra-growth potion]]s to skip through some stages.
The following plants' images have been completed:
<div style="columns: 2;">
* [[Stinkshroom spore]]
* [[Tombshroom spore]]

|title=Image transparency
|helper=[[User:Merds|Merds]]
|img=Translucency icon.png
|task=Add transparency or translucency to 30 images.
|desc=In order to have the highest quality images possible on the wiki many of them need to have the background removed and we need your help.
</br>
'''It is strongly recommended to NOT use the magic wand tool as it will result in a poor transparency.'''
|guidance=We pride ourselves on having excellent quality images on the wiki. One of the things we do to achieve that is to remove distracting backgrounds from images, which we call adding transparency (or translucency for images that have particles or bloom effects). There are always plenty of images which require transparency or translucency to be added to them - they can be found in [[:Category:Images needing transparency]] and [[:Category:Images needing translucency]].
Transparency can be quite tricky to do at first, but we have a step-by-step guide on how to add it [[RuneScape:Editing/Image transparency|here]]. If you are not familiar with adding transparency to images, we recommend that you get feedback from other editors on your first attempts. It can take a few tries to edit transparency well. Please keep in mind that transparency must be done to a certain standard in order to qualify for this project. Some info on translucency can be found [[RuneScape:Images and media policy#Particle transparency and translucency|here]].

Missions
Creating Mission Infoboxes for every mission on Gemini Station.
In order to finish our Mission Project we need to create infoboxes for every mission on Gemini Station. This requires super amount of time to put it together and also get it sorted.
Task co-ordinator:Banri Need help, or want to claim your reward? Let us know in our Discord server.
This is an ongoing project to add every single mission available to the wiki. Story, General Missions, Trade Missions, Misc Missions...anything that is considered a mission in Gemini Station needs to be added. This also included all information for Encounters as well.
Missions Information need to be placed on the Missions page.
Encounter Information needs to be placed on the Encounters page.

How to get started?
Basically, there are several things that are needed to complete a mission card for the wiki:
Name of the Mission
Mission ID
Mission Description
Mission Character/Static Image (If present)
Condition of the Mission (Objective)
Mission Details (Difficulty, Ship Type, Steps)
Rewards (Exact Info)
Step Description (Info that is given after each step when viewing the mission details)
This is all required when putting a Mission Card together.
How to make a Mission Card?
Refer to Template:Event for more details on how to make a Mission Card. Banri has all the raw data so just ask for the data to start making infoboxes. You will need to use your personal sandbox to create the infoboxes first before actually submitting them to the main page.
Current Priorities
Priorities are in order from first to last what is needed the most.
There are many pages on the wiki currently that are missing categories, categories that are incorrect and also pages with old categories which do not line up with the new category tree. (You can find this new tree on the sidebar called: Wiki Index)
