This is a list of things that need doing.  Please feel free to add to it with your own suggestions. Some of these are just for people in charge of various things, and others anyone can do. If you feel like you want to contribute, please do so!

* Update the wiki Citizen's Portal, which hasn't been edited or updated for more than a decade.
* Update the wiki Manual of Style, which is also more than a decade old.
* Get TalossaWare available again by updating Printify vendors.  (Do we want a new service, or keep the easy one?)
* Update the main menu and government templates, since the government's been rearranged a bit.
* Post a reminder on the wiki and on the website interface about how it's illegal to delete any item public record, but also figure out if that law needs to be updated since it seems crazy.
* Figure out what to do about l'Chronica -- what versions get read and how much?
* Get a report on social media use... do we still need Twitter even now?  How can we simplify?
* Refresh the main page design.
* Create a policy for the wiki about political campaigning.

I'm somewhat ignorant on the "how" but would it be plausible to get assistance from an AI tool to read Witt and then suggest changes to some of these pages? (of course subject to actual editing by respirating mammals...)

Probably not. Chances are the changes suggested would be vague to the point of uselessness, or completely inappropriate (if the AI hallucinates, which it does in roughly 20% of all cases).
Editing posts is my thing. My bad.
Feel free to PM me if you have a Glheþ translation request!

That's a cool idea, but we can't give an AI a Witt account for technical reasons and privacy reasons, I'd think.  And I think Tafi is right about the quality of their writing... it hallucinates, and it usually ends up sounding like the same slop.

But I do think it might be interesting to try pointing an instance of Claude at the wiki and directing it to browse and look for things that seem like they should be updated.  It shouldn't do the updating itself, but such a list would be useful.  (Assuming it can actually competently do this, which... I don't know.)

I was actually thinking about this last night, and I think, whoever the next Seneschal is, they should reinstitute the bounty system offered by Sir Ian, years ago.  Improve the wiki a certain amount and you get to request a day of observance with photo/video proof of the Seneschal celebrating it.

Re: Talossaware, the website portion will need to be a collaboration between whoever ends up being Minister of Propaganda (which is responsible for the contents of the national website) and the Director of STUFF (myself).
