==5 mins tasks list too long == The 5 min task list is so long that it's difficult to edit. Some things in there have been done by moving to the bottom is no easy task. Can subheadings be added eg for year/month then we only need edit a small part? Not having the name of suggested pages to edit means it harder to work out which to look for. Linking to the pages to edit before the link itself would be so much better. The person requesting would be helpful too eg * [[MAGENTA trisl]] [[Esther Crawley]] http://www.example.com [[User:Notjusttired]] [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 10:58, 16 February 2019 (EST) :Sounds like a good idea, especially including the person requesting and the month/year requested. That way, if anyone has a question about the task, they have someone to ask, and they know which tasks have been waiting longer. I'll start doing that. :[[User:Pyrrhus|Pyrrhus]] ([[User talk:Pyrrhus|talk]]) 21:02, 16 February 2019 (EST) ::I really agree that having the requests described and signed would help a lot. In most cases, I can't actually tell what the request is, or I would have done it myself. (I also suspect that in many cases, they are more than five-minute tasks, since just reading a linked study can take at least that long.) ::I also think we don't need to keep a list of the five-minute tasks completed. All the changes are logged both when deleted from this list and added to the relevant page: manually making another record seems like needless work to me. Does anyone object if I just delete the "completed" list and then henceforth we just delete requests as we finish them? [[User:Canele|Canele]] ([[User talk:Canele|talk]]) 22:34, 16 February 2019 (EST) :::In absence of objection, I went ahead and removed the completed (pre-2019) list to start to try to make this page a little less unwieldy. Please don't worry, anyone who disagrees can find the entire text [https://www.me-pedia.org/index.php?title=MEpedia_suggestions&type=revision&diff=51175&oldid=50136 here] and restore it. And possibly the best would be if we set up an archive page. However, it does make me wonder whether this record is actually being used for anything, or if keeping it just adds extra work for no reason? In theory I can see why it'd be good to have a log of what's checked off as "done" so that someone else could go back and double-check a suggestion was in fact fully/properly implemented...but is anyone actually doing that? Right now we're way, way backlogged just making proposed changes at all; I tend to think the best is if we just delete them as we do them individually, and if someone wants to request something further be done with related material, they can always make another suggestion. Any objections if I revise the instructions accordingly? (And of course, individual users can manage their [[:Category:User to-dos|personal to-do lists]] however they want; I understand the motivation to keep a list of what you've accomplished!)
