* Convince Weird Al to do a Lord of the Rings parody. (This is more of a reminder to check for a response as I just sent an email to him)
* '''See''' [[Tolkien Gateway:Projects]]
* Scene by scene summary of [[The Lord of the Rings]].
* Scene by scene analysis of PJ's films, Bakshi's film, and Rankin/Bass films, as well as the books.
* Finish uploading Nasmith images. Still need to do his Hobbit, FotR, TTT, and RotK sketch sections. (Trying not to think about Howe, Lee, Hildebrandt, etc, etc, etc)
* Go through all the Lord of the Rings news websites and gather any news of events and put them into articles.
* Create a geographical navigation system. For instance [[Harondor]] would have a compass, a visitor could click the North symbol to be directed to [[Lebennin]], they could click the West symbol to be directed to [[Bay of Belfalas]], etc. The system would have tiers. You could navigate continents such as [[Middle-earth]], [[Numenor]], etc. then there would be a level of navigation for major regions like [[Gondor]] and [[Eriador]], then another level for cities.
* A [[Fellowship of the Ring]] route which allows one to follow the region articles linearlly just as the Fellowship of the Ring did.
* Create an article for ''every'' year of every [[Ages|Age]] on [[Arda]], as well as for every year in the real world, starting from at least [[J.R.R. Tolkien]]'s birth.
* Decide on a slogan for [http://tolkiennews.net TolkienNews.net]. And maybe a new title? ''Tolkien Times''?
* Fix any broken links
** Down to around 2,000 [[Special:Wantedpages|wanted pages]]
* Add any books relating written by [[J.R.R. Tolkien|Tolkien]] or about his works.
* Add any games relating to [[Middle-earth]] and [[Arda]].
** Naming standard?
* Add more descriptions and standardize all the encyclopedia entries
* Add templates to all the pages
* Add quotes and references to back up facts
* Add any song or band relating to Tolkien and his works.
* Upload at least one image per article
* Write a halfway readable [[Help:Contents|Help]] section.
* Stream mp3s of Tolkien reading the one ring poem for instance.
* Code a better style to hide the generic wiki format
** I've added a couple of skins but still not happy with any of them
* Add how to pronounce articles
** Uploaded all of [[User:Ardamir|Ardamir]]'s which covered a few hundred pronunciations.
* Add links to forum threads
* Elvish names?
* Migrate from mod_rewrite to alias and fix & problem (Ex: Allen & Unwin)
* Calendars which are merely variants should be merged.
* Double check Calendars published by Minotauro and are Italian (should be Spanish?)
* Install [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Frantik/Winter Winter extension] and configure journals to display previous/next issues dynamically
* Get more visitors!
