If you are looking into creating or modifying articles the tracking categories in [[BattleTechWiki:Project Cleanup]] will be your best bet. However if you are looking to dive right into editorial maintenance tasks they include:

===Extensions that are unmaintained and may need to be replaced===
 +
* [[mw:Extension:SpecialUserScore]] --> [[mw:Extension:Contribution Scores]]

* [[mw:Extension:SphinxSearch]] --> [[mw:Extension:GoogleSiteSearch]] or [[mw:Extension:CirrusSearch]]
 +
* [[mw:Extension:DynamicPageList (third-party)]] --> [[mw:Extension:DynamicPageList3]] (or uninstall it as [[mw:Extension:Semantic MediaWiki]] does much the same thing though not as simply)
 +
* [[mw:Extension:WikiArticleFeeds]] --> Remove as RSS feeds have been part of Mediawiki installs since 1.23+
 +
===Extensions that may require updates===

===Extensions that may need additional configuration===
 +
* [[mw:Extension:ContactPage]] - It is suppose to generate [[Special:Contact]], however it seems to have not been working for sometime.
 +
* [[mw:Extension:Semantic Glossary]] - Our install doesn't appear to have to have the type of properties it's suppose to use configured.
 +
* [[mw:Extension:Lingo]] - It doesn't seem that it's [[Terminology|default page to use]] is working correctly, and it would additional configuration with [[mw:Extension:Semantic Glossary]].
 +
* [[mw:Extension:Interwiki]] - Needs more interwiki links to work as seen on [[Special:Interwiki]].
 +
* [[mw:Extension:TitleBlacklist]] - Needs to have it's [[MediaWiki:Titlewhitelist|whitelist]] and it's [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist|blacklist]] config pages modified.
 +
* [[mw:Extension:PageImages]] - It seems that we may need to add the images used in various templates to [[MediaWiki:Pageimages-denylist|this extension's deny list]]. that way they aren't mistaken for the page's image.
