When the call goes out to update and improve a page, it may be confusing as to exactly what needs to be fixed. This page will give you a checklist of what can be worked on.

==User projects==
User projects are created to improve articles related to a specific subject, such as merchandise or episodes where Candace is the main focus. If the goal of the project seems a little vague, see what you can do to give it a more specific definition.

If you signed up for a project, see if there are new pages in its list that people want to work on, especially if it has been a while since you last helped out. To see which projects have been created, check the [[:Category:Projects|Projects]] category.

==Quirky Worky List==
The [[Phineas and Ferb Wiki:Quirky Worky list|Quirky Worky list]] is a general-purpose list of things that can be worked on for the wiki. Some are long-term goals, but can be worked on by several people.

==New episodes==
Update these when a new episode premieres:

*(the episode's page)
*[[List of Phineas and Ferb episodes]]
*[[List of Phineas and Ferb characters]]
**For each character that is in the episode, update the Appearances section of their page.
*[[Big Ideas]]
**Create a new page for the Big Idea of that episode.
*[[List of Doofenshmirtz's schemes and inventions]]
**Create a new page for each of his schemes/inventions in that episode.
*[[Danville Locations: Downtown]]
*[[Danville Locations: Suburbs]]
*[[Danville Locations: Geographical Points of Interest]]
*[[List of songs]]
*[[List of O.W.C.A. agents]]
*[[List of Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated Staff]]
*[[List of Known Fireside Girl Accomplishment Patches]]
*[[List of Doofenshmirtz's backstories]]
*[[List of Doofenshmirtz's traps]]
*[[List of Perry's entrances to his lair]]
*[[List of Ferb's lines]]
*[[List of Phineas and Ferb guest stars]]
*[[List of references to pop culture]]
*[[Background animals]]
*[[Background characters]]
*[[Timeline]]
*Add a link in the [[Memorable Quotes]] page back to the Memorable Quotes section of that episode.
*Add a link in the [[Errors]] page back to the Errors section of that episode.
*Add a link in the [[Allusions]] page back to the Allusions section of that episode.
*Add a link in the [[Trivia]] page back to the Trivia section of that episode.

==Transcripts and credits==
*Add a new "transcript link" inside the episode layout and add to all existing episodes at the bottom of the Episode Summary section.
*Using the Main template, add a link to the full credits page in the Cast section of an episode. See "[[No More Bunny Business#Cast|No More Bunny Business]]" for an example of how this is done for two episodes, and "[[Phineas and Ferb Christmas Vacation!#Cast|Phineas and Ferb Christmas Vacation!]]" for an example of the shortcut for a single-episode credits page.
**New credits pages will need to be made for the episodes that do not have them yet.

==Pictures==
*Any pictures that are in the  category need to be gone through and identify which episode they came from.
*Any unused pictures from the [[Special:UnusedFiles|Unused photos report]] are candidates to be added to an episode's gallery.
*"Build a story" in the episode galleries. Organize the pictures so related scenes are together. See [[Gallery:Crack That Whip]] for an example of how this is done.
*Give the gallieres new section names to get rid of "Gallery name needed". See [[Gallery:Crack That Whip]] and [[Gallery:Rollercoaster]] for examples of good section names.
*Pictures that are in the [[:Category:Picture needed|Picture needed]] category should be updated with higher-quality versions, since many of them were taken from low-quality analog TV recordings. iTunes screencaps are preferred.

==New actors and crew members==
*When a new actor or crew member appears on the show, create a new page for them with the [[Phineas and Ferb Wiki:Page Creation Portal|Page Creation Portal]].
**Use [[wikipedia:Main Page|Wikipedia]], the [http://www.imdb.com Internet Movie Database] and any official sites for information that can be used to build the page.
**See [[Joel Grey]]'s page for an example of the kind of content that should be added.
*For all new actor and crew members, add their birthdate to the [[Phineas and Ferb Wiki:Cast and crew birthday list|Cast and crew birthday list]] so it can be used for the main page birthday section.
*Any placeholder pages for actors and crew members should be expanded. These can be found in the sub-categories under the [[:Category:Crew|Crew]] category.

==Special pages==
The [[Special:SpecialPages|Special pages]] list has several maintenance reports. Any of the reports in the "uncategorized", "unused" and "wanted" sections can be checked to see if something is missing or needs a home.

A more detailed explanation and explanations of other items in the Special Pages list can be found on our [[Phineas and Ferb Wiki:Filling in the blanks|Filling in the blanks]] page.
