Projects[edit]
Here is a personal list of various tasks I aim to do, as well as those linked above, if you're reading this, be free to help!
Main task(s):
Short description: starting from Category:Geology of Wales and Category:Administrative divisions of Wales (Category:Counties of Wales and Category:Ceredigion; Category:Geography of Ceredigion; Category:Populated places in Ceredigion; Category:Villages in Ceredigion)
- Wrexham buildings (for various buildings in Wrexham and the surrounding area)
- Maps at Commons User:DankJae
- Notes - I cannot find detailed topographic data of South Wales :(
Tasks:
- part re-write/update TrawsCymru
- re-write Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet cause why not
- further re-write City Line (Merseytravel)
- Shropshire Hills AONB map
- Maps for Wrexham County Borough#Geography
andSouth Wales Valleys - Replace File:Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB DCC map.svg
- Merge principal areas templates
- Vector trace Welsh history maps
- Update Welsh covid maps
- Create NPOV English-language versions of topics which happen to have biased Wicipedia entries, but not rely on them. They should take both sides into account, nor be one-sided to the English POV here either. Wicipedia in the end has very low criteria so cannot be used for English Wikipedia. While English Wikipedia has some Anglo-centricism which needs addressing.
- Census 2021
- 2024 Welsh constituencies
- Potential split/reduce of Wrexham County Borough (own work) and swap content with Wrexham per WP:LENGTH.
Rewrites:
- Pembrokeshire Coast National Park

For current sandbox tasks:

Drafts:
- Draft:North Wales Society of the Blind – Abandoned draft to delete per WP:G13, I assume it will not pass WP:ORG and wouldn't be reviewed. Had second thoughts on its notabilty, and mainly created to accompany the cy article rather than its notability. I accept, I was wrong!
Project support[edit]
- Sub-pages
- User:DankJae/Wales-related names (to analyse potential article moves to new common names, usually to Welsh names)
- Organising sources needs to be sorted out a bit more
Aim to raise discussions on their anniversaries (1 yr etc.)I'll do it when I feel there is a high possibility
- User:DankJae/Nationality (to analyse a personal biography's chosen nationality, and once complete moved to relevant talk) (Start less notable first)
- User:DankJae/templates (for new or re-done templates)
