| − | All right, so The iPhone Wiki has articles about baseband ''processors''. However, the [[XMM 6180]] is about the baseband ''platform''. The wiki mostly references baseband processors, but I'm a bit reluctant to go that route since it was [[User:Oranav|Oranav]], who definitely knows more about the baseband than me, that changed the article from baseband processor to baseband platform. I'd like to keep things consistent, so should we stick with referencing it by processor or platform? This inconsistency is bugging the crap out of me. --[[User:Dialexio|<span style="color:#C20; font-weight:normal;">Dialexio</span>]] 06:19, 9 August 2010 (UTC) |

| − | === Cleanup orphaned pages === |
||
| − | The [[Special:Lonelypages|orphaned pages]] should be cleaned up. Possible work: |
||
| − | *most of those pages need to get updated |
||
| − | *add a link on another page to it, so that it's not orphaned anymore |
||
| − | *The main page and some disambiguation pages may remain orphaned. |
||
| − | *Some pages are really old, outdated and not worth to get updated. In this case add a deletion request to its talk page. |
||
| − | *Maybe we need a new overview page that links to some of these pages (e.g. my request for a [[Beta Firmware]] page, see [[Talk:VFDecrypt_Keys:_3.x_BETA#STOP]]) |
||
| − | *Please note that links with a prefix don't count for this list, so that pages that only appear on a Category page also appear in this list. To get the full links list, go to the page and click "what links here". |
||
| − | I started with a little cleanup already. --[[User:Http|http]] 10:02, 23 October 2010 (UTC) |

| − | === Deleting Firmware (keys) pages === |
||
| − | One thing. A key page should never be deleted unless it is empty. They still have valublw info on them. --[[User:Balloonhead66|Balloonhead66]] 03:55, 20 November 2010 (UTC) |
||
| − | :I agree. Firmware pages shouln't get deleted. Missing information will get filled out sooner or later anyway. And we don't want to delete and recreate them. I'll delete firmware pages only if the page's name is wrong. If information on it is wrong, please just write it onto the page or remove the wrong info. If the page is empty (no keys) this still applies, but please don't create new empty pages. --[[User:Http|http]] 08:26, 20 November 2010 (UTC) |

| − | === Polls === |
||
| − | I think we should have a page for polls, like this: [[Polls]]. I am requesting this as I need to take a quick survey, and I don't know where to place it. The poll does relate to the iPhone... --[[User:Balloonhead66|Balloonhead66]] 00:41, 16 November 2010 (UTC) |

| − | Well the wikis startpage (and maybe other pages) do not display really good on the iphone ;) -- [[User:M2m|M2m]] 16:11, 14 September 2010 (UTC) |
||
| − | :Well, I think it's good enough. Ok, it's not optimized, but it's ok. If we improve the startpage to have only one column, then that would look ugly on a PC. I work a lot in here from my iPhone. The biggest problem is the edit box. You cannot really edit big texts from your iPhone. But that's a problem of the Wiki itself (Mediawiki) and we cannot fix that just by changing texts or layout. -- [[User:Http|http]] 22:25, 14 September 2010 (UTC) |

- Nice! Just a few things: I doubt the wiki will be renamed to "The iOS Wiki", and the "By geohot" line is inappropriate, as this wiki is edited/improved by all of us, he's just the guy who set it up. Nice though! Did you use GIMP by any chance? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by fike (talk) 18:02, 12 December 2010 (UTC).
