== How can you help ==
==Where we need help (everywhere, but here's an easy list)==
This is a rough draft of things users can help with on the XBMC Wiki.
*All of the FAQs, see [[:Category:FAQ]]
*Spam/vandalism monitoring. Check [[Special:RecentChanges]] for obvious spam or vandalism.
**An upgrading to v11 (Eden) FAQ for changes, what to expect, where to find things that moved, the file/library mode thing, etc. See [[Upgrading to XBMC v11]] for a pre-created page.
*Go through all pages in [[:Category:Outdated]] and rate them (template will be updated to be ratable) as for how outdated they are (as in, can't be updated, applies to a past version, or maybe a 1-5 scale)
*Improve [[Quick Start Guide]]
*Update the Quick Start Guide.
*Update screen shots on various pages (click on an image and then click on "upload new version)
*Update the manual- Major re-organization here needed. There will basically be "two" manuals (though pages can be included in both): A basic user's manual, and an advanced user/developer manual. In the advanced/developer manual will be the sub-manual for Skins, Add-ons, etc.
*Wiki How-tos for:
*Figure out better page navigation. Right now we use the XBMC TOC templates for most of the navigation, along with wiki links and categories. We need some kind of mini/sub-category navigation template for small groupings of pages.
**Bluray stuff
*Templates to make data entry easier: For example {{tl|Remote}}, which will be expanded with many more parameters. There could also be a template to help with step-by-step instructions, with options for screen shots.
**3D stuff
*Categorization! Need to plan out a proper category tree
*Screen shots uploaded for all skins in [[:Category:Skins]]
*Editing 101 help links- basic help info for editing a wiki, as well as listing any special features such as sectional transclusion.
**Any other kind of manual/help info specific to skins
*Adding pages for each add-on, skin, repo, etc.
*Pages/writeups for:
*Guidance on user created content.
**The official Android remote app
 
**A list of iOS remote apps
{{:User:Ned Scott/wiki skeleton}}
**[[Troubleshooting]]
*Spelcheking (everywhere)
*Cleaning up the MySQL FAQ: [[HOW-TO:Synchronize multiple XBMC libraries]]
**Explain how to convert an existing library with local shares to network shares for MySQL: [[HOW-TO:Synchronize multiple XBMC libraries/conversion guide]]
*Useful keymaps. See [[:Category:Custom keymaps]]
