This is a set of "to do" lists, "to do" suggestions and comments intended for the internal use of RAWiki contributors.

Feel free to use the special pages to identify areas in need of attention. For example Special:WantedPages

List of needed articles

Suggested articles can be placed here if there is no time to simply create them. In addition to listing the article here, if possible, place a red link to the suggested article somewhere in the wiki or identify another suggested article in which that link can be placed to avoid creating orphaned articles

  1. Joel Salatin
  2. Soil fertility
  3. Holism
  4. Economies of scale
  5. Economies of scope
  6. Biodiversity
  7. Arduino
  8. Conventional farming

To do lists for specific contributors

Add suggestions here for articles that a person might be able to write. *If someone leaves you a suggestion and you don't feel that you are able to write the article they suggested, feel free to remove it from your to do and, if you like, suggest someone else to write it. *If an article you want to write appears on someone else's list - write it anyway! they can always go in and make it better. *This can also be discussed in the the talk page for this page.
