Highschool of the Dead Wiki:Current Projects

If you would like more detailed information on a project or would like specific tasks, leave your username below the project description. Please only leave your name if you are dedicated to working on the project. If you complete one of the tasks associated with a project, strike through the task under the project description.

Grammar and General Cleanup
This is an ongoing project. The best way to help out with this is to pick a page and read through the entire page, checking closely for grammar errors and other mistakes (incorrect information, repeated sentences or words, irrelevant material, colloquialisms and slang, etc.). Even if you are reading a page or article without intending to edit, it would be very helpful to correct any errors you may see. Go to the Staff Members page if you would like to commit to cleanup on a specific page or group of pages.

Supporting Characters Pages
Many of the Supporting Characters pages are incomplete, and some have no information at all yet. These pages take much less time and effort than the main characters, but they should still be detailed. In addition, there are still a few characters who do not have pages yet, so new pages can be created for them using the same format as the other character pages.


 * Complete the About, Appearance, History, and Personality sections for all supporting character pages.


 * Complete the Summary sections for all supporting character pages.

Chapter Summaries
This project is a little more time-consuming than the others. Detailed summaries need to be written for every manga chapter, which you can find links to on the Chapter List page. These need to be very detailed, and you should only write a summary if you have the chapter in front of you for guidance; regardless of how well you know the story. You can refer to the summaries already completed for Volume 01 for an example.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 02.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 03.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 04.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 05.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 06.
 * Complete all chapter summaries for Volume 07.

Trivia Cleanup
The Trivia sections on most pages need to be cleaned up. Since the creation of the Trivia sections, people have been posting whatever they want in the sections even if it doesn't qualify as trivia. Until now, we've mostly ignored it, but it's time to clean them up. What needs to be done: NOTE: The most persistent bad trivia entries are those relating to the "Takashi and Saeko having sex/Saeko being pregnant" theory. This will no longer be allowed anywhere other than the forums. DO NOT post it on any article page. For those who don't understand: "take responsibility" does refer to pregnancy, but it is a joke. It may be hard for non-Japanese to understand, but this quote from XLG's Volume 4 scanlation may make it clearer, "...apparently, there is a sort of common joke in Japan that any kind of sexual tension results in pregnancy..." It's a joke; similar to virgins getting nosebleeds when sexually excited. Jokes are common in shounen manga.
 * Remove bad trivia entries. These are what qualifies as bad trivia:
 * Well-known facts - facts which have already been stated in another section, belong in another section, or are too obvious to be considered trivia.
 * Fan speculation - this was allowed before but is no longer acceptable trivia due to overuse. Speculation may be discussed in the Watercooler forum.
 * Untrue statements - these are usually obvious, but some may require a strong knowledge of the series to detect.
 * Rumors - similar to fan speculation.
 * Edit bad trivia entries which can be reworded to become acceptable trivia.
 * Contribute new trivia which qualifies as good trivia. Good trivia consists of facts that are obscure or would not likely be known to the casual reader/viewer of the series.
