Things I'll get to...

You Can Help (hopefully)

• create inequality page and add relevant article links

• find & fix the code to display the text of the "school tradition" in {{infobox economist}} in the color white...all the time.

• Fixed figure out why any images I upload can't display in any pixel ratio other than full size.

• Y Done Create interwiki code—like the [[wikipedia:...]] syntax that directly links to Wikipedia articles—for the other Wikimedia project sites Wikisource.
  • Y Done ...particularly the Commons. I'd like to be able to easily tap into that repository of free-use media the same way the other wikis do. (For example see the description for this image on Wikipedia. Notice how it was not uploaded to, nor hosted at Wikipedia...it is in the Commons, and the other wiki sites are able to easily use it without uploading it to their local space. We need to do that.
• Y Done Add functionality of the abbreviation shortcuts for Interwikimedia links

• Correct for URL coding (e.g. punctuation) on {{wplink}}
• Figure (and correct) why {{Infobox officeholder}} output text is too large
• Figure out issue and fix hide function on navboxes div navframes like {{politbox}} uses (i.e. make it appear and function)
  • I was able to fix it for the normal navbox class like in {{navbox}}, but it doesn't seem to work with the divs used in politbox.

• Update David Gordon with links (interviews, etc)
• Expand Category:Writings of Thomas E. Woods, Jr. (with links from his site, etc)

Stuff to fix

• Search feature on Mises Media is broken
• Videos not grouped efficiently
  • examples (Thomas Woods lecture on 14th amendment...video, audio; 33 Questions on American History... audio from 2007 (no video?) video from 2008 (no audio?)

• Add the PDF download link to the resources page of The Case for a 100 Percent Gold Dollar. Update: there is now a new PDF of the book form sold by the LvMI, linked on a resources page here. Ideally the link to the new PDF would be simply added to the original resources page, and this new resources page deleted.

• "HTML page" link on Planned Chaos resources page at Mises.org needs to be corrected to this one

• Correct the download link on the Allen Mendenhall interview (instead of just going directly to the youtube page it should allow a download. Preferably it would have download links to various formats, like here.)

• Add Doug French's In Studio interview to the list on the media page

• There are two resource pages for Economic Science and the Austrian Method [1],[2]...and neither one includes the HTML link

• Add the text of this blog entry to the resources page of The Essential von Mises

• Media page no longer includes link to Youtube version (example)

• "Hazlitt as National Teacher" from the Nov. 2010 issue of The Free Market is listed online as by Henry Hazlitt...it's really by Jeff Riggenbach

• "Law and Economics" lecture from the 2005 Mises U is listed in the 2004 section.

• Add the HTML version of The Betrayal of the American Right to the document page.

• Entrepreneurship in a Capitalist Economy is not listed in the full course catalog (but it does appear in the economics category)

• Add HTML of The Theory of Education in the United States to Document page

• Add HTML of The Case Against the Fed to the Document page

• Display creation date of media, instead of just upload date. (e.g. The Costs of War seminar...all the dates say March of 2004. There is no documentation letting the visitor know the conference took place a full decade earlier, in 1994)
