Developer's To-do list

  1. Fix images listed below
  2. Add “how to use this site” page
  3. Add attention getting message with arrow pointing to search box saying something like “Search for your favorite mutant by entering search terms here”
  4. Extract mutagenic method from progeny info (PT field) so that we can know all the categories.
  5. Make start page like Bing, with large image filling the screen and a search box.
    1. About this site, etc could be little links near the bottom.

Roadmap

  1. Invite local testers
  2. Construct complete table of existing MaizeGDB Variation IDs and/or phenotype IDs for each mutant.
  3. Construct complementary list of mutants that have no such corresponding IDs.
  4. Automate update process
    1. Automate posting pages
    2. Automate backup of ACCESS database (use AT?)
    3. Automate daily and/or weekly updates?
  5. Set up a system for adding new content
    1. Come up with “standard” form for submitting images and descriptions
      1. Required information
        1. Researcher contact information
        2. For each image
          1. File name
          2. Gene name
          3. Phenotype name
          4. Phenotype description
          5. Caption
      2. If available please provide the following
        1. Genetic information
          1. Originating individual ID (i.e. your internal unique ID)
          2. Designated gene symbol
          3. Physical location
            1. Genomic
            2. Chromosomal
          4. Allelic information
          5. Experimental information confirming the mutation
        2. MaizeGDB Variation ID

Issues

  1. Images completely missing
    1. iojap (found them in a “coe” directory)
  2. Images uploaded (need smaller uploaded photos so that page times are reasonable on slow connections)
  3. One or more old images currently being used for (list is far from complete)
  4. Images needing to be rotated
  5. Fix rotation of images (overlaps with above):
  6. Images found in another directories
  7. Modify captions to emphasize that the normal images are normal
  8. Update to newer version

Additional Issues

  1. Get original photo from CD:
  2. Fix automatic matching of MaizeGDB variation IDs
    1. viviparous
    2. pigmy
  3. Finish adding links to MaizeGDB variation pages
  4. Automate process of updating pages
  5. Add tags based on defined phenotypes
  6. Create pages that display all of the content for individual tags
  7. Exclude tag-based pages from search index so that there will not be duplicate hits to the same content
  8. Replace images that have been edited since Oct 2012.
  9. Crop images (if still needed after updating images)
  10. Add wikitionary links to terms that are likely for people to not be familiar with (e.g. andromonecious)
  11. Hide developer sidebar (unless logged on). The biggest problem is the “show source” icon looks like a search icon.

Miscellaneous

  1. Find out about monitoring page hits

Update photos on the following pages:
