These are things that still need to be done for this web-site
What follows here are things that volunteers can do for our web site. The list is broken into two separate items. Things that are ready now, and things that need things done by the Admin first before they can proceed. Items should be removed from this list once they are completed.
The main reason for these changes is that by employing a wiki, these pages can be updated by other members of the group when they identify something as incorrect or need to include new information into our knowledgebase.
Ready To Go
- Create a Links page for links that are of interest to the 401st. Links should be itemized vertical based on whether they are directly related to the group. For example, anything directly related to the 401st should be listed first, followed by anything 8th Air Force related, B-17 related, other WWII Aircraft, WWII, etc... As an example of where to start and how it might look, please look at our current Links page found on the Main site. When completed, please let the admin know so that he can update the link to the new page.
- Our History page should be moved to a new History page. Format can be the same, or similar to the original.
- A new Association History page should be created. The difference between this page and the History page is that where the Main History page is about the group during WWII, the Association History should be about the Association, itself, it's formation, significant members, etc...
- A page for the Historical Society to replace our current one should also be created detailing it's purpose, members and history.
- A How to Join (Membership) page needs to be created describing the purpose of the organization and it's benefits. Some coordination with the Webmaster will be required to ensure that members can still make payments through Paypal.
- A Contributions page needs to be created to replace the current Contributions page. This will allow all members of the organization to more easily recognize others who have contributed, not just to the website, but to the group overall.
- A new Gallery page needs to be created to replace the current one. The new version should reflect NARA collections and other items not easily placed elsewhere. For example, images and videos related directly to a veteran/crews/aircraft will be better served moved directly to its corresponding page.
- A new page dedicated to the Champaign Lady with a description of the project, reports of progress and images of contributors, etc...
- The War Time Accounts page should be phased out. Instead, a page should be created for each veteran who made the account (See our How To Create Member page] and then each account added to that. Once completed, inform the Webmaster so that he can adjust the links accordingly.
