The wiki to-do list is a list of all current tasks that are required to maximize the quality of wiki information. Most of these tasks are doable by any user, except for any bot-related tasks, which can only be done by a member of staff that has an operating bot (currently only GaiaTheBot and Pilafbot78).
To propose a new task be added to this list, message a wiki staff user about it on their message wall.

General tasks
These are tasks which all users can do, regardless of whether they are staff or not:
Article maintenance
These tasks apply to a wide range of articles:
- Ensure grammar and vocabulary is correct, following the Manual of Style
- Ensure all articles follow the Layout Guide, namely a purchasable skins section, strategy section (dot-point form), asset gallery, history section:
- Change the Strategy section of articles from paragraph-form to dot point-form and also make them in third person (changing "you" to "the player").
- Update any erroneous or outdated information in articles to make it reflect the current state of Mope.io:
- Change the infobox to display the Season 1 skin of the animal first, as Season 1 skins are the default since November 15, 2024. This coincides with the file renaming task.
- Make appearance only describe Season 1 skins (listing them as the default skins) and how they change in abilities if applicable. Other sections should be deleted.
- Add an "Assets" subsection to the Gallery section on articles, with all animal skins and related assets. For example, see King Dragon#Assets. Screenshots should go in an "In-game" subsection below assets.
- Add interlanguage links for each page.
File maintenance
- Ensure that all files on the wiki have a file description using the {{File}} template, and a proper license
- Upload all assets from the game files that have not yet been uploaded to the wiki, and archive them:
- Rename asset files so they comply with the file naming policy (recommended to do before updating the current image in infobox). Once done, update that animal's {{ImageLink}} link.
- Ensure that the file description of the asset includes the original asset link from the game files, and an archive, using the {{File}} template in the description.
- Record animal abilities and in-game functions/effects as short gifs, upload them, and add them to the respective articles and Special Abilities page.
- Add all evidence files that appear in Special:UnusedFiles to the Help:Files/Evidence page, to keep them from appearing as unused.
Specific tasks
These tasks may apply to a limited range of articles, but can be done by all users as well
Articles
- Update the food article to also include information about food consumption (food outlines, health, effects, etc.)
- Update the main biome article, and the other biome articles (Land, Ocean, Arctic, Desert, Forest) to use the {{ImageLink}} template
- Fix the formatting of the tree article, upload and archive relevant assets.
- Fix the strategy section of web and add history section
- Add gifs to the Special Abilities article and possibly reformat it completely (to be determined)
- Update the Deep Ocean article to include other info revealed by Shaun and Lophii on Mopecord.
- Expand the unreleased features and scrapped features pages to include content revealed by Shaun and Lophii in 2024.
- Fix broken cites on these pages as well (replace {{Cite}} with {{Cite discord}})
- Update the Bullet Ant page format and note it is a developer-exclusive animal, not unreleased
- Update the Santa article and upload all of its assets
- Note that the Arctic's floor is now light blue
- Document the snow chilling feature introduced on December 20, 2022 and removed the next update.
- Change all instances of "Honey Bee" to "Honeybee"
Templates
- Fix the parameters of the {{FoodChain}} template to be specific rather than numbers; update articles that use the template accordingly
- Add the {{CurrentCost}} template to the Skins article subpages (update the template price too)
- Fix the {{Tab}} template (looks weird; change color scheme and remove horizontal line underneath)
Staff tasks
These are tasks for wiki staff to do. If you are not a staff member, please do not do any of these tasks yourself without asking first.
- Infobox maintenance:
- Create an infobox for AI animals
- Update the food infobox to include paramter for sustenance (if provided when eaten), health, special effects, etc.
- Create a navbox for articles under the Game Mechanics and General Information categories (possibly combine into one navbox/category?):
- Rename said categories to sentence-case style
- Create subcategories for redirects (?)
- Discuss whether to categorize redirects (e.g. for rare animals, developers and designers, etc.)
Bot tasks
These tasks are only to be done by bot accounts:
- Rename all "Animal Images" subcategories to "assets", and update the old category to the new one. For example, "Category:Animal Images/Armadillo" needs to be renamed to "Category:Armadillo assets"
- Fix all files that appear in Special:UncategorizedFiles:
- Add a screenshot file description to all uncategorized Mope.io screenshots
- Add an appropriate description and link for all uncategorized assets (archive them if not already done), and for reconstructed assets
