Applying a little David Allen "Getting Things Done"...
Here we hope to create a place to find out about the trails within our area. What's our area? As far as the visitors to our site are willing to document. Here we hope to document ''public'' trails and parks centering on Kingsport.  


<h1 style="display:inline-block;margin-top:.1em; text-align:left; margin-bottom:.2em; border-bottom:0; font-weight:bold;">We need your help!</h1>
*Actions
Please, jump right in. Hit edit, type, save the page. With all changes logged and if needed easily reverted, there is no risk of "screwing it up." Help can range anywhere from contacting webmaster@tehcc.org and telling me something we got wrong, to diving in deep and doing heavy page editing. We need all levels of help for this to work best for all of us.
**Finish updating IB's on trail and shelter pages (Search for "DON'T EDIT THE GOOGLEMAP TAG") to find all needed pages. While there also add "Marking = *" to the IB
 
**Run Special Pages->Unused Files to find unreferenced files. Delete or add as appropriate. Ones used solely for embedded Google Maps don't show as used, add to page anyway to get it off the list (to make finding real problems easier) and make finding the pictures easier
<h1 style="display:inline-block;margin-top:.1em; text-align:left; margin-bottom:.2em; border-bottom:0; font-weight:bold;">What's going on?</h1>
**Run Special Pages->Broken links and fix problems found
* Current work
*Someday/Maybe
** Reviewing pages to add new "[[Template:Trail page needs|trail page needs]]" template
**Make a park or trail system template with own IB
* Ongoing
**Especially for trail system parks, somehow make a suggested routings and connections (prime culprit is Bays Mountain which has many trails only accessible from other trails)
** Updating after hikes
**Setup GPS (GPX?) waypoint and track downloads. Would we turn on the available googlemap extenstion KML download, link directly to the KMLs, or make a separate GPX file for download?
** Tweaking pages as needed (eventually based on [[Trail needs list|needs list]])
* Ideas on deck
** Create trail search system (including needs searching)
** Create park list that details number of trails and miles of trails for each park
** Create dynamic site map of trails and parks
** Create map balloon template to list basic information on site map of trails and parks
** Better tag trails for use (e.g. foot, bike, atv,...) and features (e.g. overlook, waterfall, history,...)
** Have park pages also list hike plans nearby
** Have trail pages list "trails nearby", maybe within 5mi radius?
** Create a trail template and form to make casual editing easier
** Figure out how to easily get KMLs and possibly waypoints out of the wiki and into phones/handhelds
** Create elegant way to subgroup trails (Warriors Path Bike Trails only example so far)
** Create a hike plan infobox
** Figure out a way to easily add "trip reports" through form
** Have AT sections pull in recent maintenance
** Cleanup non-trail/park pages for layout and organization
** Figure out a way that a park page, if we don't create the individual trail pages, could still return in a query number of trails and miles of trail
** Figure out a way that KML's could easily be added
** Write a "how to GPS log and create KML" page
** Can we elegantly tag pins and query them with desired icon (show "park" pins on trail pages)
** Have queries return icons for tagged use/features
** Fix/update Shelter IB
** Take shelters out of Shelter namespace
** Trail rating system
** Pair this list into 'Planned' and 'Ideas'
** Better separate "Allowed Activities" (e.g. hiking, dogs, ATV, horses) from "Attractions" (e.g. waterfalls, vistas, highpoint)
** Update trails map for filtering on tagged keywords, park, features, etc. [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps_examples/Google_Maps_with_searchmarkers See example].
