To do list

edit

These are improvements that could be made if anyone has time:

  • Provide more information (discussion, progress) for each indicator. Scour all the links on the HLPF website.
  • Add some more maps (from SDG Tracker website / Wikimedia Commons) and images (Wikimedia Commons)
  • Improve the flow of text in the background section because some of it reads like just a collection of facts but without good prose and flow.
  • Improve lead to make it a better summary of the article
  • Find any other good progress reports for SDG 8, find out who the custodians for the different targets are (if they exist)
  • Find more progress information for some of the indicators which so far don't have progress information provided.
  • Add more wikilinks to other articles in Wikipedia and vice versa.
  • Find Wikipedia articles that explain some of the key concepts that are used in the SDG 8 article, for example I could not find anything for Aid for Trade yet (edit: has now been created). Material footprint could be another one. We should not have to created new articles - often times they exist but just under different names. EMsmile (talk) 07:41, 9 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
