Category:Wikipedia backlog
Main category: Wikipedia maintenance
The main page for this category is Wikipedia:Backlog.
This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of
the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject.
Do not include this category in content categories.
This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list
itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme.
This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference
(appearance → show hidden categories) is set.
These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en
masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at
someone's earliest convenience.
These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a
larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

This category contains backlogs which need to be dealt with. A backlog is a list of things that need to be done, but have not been done for
some time. Backlogs which require the attention of administrators may be found at Category:Administrative backlog. Managerial tasks
that are not necessarily backlogged can be found at Wikipedia:Maintenance.

Use {{Backlog}} to add pages to this category.
