Please do not edit this page.

Sections to Add
GradComm! They get a load of questions every year for the same exact shit. It'd probably be:
- Main article with list of to-do's to graduate
- FAQ page addressing all those strange nuanced questions Can I do this ceremony? What if I'm on exchange? I've missed my grad photos, what do I do?
- Maybe a page for Lassman Photography? They've got McGill under their thumb, not sure Gary and the gang are going anywhere anytime soon
- Iron Ring page?
- Plumber's Ball is currently a subcategory of Graduation Committee. Should be it's own article IMO
Computer Labs: I know McGill IT / NCS is pretty thorough on their online how to's, but it'd be nice to show available software for download, where the computer labs are, etc.
Mental Health & Equity related content:
- What is consent?
- On Campus resources (this is found in so many places it should be real easy to make a nice list)
- How to advertise events with alcohol inclusively (Healthy McGill has a nice infographic for this)
Funds: Getting money is the number one job of a lot of positions. Doing it on campus has a general procedure to it.
- See
- History of funds would be cool, as well as general makeup for how many
- SSMU Funding is pretty robust on the Funding sources page, deserve it's own page?
Tracking
Tracking is a new form of, well, tracking the different pages across the wiki. It's built on the addition of hidden categories to pages that are the responsibility of explicit entities such as execs, departments, etc. It has not become so minute as individual groups yet as that would be unnecessarily trivial. The breakdown can be found in the Category:Tracking page, or in the below category tree.
Major Pages
These pages are jump points to major resources on the wiki. If these pages are not constantly up to date the wiki loses it's credibility.
Empty, Stubs, In Progress
Another way to checkout what's going is by checking out the "What links here" for Template:Empty, Template:Stub, and Template:In Progress.

VIKI Wiki Mapping
This is a fun extension that needs some taming, but in short you can use it to map connections between different pages. Good for visualization for something, I'm just not sure what yet...
