These need to be banded in terms of priority.
To-do
[edit source]Templates
[edit source]We should definitely have some of these as well as working on the category structure. Perhaps something along the line of Template:British Library Named Collections would be useful. --Mr impossible (talk) 14:17, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
Also an image template which includes clear links back to the item's entry in our new catalogue and our logo would be beneficial.
- In progress by divers hands. Discussion at Wikipedia talk:GLAM/TNA#Templates. - PKM (talk) 23:48, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
The current commons category seems to be http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:The_National_Archives but how widely it's applied I've no idea.

- Template:NRA already exists. I did some autolinking of the National Register of Archives list and bios on wikipedia a hile ago, which I could dig out if people were interested. See e.g. this list of what were once redlinks. Dsp13 (talk) 12:44, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
Images
[edit source]TNA has a rich archive of images that could be used on Wikipedia articles - look at their Flickr stream for an idea of their collections. They are accepting requests for images over on the "Images" tab - try and think of images that only they could provide, such as images commissioned by the UK government, or that are of interest beyond the United Kingdom.
