Old Fixes:

Things to be changed for Phase I:

1. Enable wiki-specific site notices for other wiki projects. i.e. The site notice for Wikibooks would read "Wikibooks is a non-profit project: Donate today." Need to customize site templates. (Brion)

   Alex went (and is still going) through all the sitenotices today and updated links to Donate/Now/ and used {{SITENAME}} for all of them — so we should be good to go on our part. :-) Cbrown1023 talk 00:02, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

2. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fundraising_2008/design_drafts#Current_state_of_banner_.26_future_plans Need to design smaller site notice, no button, but with donate link. (Brion/Tomasz)
3. Translation of non-Core pages to more languages. (Cary/Naoko)
4. Re-launch the donations page with the Chapter related giving options (http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate/Now/de#newtop). Pending chapter agreements in place. (Rand)

1. Enable the thank you pages for donors after they get returned from Paypal (http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate/Thank_You/en) for every language.

10. From this page: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Test/Donate/en, the Questions and Answers needs to point to the local AF Q&A page (http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate/Questions/en). Rand Montoya 19:48, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

12. http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate/Questions/en Check to make sure the "Back to Top" links work correctly. Added an 'id="top"' to the header span in the questions template. --Brion VIBBER 23:06, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

20. Remove the "Chair Emeritus" from Jimmy's title language from the header/top. unknown editor, ty! Rand Montoya 02:04, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

    Not yet possibly, it seems to be removed from en (and only). Sync needed unless it is what you intended. --Aphaea 20:25, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

21. Thank you page (refer back from Paypal) needs to go to the 'Show support' page.
    • "language" parameter for Donate/Support/xx appropriate to each language should be added to the donate pages. --Brion VIBBER 23:10, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
      • We need to create a Thank you page, similar to the Show Support page that already exists, and add the following text: "Thank you for supporting Wikipedia. You will receive an email confirmation and a tax receipt for your donation shortly." A sample is on the dev.site: http://dev.donate.wikimedia.org/index.php/Donate/Thankyou/en.
        • Page is built; we need to localize it and have donations point to that after Paypal.
          • When ready, change the 'returnto' base link in Template:2008/Donate-now. --Brion VIBBER 23:42, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
