** Look at extensions to export to PDF.  They should not require [http://www.htmldoc.org Htmldoc], which means [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Pdf_Export Pdf Export] and [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Pdf_Book Pdf Book] do not fill the bill.  Possible extensions are:
*** [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Pdf_Export_Dompdf Pdf Export Dompdf] which is based on [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Pdf_Export Pdf Export] but uses [http://www.digitaljunkies.ca/dompdf dompdf] instead of [http://www.htmldoc.org Htmldoc].
*** [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Wiki2LaTeX Wiki2LaTeX] which uses its own parser. It is CPU intensive and might not render the pages in the same way than the WikiMedia parser.
*** [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PDF_Writer PDF Writer] and [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Collection Collection]. The PDF Writer can run standalone on a server and provide PDF generation for multiple MediaWiki instances. A server for public testing and low traffic Wikis runs at [http://tools.pediapress.com]. It require Python and PHP to be installed with [http://php.net/curl cURL].
*** [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikiPDF WikiPDF] can generate PDF/LaTeX document from a group of pages. It requires Python.
*** Look at alternative intermediate formats from which we can generate pdf (e.g. DocBook XML which can be generated by the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:XML_Bridge XML Bridge] extension).
* User Manual
** Keep in touch with other contributors
** Update [[Instructions to Wiki Editors]]
** Review current manual and look for omissions (partially done)
** Complete the User Manual (see [[User Manual/TODO]])
** Reflection on integration of the manual with the rest of the wiki.
*** What content on Game and Platform pages?
**** Compatibility (version of the games that are supported by ScummVM)
**** Compatibility (games working/not working on that platform)
**** Hotkeys for the game
**** Control on the platform
**** Installation instructions on the platform
*** Do we duplicate some infos?
*** Or should we link to the manual for some of these?
*** Create additional categories to [[Special:Categories]] e.g. Linux, Windows, MacOS ... so users could find special pages concerning their OS very quickly.
* Translations management
** Check [http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/Pootle Pootle]
** Check [https://weblate.org/ Weblate]
* Wiki formatting
** Try to see if we can templatise the tables in [[User:Criezy/Engines]]
* Developments:
** Finish the [[Supernova|Supernova Engine]]
** Proof of concept for text to speech in ScummVM: [https://github.com/criezy/scummvm/compare/TTS code on GitHub] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nX22ZCsLls video on youtube with Mortevielle engine].
** New dynamic layout engine for ScummVM GUI (WIP): [https://github.com/criezy/scummvm-misc-tools/tree/master/GuiElement code on Gitub]
** Qt backend for ScummVM (WIP)
