Okay, these are the issues I've seen so far:
  • The Recent Changes does not list any of the ported revisions, so we only have a rough estimate of the latest ported revision. I would say to check everything from Feb 6 on to be safe. It does, however, list all revisions made on this wiki.
  • The logs were not ported correctly. We have pages deleted at least as far back as early December that have been recreated here (ex. Template:ZexionWeapons). We need to figure out if there is any way to port over the logs; if not, we have to go through each page.
  • We only have the existing forms of each file as of the 7th. All previous versions are at the old wiki. I would prefer to have the whole logs just in case, so same thing here.
  • The staff do not have their user-rights back yet. The user-rights for all active staff at the old wiki need to be duplicated here, and if any of the active staff want to revoke their rights at this wiki, they may.
  • We will need to hand-port over all edits since the 6th, basically. It might also be a good idea to simply alot portions of the entire database to various editors, and have them sync them up with the wikia version.
  • Monaco still needs to be installed. We should be able to ask for tfwiki's version, and reapply our own mods to it.
  • Tabber needs to be reinstalled.
  • The interwiki linking (for example, to other wikia projects, like finalfantasy, or to our foreign-language affiliates) needs to be fixed.
  • Is there a tool that lets you compare pages a la the diff tool, but between different wikis? Especially if we could have a bot compare pages and figure out which ones need a syncing, that would be great.

Things to do once these are dealt with:

  • We need to make a "Moved" template that basically says "This user has moved to the new wiki."
  • We need to revise the sitenotices; remove the one here, and change the other one to say "we're all at this other wiki" for the rest of the month.
  • Everybody who wants to move over here permanently needs to make sure that their user and talk pages, including archives and sandboxes, display correctly. Once that's done, put your archives and sandboxes up for deletion, and put {{Moved}} on your user and talk pages.
  • We need the "MultipleUpload" tool installed (the old version, not the new wikia-oasis version).
  • If you find any bugs, please list them at Forum:Bug reports.

From talking on #wikia, it seems like we will definitely need to hand-sync all the edits since 02/06. To address missing pages and recreated deleted pages, we will probably need to perform a site-wide audit, for which we would need to alot portions.

I'll handle the hand-syncing of mainspace pages since 02/06. I would appreciate others claiming the other namespaces.
