Wiki TODO list: Difference between revisions

2025-10-06 update: SemanticWiki plugin was removed due to SW security issues and high maintenance effort requirements. This broke lot of the wiki functionality, like there's no more auto-generated list of next registers, etc. The source data used by the plugin to generate remaining content and format it are still available as individual wiki pages, check Special:AllPages (but if something is missing also here, then it's gone, AFAIK only SemanticWiki code, templates and auto-generation of final page look is gone, so all the Next specific info should be still somewhere in source articles). At this moment I'm not aware of any attempt to improve current state, but if you feel like you want to give it a go, maybe sync on the Next discord at #wiki-wizards-and-hosting-heros channel first to have most current info on situation.

--- older notes, which now after ages sounds to me like "improve everything" ---

These items are known to lack in information amount or accuracy (and anyone having spare time and required information is welcome to improve them):

Sprites - main article is up to date, seems also formatted well, still somebody checking if it holds against actual users and what can be improved...
various main articles: check wording, if they are in sync with official docs/manual (memory page vs bank, port vs register, etc...)

+--- older notes, which now after ages sounds to me like "improve everything" ---
 These items are known to lack in information amount or accuracy (and anyone having spare time and required information is welcome to improve them):
-* [[Extended Z80 instruction set]] contains many instructions which were removed, and some instruction have incomplete info (timing, flags affected, etc..)
+* [[Sprites]] - main article is up to date, seems also formatted well, still somebody checking if it holds against actual users and what can be improved...
-* [[Sprites]] - while new 4-bit sprites are covered in nextreg details, the main article is outdated.
+* various main articles: check wording, if they are in sync with official docs/manual (memory page vs bank, port vs register, etc...)
-* [[DMA]] describes proper Zilog DMA chip, while ZXN contains heavily modified variant (no search, no single transfer, has extra mode with delayed output for sound sample playing, requires fewer instructions to init mem2mem transfer (there is quite some info scattered over official forum posts).
-* [[SpecDrum/DAC]] missing completely.
-* [[RPi0 Acceleration]] - currently under development by Victor, needs more stable release to be documented.
