Roadmap

Missing pieces​

  • A deployment record for each environment (local/preview/production) with build and verification evidence
  • An accessibility checklist and recorded accessibility checks for production publication
  • Static asset organization notes documenting CSS/JS/data placement and build outputs
  • Release/publication notes and post-deploy route checks
  • Monitoring and uptime notes or a review cadence
  • A rollback or restore expectation note
  • A key route inventory (important URLs/routes) with post-deploy checks
  • Build/test/release verification — the manifest shows build_verified = false

Next steps​

  1. Identify and record the current site generator/runtime and exact build commands
  2. Run a full build, capture artifacts, and set build_verified = true in the manifest with evidence
  3. Create a deployment record per WDS naming environment, version/commit, deploy time, and post-deploy route checks
  4. Perform and record accessibility checks; add an accessibility checklist to the repository
  5. Document static asset organization and add a key route inventory with verification steps
  6. Record monitoring expectations (manual review cadence or monitoring tool) and a rollback/restore note
  7. Reconcile any useful fields from legacy manifests into the canonical manifest without deleting migration evidence

Potential improvements​

  • Publish dataset distributions (NDJSON/JSON-LD) with provenance and source citations per node
  • Automate build → verification → deployment record generation for a preview environment
  • Add provenance links for each distro entry (source URL, scrape timestamp, author) directly in the dataset
  • A compact API endpoint or local preview server serving the graph JSON for other tools to consume
  • Schema validation for incoming distro entries, with CI checks for data integrity

Creative enhancements (ideas on file, not committed)​

  • An influence-score overlay visualizing computed influence metrics per distro, driving node sizing
  • A timeline playback mode animating lineage growth across years, with era filters
  • An LLM-assisted fact verification and inline citation suggestion tool for curators
  • Export connectors to Gephi, Cytoscape, or GraphML for offline analysis
  • Interactive provenance badges linking each node to its scraped sources (Wikipedia/Wikidata) and snapshot timestamps
