I'm preparing to convert most of the empty pages (and only empty pages) automatically but they would look really empty without any info. What do you think is better to leave them bare like [[Backyard Baseball '09|this]] or put a placeholder table like [[B-Boy|this]]? --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 11:21, 10 August 2014 (BST)

:Leave a table, it gives potential testers an idea what goes where. --[[User:Tonygiang|Tonygiang]] ([[User talk:Tonygiang|talk]]) 10:11, 11 August 2014 (BST)

== Correcting and completing the machine conversions ==
This is a small note on how to correct the auto-converted pages into their finished state (in case you have some time and want to help):
# First of all you need to choose a page to correct from this [[:Category:Temp - unverified automatically converted pages|category]].
# Start editing the page and open the page history simultaneously.
# Search through the history (using '''prev''' links) and find the author of the last configuration change.
# Copy authors name into '''Tester''' field
# Fill '''OS''' field if possible (some comments may contain it)
# Fill '''Status''' field (0,1 or 2)
# Fill '''Region''' field if possible (some comments may contain it)
# If the older records in history contain previous test information (which was exchanged for the current by the mentioned author), you should add another test case and fill it as well.
# If all goes well, remove '''<nowiki>[[Category:Temp - unverified automatically converted pages]]</nowiki>''' line from the article and '''save''' it
# Minus one unfinished article, thank you!
<br/>
This is a slow process so it will take some time until all these articles are corrected. --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 10:37, 14 August 2014 (BST)
