 # Novice scripters need lots of help learning [[BSL]], and the material that's up there now is good, but incomplete. Anything you can add in the way of info on the [[BSL:Functions|functions]] and [[BSL:Operators|operators]] is welcome. Also, the [[BSL:Tutorial]] and related [[IGMD]] subpages such as [[IGMD/EnvWarehouse]] need some real [[wiktionary:tender_loving_care|TLC]].
-# There's still progress to be made in the field of [[OBD|binary hacking]]. Says geyser: "I'll try and make a TODO table showing whether a file format is 100% understood or not, whether the layout needs improving or not, etc." He also reminds us that we have some nice [[:Category:Headers and footers|header and footer templates]] to produce a consistent look-and-feel for the OBD pages.
+# There's still progress to be made in the field of [[OBD|binary hacking]]. Note the "OK?" column on [[OBD:File_types]]. Any page not marked with a happy face still has data stored within that file type that is not understood.
+# Aside from doing actual research on Oni's binaries, you can also make sure that each [[OBD:File_types|file type's page]] in the [[OBD]] namespace actually explains what that file type is for, to help out newbies. A short blurb at the top of each page will make things much more user-friendly.
