::: And If page sources are always available to automatic tools then I agree there’s no need to make HTML comments, yeah — I suggested them mainly for this reason.

::: I’ll add opt-in <code>inline</code> switch a bit later, and then maybe let’s make just-comment todos always visible and argument-less todos always invisible, but personally I think that may be too tight. --[[User:Arseniiv|Arseniiv]] ([[User talk:Arseniiv|talk]]) 19:39, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

:::: Okay, I misinterpreted your HTML comment suggestion, thought you are planning to introduce it through a template. HTML comments could of course placed in wiki text on each place and they are of course helpful for editors. But to collect todo pages id does not help very much. I'm sure the wiki search isn't able to find them. BTW: boxes on pages alone do not force anybody to fix things, look [[Template:External image]] for a in my opinion sad example. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 20:14, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
