hiccup apparently aaru has advantages and redump's use of DiscImageCreator is more a convention than something fully tested

   * Clean up and finalize the [[carts:nintendo:virtualboy|Virtual Boy guide]]
   * Clean up and finalize the [[other:nintendo:fds|Famicom Disk System (WIP)]]
-  * Create a USB/removable flash guide - WIP page [[user:wip-dumping_usb_devices_using_caine_linux|here]]
+  * [[discs:general|General Disc Dumping]] guide: add more information on advantages of certain disc drives (e.g. Plextors)
-  * Create a floppy disk guide
+  * Is it worth dumping each chip individually for some carts? Examples of carts where this would be useful: [[https://team-europe.blogspot.com/2022/01/yeno-masters-of-multicarts.html|different parts of ROM exposed depending on PCB configuration]], [[https://datomatic.no-intro.org/index.php?page=show_record&s=32&n=0516|some kind of circuitry for byte-swapping the ROM output]] ([[https://datomatic.no-intro.org/index.php?page=show_record&s=32&n=2445|2]])? Maybe just looking at the PCB is enough to find special cases like these.
+  * Create Atari Cartridge dumping guide.
+  * [[ https://atarigamer.com/pages/lynx-cart-programmer-pi-hat|Possible Atari Lynx Dumper? ]]
+  * Document this GB dumping homebrew for GBA https://github.com/Lorenzooone/gba-dump-gb
+  * Add explanations of why the different pieces of info are useful to record to [[submission:general-detailed|Gathering and Submitting Dump Info (Detailed)]] / and generally just why its good to use common/open source methods.
+  * Add instructions on how to dump save files
+  * GBA: Document [[https://github.com/RattletraPM/gbaxxdumper|gbaxxdumper]]
+  * Hiccup's notes: https://hiccup.miraheze.org/wiki/Notes_to_assist_with_dumping_guides
+  * It may be a good idea to dump as much as possible (or the maximum known capacity) from some carts on some systems, to make sure all the ROM is dumped (even if the capacity is written on the ROM chip), and then analyse the overdump to find the actual size. Maybe this is something that could be done by the dumping hardware itself - maybe make suggestion on Sanni github discussions.
