An Unknown Emergency!! - Episode 2: Attack of the Backlog
- There is much to do in Malton. Several hundred Danger Reports are out of date. Real life and other responsibilities made it difficult for the limited number of Malton Danger Updaters to maintain up-to-date Reports. You, a player of UD, are returning to Malton to assist the overwhelmed MDU...
- Program timing: Ongoing now, until completion!
- Description: We (again) need to sweep the whole city. Any building not updated in January 2023 or later should be marked unknown. This is a sweep of the whole city, so feel free to do a single suburb, block of five, or as much as you can!

Marking Unknown (Cyclic)
- Note that this task is currently suspended as the whole city is way out of date. Please see the temporary task above instead.
- Program timing: Ongoing/permanent. This month our task is to mark all buildings with reports from February 2018 or earlier in the center, southwest & northeast quintants unknown. This has not been completed for this month.
- Description: This is an on-wiki only task.
Each month, one quintant of the city is to be swept to replace old (more than ~4 months out of date) building statuses with "unknown". This occurs on a five-month cycle, with each radio sector (see map) being swept in turn.

An Unknown Emergency!!
- It's an emergency! The whole city is far out of date — 2019 is almost upon us, and 2017 statuses still swamp Malton. If only someone could help save the DangerCenter!
