Front page design

As you can see, I gave the Main Page a very simple design. Absolutely nothing major there. The page is open for editing, and if you can give it a nice design, it would be awesome. morshem 08:55, 25 Nov 2006 (CET)

Re: Front page design

I guess we can learn from Wikipedia. I could try a similar approach for the top bar at least, for the Twinsunica. --Wacko 20:22, 10 December 2006 (CET)

I was thinking of maybe listing the main categories (characters, locations, etc.) with representative images. Sort of like the Hebrew Wikipedia. morshem 20:40, 10 December 2006 (CET)

Yes, I very much like that idea. We should have the recategorization finish first, then put the main ones on the front page. --Wacko 23:17, 10 December 2006 (CET)

I started making a small draft, here. Of course the images should be replaced later with own-made images, and also the categories are debatable, but what do you think of the general idea? morshem 18:31, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

Looking good. In my opinion, the images should not link to categories, but portal articles. I don't like the information at Category:Characters to be written into a category description. I think it deserves a place in the article namespace.

Yes, categories are disputable. I wouldn't put Legends there, it would more fit under a collection site Miscellaneous. (sp?) --Kobold 20:10, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

Actually, I don't really like linking to categories at all. Maybe we should create portals like in Wikipedia (e.g. wikipedia:Portal:History) for each section. morshem 20:39, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

That's what I had in mind. And for the links to Island inhabitants, we could replace them by lists with the most important inhabitants of the island. --Kobold 21:02, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

Hmm, it seems that "portal" is not a known namespace here at all... morshem 05:50, 16 April 2007 (CEST)

I'm working on a new version for the front page. Progress can be seen here: User_talk:Wacko/Main_page-new. I'll open a new thread on the MBN when I feel it's mature enough for further adjustments. I'll incorporate the categories index as proposed by morshem somehow. --Wacko 22:11, 23 April 2007 (CEST)

First Aid forums

The Hints\Spoilers and System Problems forums on the MBN got merged, so we need to update all our Related Links to take note of that. - Kobold 15:25, 1 January 2008 (CET)

If somebody knows how to run a MediaWiki bot, it would save a lot of work. morshem 16:04, 4 January 2008 (CET)

Hmm.. I don't. But that would be worth looking into. I did a quick Google before but didn't come up with immediate solutions. Wacko 15:03, 8 January 2008 (CET)

Article names

What exactly is our mode of capitalizing names of the articles and headlines? I've by now seen every possible one.

1. Capitalize the words according to English rules (game: "gazogem refinery" -> Gazogem Refinery; game: "Principal Island/island" -> Principal Island)
2. Leaving everything uncapitalized (game: "Lucky Clover Leaf" -> Clover leaf)
3. In the article itself, capitalizing the name (game: "orange powder" -> "The Orange Powder (...)".)

I think we need to set up rules on how to do that. - Kobold 12:03, 12 January 2008 (CET)
