Talk:Main Page

Featured articles?

Will the main page, as this Wiki grows, have "featured articles," like the regular english Wikipedia does? Just wondering, I think it would be a cool idea. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 06:17, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

The 500th article

The 500th article! Congratulations, DC Wiki!!! Of course, the article is Tequila... xD. I think we should have put down what the 1st article was, the 100th article, and so on... oh well. ^^ I hope this wiki just keeps growing and growing! CarpetCrawler^{message me} 02:03, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations from me too!! Good work! Philipp S. 05:12, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Congrats indeed, although alot of the articles don't have much to them right now, it's still pretty cool. 501 should be Kobayashi-sensei ;) NakagawaRyou 06:55, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Yay, that's pretty cool indeed! :) And that's just the beginning! There's still so much more to do. This wiki just keeps getting better and better! Keep up the good work everybody! :P --Maurice 14:31, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

More user friendly?

Does anyone else believe that the main page should be more user friendly? Right now, it doesn't really welcome people to the Wiki, nor does it invite them to contribute themselves, and to help us out. I think that, and possible a "featured article," would really make it look nice, as well as more pictures. So far we've got a good idea with the topics parts.

On our mainpage we have got many changing facts, so that visitors are often coming back to the site to see new information. At the moment, there is an advent calendar, where you can see a new article every day. Philipp S. 15:52, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

^^ Things like that are also what I was thinking of. I think we can make the mainpage much more user friendly. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 19:47, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

... Is there no other meaning on this? Or did this discussion alreday come to an end? I hope not ;) Philipp S. 17:31, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

I also hope this discussion hasn't come to an end, as I would love to see a more user friendly mainpage, like yours, for this Wiki. I wonder what everyone else thinks. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 07:07, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

I created User:Philipp S./New Mainpage with my own ideas. You may edit it, if you want to. Philipp S. 15:05, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! I actually had something similar in mind for a while. Just never got around to working on it. :/ Our main priorities at the moment are still the tasks under Projects. But, it's a good idea to have a basic structure in place so that content can be added in the meantime. ^^ I still need to create some templates here and there (a little à la Wikipedia) to make it even easier to update the featured sections.. Ah well, we'll get there over time. Thanks again for your inputs! :) --Maurice 19:33, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

(Line break) Thank you very much, Philipp! ^^ We should implement some cool things from Philipp's version into our version, as well. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 01:42, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Could we move the Search section of the left hand toolbar up to the top of the list? ^^; It's rather inconvenient at its present location. --skyechan 00:48, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Actually, I agree. It should probably be right under the navigation section. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 03:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

UPDATE: I went ahead and moved the search bar. Tell me what you guys think. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 08:09, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Much better! Thanks!! :D --98.166.114.106 08:30, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Tropical Land

I think it deserves it's own article. Any thoughts? NakagawaRyou 01:14, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Add that to this discussion here. I'm proposing an idea similar to that. :) CarpetCrawler^{message me} 05:02, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
