Talk:Main Page
Please discuss changed to the main page here before making edits. Thanks. FreshBoy 17:09, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
Templates
I added a new template for Stubs, based on Wikipedia's Stub Template. Please use this for any "shell page" we create by placing it in the first line of the page, so we can keep a handle on what's what. The Stub Template automatically adds the page to the Stubs Category, so there is no need to add a stub category tag to the page as well. FreshBoy 10:46, 15 March 2007 (EDT)
Style
Need style update on the new main page. Jonah? Maybe shades of purple rather than the greens for the boxes? FreshBoy 17:17, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
- Can we use a background image via CSS for the box headings? (Jonah 18:33, 14 March 2007 (EDT))
- not sure if we can use images this way... Not sure we want to-will add time to page loading. Also, this looks great on my BlackBerry, images probably won't, though. First successful BlackBerry edit. FreshBoy 20:46, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
Empty Pages
I think we need to stop making essentially empty pages for broken links. I think seeing the red links is effective to get people to post content. I agree with posting templated pages as was done with the chapter pages, but I am all for leaving pages without content until there is something of substance to have in them. i.e. a region page saying this is a region page is counter productive in my opinion.
