Hopefully somebody will read this. Where should I post it? The main page's forum should be just for discussing that, but I can put it there if that's what everyone wants. Or should I create a forum page, or post to Wikisimpsons Forum. Problem with that is, the discussion won't be accessible to all (they'd have to create another sign–in.)

If you can give me the approximate time they appear in the episodes or an image of them and a simple explanation of what they do, that will help. It isn't that easy and I will need something else to go on.

==Homepage==
 
Hi. I remember a few weeks ago there was that discussion about a homepage redesign. I was speaking to Solar Dragon and he said to speak to you about it. So, is anything happening? I've been looking around at some other wikis for ideas and I think the Muppet Wiki is probably the most suitable. Or, we could just mix and match different aspects of different wikis. If your not willing to handle the homepage redesign anymore, no worries, I'm sure Solar and a few others editors will be willing to help. Oh, and congrats on becoming an admin! {{User:Effluvium/sig}} 10:57, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
 
  
Thanks for the admin-ship. As far as the main page, I really didn't have any ideas, I just suggested that it look neater, and the removal of the clean-up box has helped that. [[User:TheUnderfaker|TheUnderfaker]] 00:38, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Hi. The templates I'm having problems with are [[Template:Eraicon]] and [[Template:Eras]]. I copied the code from Wookieepedia. I thought I had everything working and added it to the Homer Simpson article, however, the template didn't show once I'd saved it. This is quite a fairly complex code and I'm afraid I can only just get my head around the tab system, as it is! Hope you can help!

:I'll continue the conversation here, seeing as Solar Dragon doesn't want the messages on his talkpage. So what do you feel about that? Just a catagory? Seeing as the article was already featured on the mainpage for a month, isn't that enough.

::Well, if (presumably) new people are always joining the Wiki, or coming here to read something for the first time, then maybe they didn't see an article when it was featured for a month on the main page. Also, having a banner or icon in the corner, whatever, to denote a featured article is really more of a way of saying, ''This is what we can accomplish when we all work together'', because a Wiki is a community first.

Welcome![edit]

Hello, TheUnderfaker, and welcome to Wikisimpsons!

Thank you for taking interest in our wiki. If you have any troubles, feel free to ask questions on my talk page or any other any experienced editors' talk page. Also, you could look at a help page.

Here are a few pages to help out new editors such as yourself:

Please sign your name on talk pages by using four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your name and the date. Signing your comments is important, as it lets other editors know who has posted which comments.

Again, welcome! ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 08:18, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
