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!    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   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. TheUnderfaker 00:38, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

I thought you were looking into some sort of tab system on the main page though? If you want the task of updating the main page, it is yours. If not, then I'm sure someone else will be up to the job. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 10:30, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, yeah, I did suggest something like that, didn't I? Well, that's just it—I wanted something like on the wikia.com main page, but the closest thing I could find to that was the tab and tabber systems. TheUnderfaker 14:09, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Featured Article template

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! And thanks in advance :)    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   20:35, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

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. Why do we have to have a huge banner over a few pages telling people its a featured article when most will of all ready seen it on the main page? Thoughts?    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   14:37, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

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. But we need more people to come into this conversation before we can decide on what's best. TheUnderfaker 14:51, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, this will be the last major thing I will do. Give me the image to be used and I will sort it out. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 14:54, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

If you're talking about the above templates, you'll find the pictures there. I renamed them to Template:Icon and Template:Icons respectively. TheUnderfaker 14:59, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Go for something more simple. Individual templates. See Template:Featured article. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 15:35, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

OK, thanks, I'll create the rest. TheUnderfaker 15:43, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Looks good, Solar. Underfaker, have you made any others yet?    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   16:41, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I've created all the rest. They can be found at Template:Comp, Template:Locked and Template:Semi. TheUnderfaker 16:48, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Oh no! Seems to be a bit of a problem. Check Homer Simpson's page.    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   17:00, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

I'll see if I can fix it. TheUnderfaker 17:07, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

I'll try and help out too, if you haven't all ready fixed it?    Effluvium    talk    contributions    email   20:59, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

The Silver Homer Award Congratulations! For your outstanding service to articles you have been awarded the Silver Homer Award for August 2010!

Infoboxes and Parameters

Hi, when putting in infoboxes, can you please put in all the parameters, even if they are not likely to be used, as this will eliminate massive spaces in the infobox. Thanks, ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 17:17, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Re: Overall Article Grammar

Thank you for your quick response.
It goes without saying of course, that I'm not here to fuss over these things, merely to contribute the best way I can.
If a discussion board is to be created over this, I'll be more than happy to add my two cents.
I will of course continue to contribute valuably to this wikia and correct as much as I can wherever it is needed. KratosGodofWar (Radi0n) 17:27, September 22, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, no, I wasn't accusing you of fussing; I appreciate you for bringing it up. Feel free to post your two cents at the talk page of the newly-created Project Grammar. I will be doing the same myself soon. TheUnderfaker 17:54, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
