Renaming Main Page
Right now, this wiki isn't doing very well on Google. It comes up as #3 in a search for "simpsons wiki", under Wikipedia and another Simpsons wiki. On a search for "simpsons", it doesn't come up in the top 300. Google is a major way for readers and contributors to find the site, so it would be great if we could improve this.
One technique that's been really helpful on a lot of wikis is to rename the main page to something that people would be searching for -- in this case, "The Simpsons Wiki" or just "The Simpsons".
As it is, the main page will rank very highly for people who are searching for "Wikisimpsons"... but nobody ever looks for that. Renaming the main page will help people find us a lot easier.
What do folks think about that? Should we do it? -- Danny (talk) 17:08, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah we should it would help us get more visitors and members as you are correct that no one would search wiki simpsons Kingcjc 19:20, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
- good idea (Sgtcook 17:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC))
The Simpsons is actually helping we are now number 1 on the google top 300 if you search Wikisimpsons.
Cool we can edit it

Restored
I have just restored spam/vandalism from the main page. Does the IP need to be blocked? IP: 217.33.74.20
You can see in the page history.
Not knowing where to put this... forum?

Image
The image is now starting to get old. Anyway I beleieve that everyday the featured image, episode, and article should change.Dr. Ralph Wiggum 13:45, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

red links
i'm really fed up of the pointless red links and wrong links such as [[Springfield (Simpsons)|Springfield]] when all you need is Springfield.and they take ages to edit out as you have to find them.Sgtcook 20:36, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Featured Content
The Featured content has been the same since, around November
Kingcjc 20:27, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Not even around November maybye like September or a few days earlier then September. I mean the image is the biggest one as it is getting very old and you can obviously see the character's mouths open. Also, the other featured content is becoming old as well. Every month a new featured content for each category should appear.Dr. Ralph Wiggum 00:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- We Could change it ourselves :) Kingcjc 10:55, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- I think it has to be nominated and under a certain page because all it says on it is {{Featured Article}},{{Featured Picture}} and {{Featured Episode}}.Sgtcook 12:09, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- You have to be admin to change it. This is because the are templates and have been locked by an admin and only another admin can unblock it. So we might be stuck with the same content for a while. Anyway I do agree with John Swartzelder and Bart Gets an F being featured content as they are really good articles, (just remove the quotes on Bart Gets an F as quotes make pages look messy) and you have it. The image is the only one I really disagree with, I think it was just chosen as featured image because it is a really memorable scene. I mean there are more choices for the image, as we could just get the circus couch gag or any random scene for featured image. Anyway what I hate most about the image is you can see the mouth's of Homer, Lisa, and Bart open and it is in a very low defenition. But we might have to wait until the templates are unlocked so we can change the content.Dr. Ralph Wiggum 23:10, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
- A Quite long time as admin are like never online Kingcjc 11:51, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Sidebar
On the sidebar where it says Characters, Locations, Notable Episodes etc. can it be possible to put under the location bit a link to the locations guide --Kingcjc 17:51, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
The Simpsons Biographies
This is an idea that I really think will boost the amount of people who visit this wiki.
I am a HUGE Simpsons fan and a proud owner of 11 Simpsons seasons on DVD ,and I would love to see the biographies on all of the Simpsons and the characters in the show. Thanks A Bunch!
-Calkulus(I play Runescape...add me to your friend's list)
You quite clearly are not a fan, as you would realise that only 10 seasons have been released. Season 11 is to be released September 08. 58.174.227.239 12:48, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Can the featured [ages be changed Kingcjc 06:58, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Concerning Keywords
Everytime I type in The Simpsons, it leads to the main page. You have to fix that
