This page is for discussion about the Main Page. To discuss matters about SmashWiki in general, please find the appropriate venue via the Community Portal, or visit the Pool Room.

The general discussion previously on this page can be found on this archive page.

Browse SmashWiki

I took out the link to SmashWiki:Browse because it's redundant with the main page. Should we expand the main page a little bit, to perhaps include "Smashers" as a category, or maybe link to some Help topics? I plan to retouch the main page but I want to gather your opinions first.

I'm not sure about including Smashers as a category, but I'm certainly open to other layouts for the Main Page. Maybe you could make a sample Main Page and put it as a subpage or a user page or something? Making the help section more obvious would make sense, I think. --Kirby King 20:36, February 5, 2007 (GMT)

We've got a problem...

Anything with "Shell" in it seems to cause problems for internet browsers on this website. On Internet Explorer, it causes a 403 - Forbidden error when you search for something that has "Shell" in it, or go to an article that has it in it. In Safari, you can search for it, but the articles themselves still cause problems. Is there some sort of coding error that made this happen? If not, and it can't be fixed (Or we don't know how), we could at least create a temporary fix by doing what happened to the G&W article when the & was giving it problems: just have it be permanently redirected from another name. Green Shell would probably be redirected from Green or GS, and Red Shell would be redirected from Red or RS. Also, could people with other internet browsers, like Opera or Firefox, try it and see if they have problems, too? WaluigiIsAwesome 14:20, February 6, 2007 (GMT)

This talk page is about the main page - address this issue at the Pool Room. MaskedMarth (t c) 19:50, February 6, 2007 (GMT)

Main Page seems bare

Shouldn't the main pageinclude stuff, like, the current number of articles, and maybe, perhaps, an article of the day/week? I'm just wondering, as mostother Wiki have those sort of things. It's a work in progress, right? There will be stuff like that eventually, right?
