Talk:Main Page
From Kunena
-- Core2 08:29, 14 April 2009 (UTC) I would suggest some change to the frontpage for the wiki. First of all the use of color is confusing. I can't crack the logic behind it. Some box (tables) are yellow and withe, some are different shade of yellow and some are different shade of blue. I would like to suggest that the "important" and "most popular pages" box switch positions. And after doing that the "Helping with the documentation effort" box could be moved to a subpage. Further I would like to move "Other items of interest", "Latest additions" and "License" to subpages and only have link to them form the frontpage.
Removing stuff from the frontpage will make room for some space between the content, to day it is very compact and need some "air". Then we could extend the "Frequently sought information" to be a more complete TOC.
--Sozzled 01:11, 20 April 2009 (UTC) As we have discovered, there is some "resentment" by some forum moderators to the use of certain pages in the forums (for example, Posting_guidelines). I edited the posting guidelines page because someone prefaced the page with Wiki section markup code [===] that, in effect, screamed what a simple disclaimer would have done.
The problem, as I see it, is with the statement at the top of the main page which states "official Kunena documentation" while at the same time encouraging contributions from ordinary users. Although we could create a Wiki template that provided the same information as the disclaimer I rewrote on the Posting_guidelines page, we might as well write the same disclaimer on every page if the forum moderators are going to behave in an overly critical manner! Perhaps the easiest solution is to eliminate the term "official" from all documentation. Obviously, then, the interpretation on any information contained in this Wiki is that it's the result of the collaborative effort of all users.
If, however, there is an official position to be stated, we might use a Wiki-style template to indicate it as such (see Wikipedia "Help:Checkuser" for an example).
--Sozzled 00:56, 22 April 2009 (UTC) Tidied main page according to my understanding of what core2 recommended. I don't see the need for two "boxes" to describe the "documentation project". Why not eliminate, entirely, the "documentation" box on the top right by transferring any important, relevant information (if any) into the "documentation project" box on the bottom left? Can someone please enlighten us on the status of the documentation project(s)?
Unofficial content disclaimer template

Move licensing information
--Sozzled 07:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC) I would suggest moving the licence information to the About Kunena page in order to reduce the clutter.
