Forum:2008 main page redesign

I was having a look at other wikis and saw some stuff that we could add to this wiki's main page as it not very intresting. I know this discussion has happened before but no action has been taken, here a list of some stuff: Ok thats it, just thinking these might be nice especially the quote one. ANyone have any thoughts?--Skittles the hog 11:08, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Quote of the Day/week
 * Did you know
 * On this day (mabe not)


 * I know the quote of the week or day was discussed and i think the did you know section would be interesting I'm not sure about the on this day (at the wiki's current level) but the other two would be good aditions Dark Lord Xander 11:23, 7 August 2008 (UTC)


 * As Dark Lord Xander has said the quote was discussed, at our wiki's level there isn't enough active people who would update a quote on a weekly basis (though there's a discussion floating around about it).
 * As for the Main Page in general; it was tricky enough fitting what we had on it before the new ad format came in, if we brought in any further elements everything would need reformatting once more. --Tangerineduel 14:08, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

I dont know anything about format but I come on this wiki everyday mostly so I could easily change quotes. There could also be a page were users add quotes that are assesed by someone in charge e.g an admin and those quotes would be inan order for them to be used as the Quote of the day. I agree the On this day thing was a stupid idea but the did you know section would be intresting for fans.--Skittles the hog 15:20, 7 August 2008 (UTC)


 * With the adverts on the main page to fit around it leaves hardly any room to much around with, that's what I meant by format. I'm not keen on playing around with the main page (as it took some doing to make everything to fit well around the ads). But I'm willing to wait and see what everyone else thinks. --Tangerineduel 17:12, 7 August

I admit it sounds hard work but surely its for the best. I agree that we should wait and see what others think.--Skittles the hog 18:59, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
