It's never a bad time to visit the Pretty Pretty Princess page to find out who really wears the crown-pants around OLPC.

Design update

I updated the design after many moons -- now with a smaller software infobox, cleaner first-page and a tad more color. I still don't like the shade of green we use in the headers.... --Sj

Render bug on a Mac

XO image on left pushes the two columns below right. Seen on Mike Sw's laptop. --Sj talk 16:06, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing here, but in my Chrome and Firefox on Ubuntu, the navigation panel on the left hand side is pushed below the main content pane, just leaving empty space to the left of the main content. This is very annoying; unless someone can look into this issue immediately, I would switch to the standard "monobook" theme if I were you. --Maxxflow 20:01, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Add Projects/Localization link

Please add a Localization item to the Projects category in the sidebar. I'd also suggest reordering those items, in alphabetical order. Clytie 05:18, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Wiki extension requests

See also the current extensions in use, from the OLPC:Wiki page.

Mark Burnett and others have asked for the liquid threads extension to be turned on. (to see liquid threads in action, check out Wikimedia's Strategy wiki.) Any thoughts or concerns about this? Turning LT on will make it difficult to go back (the threading will be lost, and even the commoent-page assocition would be hard to reconstruct) -- so I wouldn't advise making the switch and then turning back. --Sj talk 20:55, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
