"How to update" links to old page!

"How to update" link on Main page (in box) links to a page saying there is a newer version of this page available (?!) 76.243.220.21 02:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

New main page design

We need a total redesign of the page. Mel and Seth and others have been saying the same thing for a while... so let's actually design a new model and implement it. I'd like to see something like the catalan wp main page : with small colorful in-page tabs, a highly summarized and limited set of information in short paragraphs and bullet points, each linking to details elsewhere on the wiki, and a set of alternative page views including a static html view, for usability.

Each of the sections of the main page is another target for maintenance -- people interested in one area of news or another, in feeds or images or media, can keep that part of the main apge up to date without worrying about the currency of the rest of it; and without interlacing the overall page history with the section history. Now we only need to get the Design gang involved...24.61.14.99 06:15, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

But the new main page design is barren and still static. It needs love! I still like the wikitravel and wikieducator homepages best... along with the catalan Wikipedia. --Sj talk 21:15, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Participation

The menu on the left should include a link to the Participate page. It could perhaps replace several of the more specific topics there.--Mokurai 19:37, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

UBUNTU

How about, let us easily install ubuntu?

I just wrote a howto for Ubuntu Lucid (10.04). It is a slightly involved, but fairly straightforward process. :] It would be nice if someone figured out what changes the stock Ubuntu kernel needs in order to work. --Maxxflow 19:57, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Concise mission improvement

How about, improving concise mission?

As a member of the indigenous Australian community I am very offended with the amount of racism that is going on here.

It's never a bad time to visit the freelance writing jobs philippines 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 talk 23:32, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

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)
