== Interwiki mapping for wiki.sugarlabs.org == |

Interwiki links coded as [[sugar:Some page title]] are currently directed to http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/wiki/Some_page_title. |

They need to be directed to http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Some_page_title. |

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.... --[[User:Sj|Sj]] |

I'm a Roshan : ICT teacher in vidulipura school and e-village coordinator in viduliura e-village in Sri Lanka.I created my account on wiki.laptop to share my experince with CMPC (Class Mate Personal Computer) in my school. |

: Great! Thank you... please continue to share your experiences with us... --[[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font style="color:#f70; font-size:70%">talk</font>]] |

XO image on left pushes the two columns below right. Seen on Mike Sw's laptop. --[[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font style="color:#f70; font-size:70%">talk</font>]] 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. --[[User:Maxxflow|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. [[User:Clytie|Clytie]] 05:18, 16 March 2010 (UTC) |

[[User talk:Mark.Burnett#Plan|Mark Burnett begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting]] and others have asked for the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LiquidThreads liquid threads] extension to be turned on. (to see liquid threads in action, check out Wikimedia's [http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Strategic_Plan/Movement_Priorities 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. --[[User:Sj|Sj]] [[User talk:Sj|<font style="color:#f70; font-size:70%">talk</font>]] 20:55, 11 September 2010 (UTC) |

:: Having taken a looked at your [http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Strategic_Plan/Movement_Priorities Strategy example], liquid threads looks much more intuitive to use as it automatically indents conversation, providing clear 'reply to' type functionality that makes it easier for non-wiki users to contribute. The more people we can get to contribute their problems and solutions, the better. It also seems to provide a way of watching only the particular conversations you are taking part in rather than at the moment, if you start a conversation on a page you can only watch the whole page - meaning you get emailed every time anyone comments in any conversation. This very soon becomes less useful than just manually going around and checking once you are having conversations on multiple pages. Given a key to success in improving the content here and making it easier for people on deployments to find the answers they need, turning this feature on seems like a natural way of improving collaboration on managing the knowledge and getting the questions answered. As far as the technical challenges, I have not used liquid threads myself but it seems to be standard and in use without issues on other wikis... unless anyone has experience to the contrary. -- [[User:Mark.Burnett|Mark.Burnett]] 21:12, 11 September 2010 (UTC) |
