interwiki map
I think it should be kept 'small' the map... too many inter-wikis and we'll probably no use them. Also adding specific olpc related wikis (like Nepal's, Tuquito, or similar) should be added. 2cts --Xavi 11:32, 19 June 2007 (EDT)
extensions
parser extensions (or rather the ability to do 'if') in some templates would probably simplify and enhance the use of it. Possible collateral damage is making it to cryptic. --Xavi 11:32, 19 June 2007 (EDT)
language
I saw in the special pages, the Special:Withoutinterwiki (labeled 'Pages without language links'). I tried a bit but couldn't get it to work... --Xavi 11:32, 19 June 2007 (EDT)
Shiki_Wiki link colors
The Shiki_Wiki skin, now the default, currently shows "seen" links as gray. This makes them very hard to scan for, as they blend in with the black text. The blue "unseen" links are ok, but once you have seen an article, its links disappear. Since link following is currently our main navigational technique, especially with Search being broken, this seems a very bad thing. Why are we using a non-standard link color anyway? Visual design should make the user experience easier and more pleasant, not cognitively harder. I strongly suggest reverting to browser link coloring. MitchellNCharity 15:12, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
You also now can't tell, based on link color, whether a discussion page exists or not. So you have to hover the mouse, and look to see if the url ends in edit. (observation by Xavi) MitchellNCharity 15:43, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
- This shows up clearly on my monitors -- the gray vs blue for links and the gray vs white for existing vs empty talk pages. talk to the creator to get the colors changed! you can change your own back to monobook, of course, but better to get the skin fixed.... 59.112.162.93 16:57, 2 August 2007 (EDT)
- I think that the "Sugar" skin shouldn't be the default. I see it as a novelty thing, with no other reason for being: while there are reasons for the current Sugar look on the XO's (the dual-screen, power, and other design constrains), these don't apply to a collaborative wiki on the web. It also has some rendering issues with Konqueror. HoboPrimate 17:38, 2 August 2007 (EDT) But I don't want to bring down the effort of the person who did it, it's nicely emulates Sugar's look.

merges and renames
better nomenclature:
- OLPCWiki: namespace --> OLPC:
- This page : The OLPC Wiki
- The OLPC Wiki --> Welcome
project suggestions
please suggest wikiprojects for this wiki here.
- OLPC Countries
- OLPC India, OLPC Mexico
- FAQ/query-help
- Repair/troubleshooting help
- Customization
- Build updates/installation
- Activities/Libraryes
- Specific wikiprojects for categories? peripherals.
- OLPC India - deployments, distribution, FAQs
- OLPC India - database of partnering organizations (combined with symantic wiki forms)
- OLPC India - content
Google Searching sans ads
As a non-profit, you should be able to get google search on this site without the ads. In google's Custom Search Engine page, there's a checkbox for non-profits to search without ads, and I assume later they ask for the tax-ID number, which is what they used to do.

Requested Extensions
I am very familiar with all of these scripting languages:
- EasyTimeLine
- GraphViz
- Google Maps
- Ogg Handler <== Must have
This would add pizzazz and a picture is worth a thousand words ... at least until the image namespace is all tidied up? — Katie 17:58, 21 January 2008 (EST)
Comments on extensions
Ogg Handler! Yes. I'll add the above tonight if I can find time. Working on something for Google Spreadsheets at the moment.
