MediaWiki talk:Sidebar
Some discussions to date about the sidebar:
- How to limit the number of fields
- Where to put the search bar
- Whether "Email and IRC" should be one link or two
- Where to put a help link for using the wiki
from arjs
Consider moving the current 'Content-url|Content' to the 'about olpc' box and call it 'Content principles' or similar, and then have a new Content link that goes to the Category:Content page (or a prettified version of it) or an expansion of or enhancement to the Template:Content-nav table that provides links to the major content project pages. You may eventually need to use a collapsing table to satisfy all the demand for sidebar billing. --FGrose 14:18, 26 February 2008 (EST)
- or better overview pages...
The Health project needs a link on the side toolbar (left). I think since it is a project, it could perhaps come under the Projects category. What does everyone else think? --Arjs 13:24, 26 February 2008 (EST)
- A whole nav for content subfiels would be appropriate, perhaps at the very end --Sj talk 16:21, 13 April 2008 (EDT)
Emulation
I find this ink invaluable, and something that visitors are always asking for. but perhaps it belongs moreprominently on the main page? --Sj talk 16:21, 13 April 2008 (EDT)
Recent changes
I'm confused by the movement of 'Recent changes' to the 'about olpc' block. The changes listed are the direct changes to the wiki and less so to OLPC. --FGrose 22:14, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
