| + | This page is for questions, comments and discussion about the [[Main Page]]. Old comments on this page get moved to the [[Talk:Main Page/Archive|archive]] from time to time. |

| − | * So I was thinking, how do you guys feel about having the categories on the front page, using a cloud format, aka, more frequency/more articles bigger font? [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 20:46, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
| + | For more general help, questions and discussion, please head over to the [[WikiCU:Community portal|community portal]] or the [[WikiCU:Editors bulletin board|editors bulletin board]]. |
| − | :* Sounds good. Maybe something like this: http://www.umasswiki.com/wiki/Main_Page. If you want to mess around, head over to [[Main Page 2]]. I'll try it out tonight if no one else has given it a shot by then. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 07:29, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

| − | ::* I'm trying to figure out how to get a weighted list like on Flickr or last.fm . It could go by number of number of page views, or number of pages under a category, etc. I don't know if we could include a tag cloud with the wikisoftware... hmmm [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 23:28, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

| − | :::* Looking into it right now. I think it should be possible. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 18:15, 23 March 2007 (EDT)

| − | * In anticipation of an influx of users, I'm going to increase the protection on the main page so that only admins can edit the layout. The content comes from [[Intro]], [[Links]], and the relevant [[Calendar]] page. For the time being, I'll leave those editable by anyone. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 18:15, 23 March 2007 (EDT)

| − | :* You may also have noticed than only registered users can now edit the wiki. This is for two reasons. First, we were getting some spam. Second, I want to encourage people to register. I don't anticipate making it any more stringent than that. I think it would be a great shame and even downright harmful to require columbia.edu email addresses or prevent off-campus people from contributing. I'd welcome any support or criticism on this issue. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 18:15, 23 March 2007 (EDT)
