Main page redesign
[edit]- Voting on: Whether to use the Main page redesign temporarily, starting on 10 December 2007 00:01 UTC so that it is in place for 12 December: Wiktionary Day. To then remain through the rest of December, so we can get feedback and have a more usual 30-day vote. (If that vote trends positive, it would not be reverted along the way.)

- This way we can see it in place, have a much better idea of how it works, and get more attention and feedback. Robert Ullmann 23:26, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- 10 December is not necessary since it is live now, just not directed to. Everything is in place to make the transition on 12 December. DAVilla 16:44, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Support Conrad.Irwin 15:08, 2 December 2007 (UTC), the trial period was definitely the best way to procede.
Support DAVilla 20:46, 2 December 2007 (UTC) although I am ready to change my vote if there are objections. DAVilla 20:46, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Support EncycloPetey 23:34, 2 December 2007 (UTC) It's about time we made the main page more attractive visually. --EncycloPetey 23:34, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Support Atelaes 06:41, 3 December 2007 (UTC) I don't know if my vote even counts at this point, but the new page looks beautiful (and smacks of "Wikipedia knockoff" far less). Also, the idea of running it temporarily and gaging the response is excellent.

Support \Mike 10:50, 3 December 2007 (UTC) I'd love for something similar to this suggestion to become permanent
Support SemperBlotto 10:56, 3 December 2007 (UTC) I like it.

I'll be moving the page in, with the necessary corollary adjustments, sometime tomorrow morning, so it is in place when Wiktionary day (the 12th) arrives in the Pacific ;-) Robert Ullmann 08:02, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- Since this may or may not be temporary, I've moved the redesign to Wiktionary:Main page in anticipation of redirecting :Main page and MediaWiki:Mainpage there instead of Wiktionary:Main Page (note caps). That way we'll be able to keep the old page on standby and the transition will be instantaneous and smooth. DAVilla 04:45, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Ak! The current main page looks just fine even without __NOTOC__ __NOEDITSECTION__ but Wiktionary:Main page does not. It still has the H1 info fact. Is there something magical about the title?DAVilla 05:02, 5 December 2007 (UTC)- Fixed. DAVilla 05:06, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
