List currently on Template:Recent visitors could get rather long, so maybe have a separate page for it? Robin Patterson 22:32, 1 June 2006 (EDT)

Colors

I seem to have messed up the colors. Can someone fix it? Thanks! TedErnst | talk 19:04, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

News

Mark, you were envisioning the photo news-item staying in the middle while Ray was envisioning all news entering on the left and moving to the right. Any futher thoughts after my mess-creation today? What about news that needs to be "sticky" like the WikiSym notice? TedErnst | talk 19:04, 14 June 2006 (EDT)

Yeah, I am not sold on the "blogging" flow on the front page of left to right. I wonder if having a more constantly image update in the middle surrounded by sticky articles and plain text articles would be more "exciting" (well, ya know, as exciting as text on a wiki can get!). MarkDilley

Okay, no problem. So of what we have there right now, we can put the image back in the middle. Then we have WikiSym, the front-page re-org asking for help and that peer to peer thing. I can do the work to move around again. What would you suggest (or just do it, obviously)? TedErnst | talk 12:40, 15 June 2006 (EDT)

I am just talking out loud, do you want to let it settle for a day or two? MarkDilley

My thought on the "left-right" flow is that if the picture moves from panel to panel, since it is recognizable, it shows more "activity" for the casual user. --Raymond King | talk 12:46, 19 June 2006 (EDT)

Sure thing. TedErnst | talk 15:32, 15 June 2006 (EDT)......

Wiki of the day

You need a wiki of the day, or a wiki of the week! 194.80.21.10 06:58, 19 June 2006 (EDT)

Yes, one per week would probably be more manageable for us to start. Would be great if we had a way to invite the community to participate also, then we could get up to one/day --Raymond King | talk 12:47, 19 June 2006 (EDT)

Ok.

My Wiki

I am the original author of the wiki "FantasyWiki". I just need to let you know that its going to be moving soon, renamed and have a wider scope Minun 07:34, 17 September 2006 (EDT)

Protecting

You could protect the page to "Block unregistered users" so that we won't have any anonymous IP jerkoff vandals. – Smiddle / T·C·S·A 09:40, 18 October 2006 (EDT)

Yes, we can do that if it really becomes a big problem in the future. I'm a big fan of Meatball:SoftSecurity and it seems that today that worked just fine. Hopefully that will continue to be the case. TedErnst | talk 10:16, 18 October 2006 (EDT)

Spam filter rejects Recent Visitors

When I try to add my site, Wikimocracy, to the recent visitors list, I get rejected by the spam filter. This is because the recent visitor's list contains a direct link to wikiindex.org. Have I been doing the wrong thing? --Nopaniers 07:24, 29 December 2006 (PST)

I was just able to successfully edit it logged in both as me and my bot, though my first edit won't showup in the history because I didn't change anything. Try it again. — User:Sean Fennel@ 20:38, 29 December 2006 (PST)

I changed the wikiindex.com link to org. Try again. – Smiddle / T·C·@ 02:07, 30 December 2006 (PST)

Automatically Called Numbers

Presently 3,352 pages about wiki, wiki people and wiki ideas.

Here is code for number of pages and number of files:

Presently 21,984 pages about plants.

Presently 4,780 photos of plants.

Does anyone know if there is a way to automatically insert a number of Wanted pages
