[edit] Discussion
So, I'm thinking of restructuring the Current Events to simulate this: Current computer and video games events. Yes, no, maybe?--AlphaTwo 09:41, 20 February 2006 (CST)
I support this. One thing that I noticed is that editing it seems like it would be pretty hard for the common person. There is currently a lot of wiki code that you would have to know just to put a new day of news up. I don't have any solution to that, I'm just throwing that comment out there so if you do restructure the page you might keep that in mind. -- Oddity 16:05, 20 February 2006 (CST)
- Well hopefully the idea is that each section will be isolated into their own template box, therefore you only see the thing you want to add or remove. The reason I'm suggesting this restructuring is that it will help us keep the yearly events easily documented.--AlphaTwo 16:16, 20 February 2006 (CST)
How about bringing back the headlines, like this. I kinda liked the headlines, easy to quickly check out and they gave the page more character. -- Oddity 15:11, 21 February 2006 (CST)
- Looks good. --AlphaTwo 15:18, 21 February 2006 (CST)
