:That's my fault. I designed the main page, and I mostly use a 1280x800 screen, so nothing appears squished. However, I do realize that on smaller screens things don't look great. I'll get rid of the calendar just now because it has little use over the summer. This should solve the problem at least for the duration of the summer. {{User:Reaganaut/sig}} 01:31, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

::OK, I've now made that change. I'm not sure that the main page looks better in general, but it should certainly look better on smaller screens. I've also made it a lot easier for others to edit, so perhaps someone else can have a shot at making it look good. It uses three templates: [[Template:Box]] (a simple content box), [[Template:Box2]] (a content box with 2 places for content), and [[Template:Box-links]] (a content box for the external links, because I couldn't seem to use [[Template:Box]] in conjunction with <nowiki>{{:Links}}</nowiki>). These content boxes are contained within a simple table that's set to 80% of the width of the page. {{User:Reaganaut/sig}} 02:20, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

I've removed all the complicated formatting on the main page, so now it's just a simple wiki page like any other. It may not look quite so nice, but I'm hoping this will encourage more edits. So if you want to add something, GO AHEAD! {{User:Reaganaut/sig}} 21:26, 16 January 2008 (EST)

Re-introduce featured articles?

  • We used to have a gallery of featured articles (4-5 links/pictures on well-developed and/or relevant articles). This was removed a couple of years ago because the list wasn't updated much and felt a bit stale. Is it worth re-introducing a featured article section? The currently-displayed link to the how-to guides could be folded into this section. All views welcome. Admin 11:41, 14 May 2013 (EDT)
I think this is a good idea. How would we go about choosing them? cds2148 11:53, 22 May 2013 (EDT)

Delete search box?

  • The search box in the center of the page duplicates that on the top right. Also, I get the sense that people don't use it much (and when they do want to search for something, the one on the top right is always available)... But I may be wrong. Should we delete it? Admin 11:44, 14 May 2013 (EDT)
Do we have any statistics on how often it's used? If featured articles are moved in it might be worth removing. cds2148 11:54, 22 May 2013 (EDT)
