What does the title "Main Page" add to the coverpage? -- Robin (talk) 10:07, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Nothing, but we're stuck with it just now. The No Title Extension crashes the site. There is probably a simple solution but I haven't looked for it yet --Peter (talk) 10:17, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Is there a list of articles with no content in the bio? I am working on filling in missing bios but there are somewhat hard to ID. There are a lot of outstanding VIPs especially for the more recent bilderberg meetings. -- Dan (talk) 02:01, 18 August 2019 (EST)

Effective immediately, pages will only be shown in the people tab if they have an image. In cases where no image can be found, use person.gif (Person.gif). -- Robin (talk) 22:37, 2 July 2017 (IST)

Any thoughts on the following ideas would be welcome:

  1. Removing all Stubs from the front page
  2. Moving the "" tab to the left and making it the top one by default
  3. More information about the pages, such as the page description

-- Robin (talk) 04:54, 5 September 2016 (IST)

  1. Agreed - but a separate stubs tab towards the RH end would be good.
  2. Not sure about this. If Edits excludes Stubs, then it is a good indicator of current content activity. Whereas the rated pages will remain relatively static.
  3. Good in principle but some descriptions are multi-line so general appearance may be a bit irratic. Suck it and see I guess.

  1. ✓ Stubs are now gone (more or less) from the left most 7 tabs. The SMW formatting takes a while to be processed, so very new pages (white "doc" icon) may be stubs.
  2. ✓ OK, the "" tab stays as #2, to keep the coverpage changing.
  3. Two possible ways to handle information overload are:
  1. A tooltip
  2. A fixed # leading characters
