I don't think we should include '''every''' item category for the Main Page. I'm thinking we should just include the most "feature-rich" item categories, such as powders, drinks and food; categories that people would enjoy browsing through. Then we could organize items in a more cognitive-friendly manner, putting drinks and food close together. Things such as elements, compounds, and spices are not that interesting because they are only ingredients for other items. I believe they should be removed. --[[User:Quintus|Quintus]] 13:30, 29 January 2011 (MST) | I don't think we should include '''every''' item category for the Main Page.

Any ideas for what the homepage should look like? I personally love the look of the Team Fortress 2 wiki. --Herp Derp 14:58, 8 January 2011 (MST)
I like the look of [1] - simple, to the point and has good navigation to all key areas. Btw, what are the Glitch colours? Hburger
- I strongly think a 'type' label in all infoboxes would be useful to show what the thing is. For example, I just mixed up a Juicy Carpaccio and thought it was a drink... Type: Food. Type: Drink. Type: powder. Type: tool. It applies universally and is simple yet effective additional info for the infobox. Edit: could be called category.
Um...so the wiki is not viewable by people unless they have an account. So why do we have instructions for getting an account on the main page? --Bingobar 00:43, 21 January 2011 (MST)
Haha, great question. It's because the wiki will be publicly viewable really soon now [2]. Herp has a formal inquiry out to Tiny Speck to make sure it's ok, but Stewart already mentioned to me that he's fine with it being public so I firmly believe it's just a matter of time till they give Herp a formal go-ahead :) - Eglantine 08:58, 21 January 2011 (MST)
P.S. Two requests for this page. (1) We need a more prominent section about how the three main ways users can communicate once they get the account (i.e.: Herp's Glitch group, Bingobar's Google Group, Johnny's IRC channel) - if anyone is willing to write that up. (2) Does anyone know how to put colors in the headers like the Team Fortress and Minecraft wiki people have? I think the Glitch colors are #f3f3f3 (background) and #0E303C (foreground)? - Eglantine 09:04, 21 January 2011 (MST)
