"Thee votes will not really suffice" - well, we got five. ;-) Do we pick up the discussion again (seing how the linked thread derailed and was closed), or do we consider this 5-to-null vote to be sufficient? (I'm itching to get working on the Wiki, and this *is* the starting point.) -- [[User:Solar|Solar]] 08:19, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
:Well it's not anonymousunanimous but 5 vs 1 (see heading below), but that is still about as much as you'd normally see on a wiki vote. Will perform the update later today when I've ran out of appointments ;) - [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 12:50, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:::It's a bit annoying that it shows "(Redirected from Main Page)" - I couldn't see a "move" link. Perhaps making a copy called Main_page and deleting this one will do the trick? --[[User:Love4boobies|Love4boobies]] 19:40, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
::::The main pages have the protect flag on to prevent erroneous edits (edit the templates instead). - [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 08:51, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

So the main question in my mind is -- is the expanded view any better? Is it still a template and not a normal page? And since it's so expanded, why not have a "Categories" section in it, that gives direct access to the Category system, and thus incorporates the functionality of the short view?

:The many ''"more..."'' links cover the category tree very well. It is still based around templates for redundancy reasons. You can find the relevant templates much easier than for the current main page, as they're all named as [http://wiki.osdev.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=Main2&namespace=10 Template:Main2/(...)] (If you have the name, you can find [http://wiki.osdev.org/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=10 the category templates] for the current main page). I can try to categorize the main page templates for easier locating if that's what you want. - [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 18:51, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
