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)

:Well it's not anonymous 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)
