Ways to improve showcasing the Wiki's User of the Month (UotM)
Hello, I recently expressed my opinion on how "generic" the wiki showcases the UotM while voting for August's UotM and was asked to bring this up to the rest of the community. How can we better the showcasing of our UotMs? I really don't know of any wikis that do an excellent job of this because the bigger ones tend to remove the idea, although the Runescape Wiki displays their user on the middle/bottom of the main page and writes a short summary on the user and how they improved the wiki. Even a picture could be added to improve this. I think this we be a larger improvement to our version. I am all ears on this subject because a change is much needed. Thank you, --I Ross I 23:05, 21 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I think we could replace the contents box on the Main page with the User of the month box. This means no scrolling down, and it will be in place with the featured article and featured media.

I agree with call of duty 4 that's a great idea.

I support this, but I also think that the entire mainpage needs reorganizing and a general cleanup. 01:55, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Oppose: Actually it's better to have the links to the pages we want higher and accessible without scrolling, it improves what Google thinks of the links and how it places them, not to mention we want our users reading and editing, not hailing some person. 08:31, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
