User:CIA391/Homepage rehaul
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
This is a big project to rehaul the main page.
Drafts
- Current
- Draft 1
- Experimental draft
Ideas
=Calendar based stuff
- Add todays date as a banner tile, maybe tie it to another idea like the callender one.
- Calendars
- Put a Today In Halo thing on the wiki. Focusing on Birthdays but events also
- Example Nookipedia Todats Birthdays
- Put a Today In Halo thing on the wiki. Focusing on Birthdays but events also
This "could" replace our featured articles. But we could move our featured articles to the news where each news we feature an article. (We also kinda do that on our twitter with Lore Thursday)
Wiki status alert
- Smash Wikis Status system: An idea we could implement if we want to let regulars know how to deal with certain scenarios.
Wiki Project/Community stuff
- Bulbapedia stuff
- Main page
- Focus on the bottom banner where users can rapidly get to the seperate areas of the wiki
- If we did the latter we will need icons for each section (unit patches perhaps)
- Halopedia - Archives - News - Discord - Forums - Twitter (Probably keep that out) - Fanon - International
Flair and design
- Not a lotta images needed bar perhaps a banner flair.
- Mario wiki
- Make the news be popping with a unique cursor when hovered over. Really not vital thats extra flair thats not needed.
This is more a site revamp so unlikely. But make the top of the wiki dedicated to the logo.
- Metriod wiki: Not sure I like this but push to the team
Polls
- Add polls. A lotta wikis have these. And we have the ability.
Current title focus
- Current title info
- So if a recent title has daily events. Dedicate a section to that info. (Presumably automate it if possible)
- After a certain time move said stuff onto the portal page so its still accessable.
- Example Splatoon wiki
- Version number and a link to the details
- So if a recent title has daily events. Dedicate a section to that info. (Presumably automate it if possible)
Fanart section
- Featured Fanart
- While best suited for Halopedia news featuring Fanart may be nice
- Example Nookipedia Featured Fanart
- While best suited for Halopedia news featuring Fanart may be nice
