Proposal 1

This is a general redesign proposal for the navigation found on the main page. It attempts to provide the broadest amount of information in the least amount of links. Most of the sub-article links have been removed. Even the external links have been removed as they are listed in the community portal. --Lint 20:58, 28 May 2006 (BST)

Wow, I've probably visited the Main Page 500 times, and it seems like half of those I went straight through to one of the following pages:

Camps

So I was disappointed to see the Camps gradually shrinking and shrinking and disappearing entirely from the Main Page. If I'm heading into a foreign village, I need to be able to get into the Resource Hut & get what I need and move on efficiently. No other pages have such immediate and constant utility. --Tycho44 05:10, 5 June 2006 (BST)

Yeah, I understand how useful those direct links were. But when I was removing sub-articles I wasn't sure where exactly I should draw the line so I removed them all. I'm generally fine with readding the camps back in underneath the Locations link or create a new menu section. What is your stance on the links to the Bug and Suggestion related articles? --Lint 05:27, 5 June 2006 (BST)
I think the camps should probably be added again, though I like the rest of Lint's changes. But instead of putting the camps back in a list, why not mention them all in the game description (which already names the native camps and links to them)? — Elembis (talk) 05:32, 5 June 2006 (BST)

Why do we still have the link for the Unofficial forums?

All it does is confuse people that click on it instead of the official. It should be deleted methinks. Or is there a reason why it stays? --Wulla-mullung 21:05, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it should be deleted, because it contains several threads of historical importance. I took the liberty of adding a phrase to deter people from posting there. I couldn't think of a better way to describe the forums as inactive; someone with a better idea should change it. --Oktavius 19:04, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Newspapers in the main page

Two was fine, but now with Jungle Drums things will start to be cluttered. Would it be reasonable to have a separate section for newspapers? --Wulla-mullung 23:42, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Another possibility is the removal of the Yorkman from the front page, since that worthy paper has been inactive for months. I left it there out of respect for the role it once played, but we have to move on eventually.--Black Joe 04:03, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
