==Local team portals==
On a slow connection, these load very slowly, leaving big empty boxes one has to scroll past to get to the Community New section. Perhaps the portals should moved down in the page? --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 09:34, 28 May 2010 (EDT)
: Removed for the reason you offered and lack of positive reception. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 19:30, 28 May 2010 (EDT)
:: I actually liked the idea very much, but maybe we could set something up where we cache smaller images that are periodically updated? --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 23:31, 28 May 2010 (EDT)
:::Yes, I was afraid that even having them at the bottom of the page would be distracting in the lower-bandwidth case. I also think that, for lack of an announcement to the Local Labs wiki coordinators, they may not have realized that their front page was now on the this front page. I'll copy this section to Bernie and the systems team and, perhaps you can help us identify and forward it to the other wiki coordinators, and then restore the appropriate features as recommended by a fuller collaboration. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 11:20, 29 May 2010 (EDT)

Maybe using small icons instead of text would be a better treatment for the Local Labs on the landing page? --[[User:Walter|Walter]] 18:32, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

== Dates for news ==
I think news items in the main page should have a date attached to them -- [[User:Bernie|bernie]] 16:26, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
== Need a "click me" on SOAS Image on welcome page ==
The fact that the large image of SOAS on the top of the wiki welcome page is clickable is not very obvious. Could a "Click Me" be added to it? satellit 4 October 2009
: This works on [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Images]]: <nowiki>[[File:SugarLabs3x.jpg|right|link=Sugar on a Stick|Click me!]]</nowiki>, but not yet on our instance: [[File:SugarLabs3x.jpg|right|link=Sugar on a Stick|Click me!]]<br>Perhaps when the software is upgraded, this will begin to work. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 03:59, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
==My Idea==
My Math4 related program is actually a game based on a snow ball fight. I have set in stone whether it will be something where you have complete freedom of movement or whether you can only move from one spot to another. The way the later would work is you have the choice of going Back, Forward, Left, or Right (the arrow keys, possible WASD) and once you select on you are shown running to another spot where you can hide behind something and have cover from others (PC) trying to hit you with a snow ball. The Math that will be involved is the Pythagorean Theoreom (Geometry) to determine how far you are from an NPC you may be trying to hit with a snow ball (would be an overhead view); you need to know this because you can only throw a certain distance which is also not set in stone. Additionally the player will need to understand percentages, decimals and factions and an example of this is they may be given a stat: "You have a 50% chance of hitting that player from here." Then they may be given the chance to convert that to a fraction (50% = 0.5 = 1/2) and if they are correct then their chances of hitting the NPC go up, but they need to make sure they are close enough (Pythagorean Theorem) or they will not throw it far enough. Once they decide to throw there will be a side view show yourself and the NPC and you will select the percentage of your total power and the angel at which you would like to throw. There's a lot of room for more math related concepts and possible different modes within this game, but that is may basic idea.

==I miss the "people" and "download/releases" links on the top of the wiki pages==
I know that we are trying to simplify the wiki, but there is a lot of unavailable information since this change. [[User:satellit|Tom Gilliard]] (05/29/2010)
