Talk:Main Page

If you have suggestions, comments, concerns, bug reports or anything about the main page post them here. A special page has been setup for main page change testing at UOGuide:Main Page.

Great work

I like what you're doing here. The wiki system has a lot of promise here and can be kept up to date more easily than Stratics. I'll make a few contributions here and there as I see something I know a lot about. :)

No Category

The only page on UOGuide which will not be into a category is the main page. This is done intentionally in case anyone asks why it isn't done. The reason is sort of difficult to explain, but simply it does not need to be categorized. - JC the Builder 16:00, 22 February 2007 (PST)

Requiring Registration for Changes

Unfortunately it looks like that bots have finally made their way to UOGuide and are posting all their spam links. At this moment it appears the only option is to require registration in order to edit or add new pages. I will look into making this change tomorrow. -- JC the Builder 21:06, 29 April 2007 (PDT)

Update: The change has been made. All users must now login to create or edit pages. - JC the Builder 20:39, 30 April 2007 (PDT)

If anyone wants to update front page let me know

I don't have enough time to keep the Main Page up to date lately. Most of it is out of date by a couple weeks. If you want to help keep it updated just reply here or on my user page or whatever and I will give you the access needed. Any current OPs can feel free to update it if they wish. - JC the Builder 19:02, 23 May 2007 (PDT)

Making UOGuide more

Branching off from the old UO.com way of adding quips to the top of some monster pages, I thought it would be a nice way to extend that to UOGuide. So on major pages like the one for Houses, a quick joke or saying is added in italics. I think it adds a interesting little feature.

Anyway, people can feel free to add their own to any page which does not have one. Only one per page. If you have any suggestions for stuff like this or anything to make the site more interesting or fun, please make them. - JC the Builder 07:41, 17 September 2007 (PDT)

Changing Upcoming Event Section

The upcoming events section is almost never updated. I think it would be better to turn that box into a section where important information can be located such as the latest patch version, latest expansions, etc. Basically information that someone might want to know. It would also help free up space in the UO news section which gets a lot of updating. If anyone has suggestions for information to place there, either add a comment here or UOGuide administrators can feel free to add their ideas directly. - JC the Builder 13:19, 27 November 2007 (PST)
