Radio/Group Massacre

It's been over four months and people are still adding themselves to this. It's annoying and it isn't the page that's templated onto the Radio page. I've stuck a notice up on the top and it would be good if it was protected to reinforce the point (people can still use the talk page for questions, and I'll request unprotection when we do it again.)

New DangerMap Stuff

Protect:

These require no further editing and need protection from the usual vandalism to cripple the maps or spread misinformation.

Unprotect:

Still in use in a few places, but no longer significant enough to warrent protection. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 17:21, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

All done. Linkthewindow  Talk  23:02, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

A few of my archives and userpage templates

Just requesting permission to protect all my talk page archives, some templates that are on my userpage, and my sig.

Thanks. Linkthewindow  Talk  09:36, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Clarification, the "templates that are on my userpage" are in my subspace. More specifically, the ones that control the tabs, and the ones that add content to the page on the sidebars.
So that's every template on my userpage except Template:Projectwelcome2 and Template:Science. Linkthewindow  Talk  09:41, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Did I everything you wanted? --ZsL 15:56, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Almost.get I'll get the rest later. Linkthewindow  Talk  20:14, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Finished off the pages that ZS missed. Linkthewindow  Talk  09:46, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

MediaWiki:Common.css

This is simply to poke a bit of discussion about removing the "Main Page" title on the Main Page. It's done over at Rationalwiki by a CSS hack, and the same can be done here. I raised it at the Main Page discussion, but it was pretty much ignored.

Anyway, basically, this request involves adding this:

body.page-Main_Page #siteSub,
body.page-Main_Page #contentSub,
body.page-Main_Page h1.firstHeading {
    display: none !important;
}

To our MediaWiki:Common.css. Thoughts? Linkthewindow  Talk  06:43, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh and thanks to Midianian for finding the CSS Linkthewindow  Talk  06:45, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

I'll approve of this edit to the Common page, but I will leave it to you (or other sysop "in the know") to do the actual editing, so that if any minor tweaks, or special placement on the page is needed, you can fix it as you go (without back and forth discussion). As long as it works ;) -- boxy talkteh rulz 10:10 17 March 2009 (BST)

Done. Linkthewindow  Talk  09:36, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Template:CPBox

I forgot to add an edit link and make a direct link on the "go to community portal" part. Copy the code from here.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 20:15, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Done. Linkthewindow  Talk  20:47, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Multiple templates

The follow should be fully protected, as there is no use to edit them except to vandalize: Template:NBox, Template:CPBox, Template:NewsItemGreen and Template:NewsItemWhite. Although Kevan hasn't implemented the changes yet from the semi-protection policy, these should be semi-protected as there isn't a use for a newbie to edit these two: Template:Community Portal and Template:Wiki News.

The uncreated pages will have to be protected after the request below is processed, thanks. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Done. Linkthewindow  Talk  11:33, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Main Page, Template:Navigation, Template:Wiki News and more...

Summary

This will change the main page to look like this. Among the obvious new look, the change also adds a CP section and numerous code fixes (such as getting rid of the ugly white curved edges). The new design was discussed on the talk page, and after many changes from user input to get as much support as possible, it's ready. The last concern in the latest discussion was on the colours being too bright, which was fixed by making them all darker. Some of the pages will look broken, but this is because I've removed my user sub pages and added the to-be templates. All you need to do is copy+paste.

Please do these changes in quick succession, otherwise it'll confuse a lot of people.

Changes required

If I've missed anything, or there's any questions, let me know. Thanks.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it might be better if you put the substed version in first, then change the templates (to make sure it works) then replace with the templated main page. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 16:39, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
Someone forgot a bulk of the news bar colours of Community Portal. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 11:29, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Done. The discussion at the main page talk seemed roughly in favor of this. If there are any problems, I've made a thread on the main page's talk. Linkthewindow  Talk  11:33, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Looks all in order. The Community Portal pages is going to be gutted completely, then redone. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 16:22, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Protection Request

Hello i wouldlike to request that my signature page be protected so it will not be touched/ruined. User:Fanglord2/sig thanks in advance. Chairman Fanglord, 18:28, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Counter request. The signature breaks policy and should not be protected until it conforms. The image is too high and the overall height (23px from the looks of the code) could interfere with line spacing. From a minor pedantry standpoint, you could also cut the coding by a third and still get the same effect. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 19:11, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
Is this sorted, and can be protected? Linkthewindow  Talk  10:52, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Still long-winded, but it doesn't break policy. Fine by me. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 17:20, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Alright, done. Linkthewindow  Talk  03:33, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

User:Hagnat/sig

In order to save the server some effort. Please replace the page with:

<noinclude>{{User:Hagnat/sig/A}}
</noinclude>[[User:Hagnat|People's Commissar Hagnat]] <sup>[[User_talk:Hagnat|[cloned]]] [[Special:Listadmins|[mod]]]</sup><noinclude>
{{User:Hagnat/sig/B}}</noinclude>

Permission & discussion here. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 19:50, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

the second template should be 'sig/B', not 'sig/A', right ? --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 18:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Yup. My bad. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 18:54, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Done. Linkthewindow  Talk  10:59, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
