so, because there is little thing happening ingame a page dedicated to it should be removed ? bullshit!! game events should remain in the page even if it is kept two years without an update! People should be encoraged to use it, rather than making it harder for them to edit it --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 19:45, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

I think I might be a little lost. When I fall, I'll weep for happiness 19:48, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
Oh, my(!) Should we cycle old things that have no use in order to keep the wiki current? It's not like we do it for suggestions, groups, admin cases, suburb news and er... everything else on this fucking wiki.
Stop being butthurt and go cry to some people that give a shit. If anything, the user hub and the community portal should both come off it as well because they're both pointless now and the news section should be changed to the game's news url given it's in the game section (the map is an obvious exception as the game doesn't have a full one). -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge!

I was thinking of removing CP too, but with UHub I like to think that it may still be of some use even though I don't personally use it. I like the idea of changing news tbh. -- 22:22, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
Hagnat, call me naive and reactionary, but seriously, weren't you the guy who pushed most of current events when it was in its prime? I'm hoping I'm wrong, because that would mean that once again you're only trying to save something I am purging simply because you made it, regardless of the merits of its removal. -- 22:22, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I only used to update it during mall tours (the first two), and did a really poor job there. And looking at the page you'll notice that they look like only a footnote there. I did asked goebi to make a nice layout for it when he was creating all those fancy pages in his Style Up! Project, but other than that i had little involvment in that page. So, yeah, you are wrong about it. And you not only removed it from the sidebar, but you forgot to add it somewhere on the main page where people could access it. I had a hard time finding somewhere that had a link to it. Like i said, you are making it harder for people to use a page that should be used more. --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 23:45, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Should be used more, but isn't. Notice A/A. Nice little battle just occurred with plenty of work in the wiki page, yet nothing added onto the Current Events page. Same goes for several events and users chose to overlook Current Events in the last few years. Pretty sure its usefulness is long dead. -- 02:20, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
So, because a wiki centric page is edited far more often than a game centric page, the second should be removed ? Shees. Last time i checked, this was supposed to be a game's tool of information... and i fully expect the horde of trolls yelling that the game is dead --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 03:42, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Funnily enough, all of this isn't because the game is dead. It's cause that page is. Death is natural hagmeister, don't fight it... -- 09:47, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

reboot

Added skills, hoping no one objects to it. The idea came, ironically, from local retard Zombieman. If anyone does have a problem, I'm more than happy to discuss here (which is what I probably should have done in the first place but it isn't really hurting anyone like this). If anyone has any other ideas of important pages to add, feel free? -- LEMON #1 10:20, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

I Think the order should go News, Map, Skills Personally. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:24, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
Yeah. I didn't wanna move anything around, cause I figured the users would be used to them being in the specific order they've been in for the last year (especially maps, which I imagine is used more than most) but I'm up for changing them if you think there's a better order. -- LEMON #1 12:30, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
I'm fine with it. I thought the idea was good at first but after sleeping on it realized that Skills is not the most high traffic or even important pages around. Its kind of one of those things that after you see it, commit it to memory, you rarely go back to it. I did however read it A LOT when I started and do still go back to it as reference so I have no problem with it being on the sidebar. ~Vsig.png 15:09, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Clean and Sexy

Ignoring the ridiculous header, Are there any objections to this. At current almost all of that content is duplicated on the main page which is the page the game itself links anyway. The whole The Game section basically is preventing the sidebar from seeing more reasonable navigational use for things not already, or that shouldn't be, on the main page. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 03:26, 9 October 2012 (BST)
