The main page

You're the one that made our main page, right? The recovered version needs fixing. --FortMax 23:58, 16 March 2009 (EDT)

I'll see what I can get done to it. (Sorry, was in power page-saving mode yesterday.) --Jeysie 18:36, 17 March 2009 (EDT)

Thanks for the recovery, but a little thing I noticed... the [''view''] link that takes you immediately to the day's page is missing. --M Sipher 10:35, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

It's hard to tell without having the original wikicode, but IIRC that's actually something to do with the "This Day in History" template itself rather than the Main Page... i.e. Derik did something where the template shows the View link if the date page is on the Main Page/transcluded anywhere (whichever is the case).

Either that, or I remembered the code wrong in how to transclude the date pages.

So I'd ask him about it first. If it turns out I did misremember something, let me know and I'll fix it - I just want to make sure our templates are fully restored. --Jeysie 20:49, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

I'm sure others will echo this, but your restoration efforts are hugely appreciated, despite the small snags mentioned just above. I only wish I'd had the time and knew what I was doing (a little experimention proved neither was true) in order to help.--Apcog 12:08, 18 March 2009 (EDT)

You're more than welcome... I'm rather proud of what we've all built here, so anything I can do to help save it, I'll gladly do.

Plus... I consider recoding the Main Page specifically to be a favor to me as well... call me biased, but I like my restructure way better than the stuck-in-the-90s-on-Geocities-esque Wikia structure. (I dunno if it's the absolute best Main Page design we could have, but I do think it's at least a big improvement over what we did have.) --Jeysie 20:49, 18 March 2009 (EDT)
