This front page needs to be redesigned to be more useful.

One problem is that it claims to have a list of categories, but it's actually a list of pages that list other pages. "Categories" have a special meaning in MediaWiki related to adding category tags at the bottom of an article. The main page's link to a "complete category list" is the real category list, as understood by the wiki's database. The lists... need to be called something else.

I do think it's useful to have links on the front page linking to lists of toylines, TV shows, comic series/publishers, etc.. It just needs to be presented differently. I don't at the moment have a good idea for how to do it, though.

Reverted, because our Wiki is not >Beeping< stupid.


I propose a site name change to 'The Witwicky Transformers Wikipedia'.

I hate the image above the Search field. I especially hate that clicking on it does nto direct me to, say, the advanced search page, but instead the front page. But mostly I think it fits horribly witht he page, and my eye 'trips' over it and has to re-orient itself every time i go over to click int he search field. "Uh, okay, right, gotta be sure not to click on that."

I just find it... unfriendly. Other opinions? -Derik 12:55, 29 March 2006 (UTC)


Basically like the main page revision. But, aren't "Universe" and "Timelines" intended to be the same continuity?--G.B. Blackrock 23:53, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

I have no idea. If they are, feel free to remove one of them, but I've never followed either of the comics, so I wouldn't know. --Suki Brits 00:16, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Sort of? Timelines is basically a spin of of Universe in... another Universe. It'll probably be easier to keep it its own continuity for clarity's sake. - Vanguard
