| − | Hey, here are some ideas to make the main page somewhat smaller.
| + | ==Info Box== |
| − | | + | This is a first prototype of an info-box for city (and country?) articles like the ones you know from wikipedia. Might be nice to visit an article and find a direct info-box with the most important information - maybe number plate, which region/state, ....? highways? what else? your suggestions needed! :-) [[User:platschi|platschi]]<small><sup>[http://hoerstel.travelblog.ch site], [[user talk:platschi|wikitalk]]</sup></small> 16:53, 4 December 2007 (CET) |
| − | For this version, I directly imported the text of the templates into the site. That can be arranged later, but for now it's easier to add/edit stuff. Only News are not touched. This are my points:
| |
| − | * Header smaller
| |
| − | * Instead of 20+ links at the beginning we should write a small welcome text and lead the new hitchhiker through a sort of ''first-aid hitchhiking guide''. this can be a start page with an good overview of all the different topics he can learn something about. ( Boats, Plane-hitching, safety, etc....)
| |
| − | ** Might also be good for a sort of ''first aid kit for helping the wiki'' or something like that.
| |
| − | * The pictures are now next to each other, safes a lot of space down to the wiki. otherwise useres have to scroll down for years, looks not nice. Also looks totally different in each browser ( IE ≠ Firefox ≠ Safari ≠ Opera :-( )
| |
| − | * Rearranged the countries. Deleted some states of the US and Canada. If we add them, then all (or all 5-6 regions like mid-west, east, westcoast, etc.) or nothing. should take care with african countries, there are a lot to come in the future (hopefully).
| |
| − | * Size of text with the ''general info''. Bigger? I like it with 88% - 90% font size.
| |
| − | * Hitchhiking Button as a start of text. maybe also next to the "news" header?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Any other suggestions? Add, edit and play around as much as you want! Let's create the best wiki main page in the world :-)

| − | I would not remove the General stuff, because it's important for navigating, neither the hitchhikers-box, because it give people more of a community feeling.
| |
| − | I think we should move both of them more to the end of the page.
| |

| − | Maybe we should put the pictures more to the top of the page but smaller), because it makes the page more colorful, more welcoming.
