== TOC class changes and main page proposal 2 ==
With the new update to 1.23, it looks like the formatting for the TOC class has been changed. Specifically, there's now no more padding around text. This doesn't affect the actual table of contents in pages, but a lot of people have been inappropriately using id="TOC" in their templates and even class=TOC is not as good as class=infobox or class=toccolours (a copy basically of the old TOC class).

This page has been truncated to include only discussions from 2012 onward. Old discussions are found here. --Wolf /talk page 01:55, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Possible improvement.

I noticed that you require a certain amount of contributions before you can become a Admin, however the amount required is difficult to count using the 'My contributions' screen. As a possible solution to this you might want to check out [1] .

What kind of Category?

I wasn't sure what kind of category to use for this page (outside of the ship category), so I'm holding off: http://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Discovery_Deck_8_Section_37_Compartment_7 DCody 03:06, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Revamped front page

I propose we more prominently display the links to the ships on the main page. Something like this. Thoughts? Also, is there a way to modify the upload page so that a warning can be added that advises users that a new version of a file takes time to appear on the live server? We could reduce redundant uploads that way. –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 05:58, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, don't worry about the ship icons. Already working on it. :D I'll keep you updated. –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 06:20, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
Updated. New Luna class image and lighter purple background for the entire box. –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 08:03, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
Well, the space really just depends on the user's screen resolution. How about centering the SB118 image? –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 23:59, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
Another take: centered below the text.Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 06:43, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
First sentence as headline.Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 05:19, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Bump. ;) –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 17:04, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

New layout

Version 2.Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 07:15, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry. Basically, for each new row that needs to be added, if there are at least 3 new ships, good. If 2 new ships, then add the Centris as the third. If 1 new ship, add the Centris and a generic ship icon with a link to the Ship Histories page. –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 20:21, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Multiple Image template

Have we used one of these? For example, the Example with Background Color over at the big daddy [2] - I'm playing around with an idea to group three (capacity up to seven) images together on an existing page (mine) and not sure if I would have to create this template here or not. DCody (talk) 01:11, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Multiple User Accounts

Howdy Fleet Admiral, I have been going through older wiki pages and found that one of the members of the Tiger-A crew has two accounts for the wiki. He stated that he no longer wishes to use this profile but wants this profile to remain active. How should I proceed? Lance (talk) 17:48, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

Proposed update to main page

What do you think of updating the main page to match the style of the various subpages with the pseudo-LCARS look:

TOC class changes and main page proposal 2

With the new update to 1.23, it looks like the formatting for the TOC class has been changed. Specifically, there's now no more padding around text. This doesn't affect the actual table of contents in pages, but a lot of people have been inappropriately using id="TOC" in their templates and even class=TOC is not as good as class=infobox or class=toccolours (a copy basically of the old TOC class).

You can see the main page has also changed as well. I removed the extra bar on my proposal for the main page. I think it actually looks cleaner now than the current Main Page. Let me know what you think: User:Rich/Sandbox

Anyway, for the TOC changes, the easiest thing would be to figure out how to change the TOC back to the old styling.
