Talk:Main Page

Gentlemen

We have come thus far; the front page is looking splendid.

I agree, though I have two gripes with it.

1) Who typed "Valve" like this for the main page links?

It should be "Valve". The uppercase version with the smaller sized "E" is just a logo, nothing more. I see things like "VALVe" and such being written entirely too often elsewhere.

2) The yellow tint color for the background of the box tables looks strange. Yellow, no matter how desaturated, isn't really in the color scheme of Portal (ignoring instances such as the yellow portal for the co-op partner and other instances). Overall it's grays, blues, blacks. Clean colors. With the overuse of the blue elements on the Wiki's theme (the logo the links etc), yellow looks out of place. -- Benjamoose (talk | contribs) 20:17, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Tried to address the colors; I'm no expert designer, so please feel free to tweak them further. I do believe it's an improvement though :3 For further reference, not all colors are on MediaWiki:Common.css; some are in style attributes on {{Main Page layout}} and {{ExtendedIndex}}.

Template

May not use this template Template:ExtendedIndex, and use the template as Team Fortress Wiki. At other languages ​​a problem with translation of this template. Namely 1 and 3 column. --Nik9990 Talk | Cont 18:37, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Then whack some langs on the end of the links like you do on other links. – Smashman _(talk) 18:56, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Ie me need to create the same template with a prefix, for example / de on a language that me need?--Nik9990 Talk | Cont 19:12, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Horosho! --Nik9990 Talk | Cont 21:14, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Should be all good now, thanks~ — Wind 21:31, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Facts

Not the place to ask, but where can i edit the currently featured facts, Richard Lord was just a placeholder for Wheatley. --Latin Geek 15:51, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Click the "Add a fact" link on the main page (just under the list) :3 — Wind 15:54, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Vector Skin glitch in IE9

Now, I can't exactly explain what's going on, but every time I've loaded this Wiki on Internet Explorer 9, it's failed to load the Vector skin altogether, until I change my user agent string to Chrome, FF, Opera, even the Bing Bot string works, but the default user agent string failed to load the skin at all. I believe it's an issue that should be looked at, since it also appears to affect IE7-IE8. --Swertmastra

Thank you for your concern; we are aware of this problem, it is caused by MediaWiki. We are awaiting the next MediaWiki patch, hopefully they will address this issue.

* A new MediaWiki patch has been released; this issue is now resolved.
