Index
Shouldn't the mane page contain an index. As it stands I see no clear center; a nexcus, a list of all the games. What the strategy wikis goals and what it is about. Seems more likely to be an about page.
- There are links to categories that contain the categorized guides on the main page. Right under all the goals. --Hack 19:48, 6 January 2006 (PST)
Screenshot of the day suggestion
I know it's some shameless self-publicity, but could my Image:css_cs_office_overview_general.png image be used as a screenshot of the day? I've just worked for quite a while to make it, and there isn't a screenshot of the day on the main page at the moment anyway. --DrBob 14:37, 22 May 2006 (PDT)
Links
Currently, the links to StrategyWiki:Collaboration of the Month and StrategyWiki:Promising Guide of the Month look really ugly. Basically, instead of
[[StrategyWiki:Promising Guide of the Month]]
have something more like
[[StrategyWiki:Promising Guide of the Month|Promising Guide of the Month]]
So? What do you think? -- RovingRoflguy
- Done (I think). -- Prod 00:13, 8 October 2006 (CDT)
- Great! --RovingRoflguy 05:57, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Bypass Redirect
check out an example of our system in action should point to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/The Beginning instead of a redirect. --inarius(T) 20:37, 18 October 2006 (CDT)
Wording on introduction
Since people have to register in order to edit pages, the introduction text of
"The guides here can be edited by anyone, so feel free to jump in and improve something!"
seems a bit misleading. Perhaps the words "jump in and improve something" can be linked to the register page? --blendmaster 13:19, 3 July 2007 (CDT)
- What about the exclamation mark?--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 14:36, 3 July 2007 (CDT)
- It doesn't matter to me. --blendmaster 13:53, 5 July 2007 (CDT)
Ordering of systems
I think it would be better if the order of systems on the main page was in alphabetical order, e.g.:
Systems (all systems): DS, GBA, GameCube, PC, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PSP, Wii, Xbox, Xbox 360

- Done--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 15:25, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
- I like it alphabetically, however Wii does NOT fit well before Xbox. Weird... --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 22:29, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
Genres location
Why not set it underneat the A-Z and statistics? That way we'll have a pyramid effect (why are they at the top anyways?). This is, of course, for when we switch to the systems in graphical form. --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 19:49, 8 August 2007 (CDT)
- Looks good on 800x600+ resolutions, sadly the lower ones have to deal with double rows (doesn't matter the location). --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 18:15, 9 August 2007 (CDT)
SW is not ready to show off
The DPL list and the redesigned system browser are two very nice additions, but they reveal where StrategyWiki is lacking most (especially the system browser.) Until StrategyWiki is ready to show off, are the new additions really going to help us impress readers with more red links?--Dan 20:24, 10 August 2007 (CDT)
