Hey Editors!

I've highlighted this discussion to let you all know what changes may be coming to the wiki soon. As a developing wiki, I'm always trying to find new way to improve the wiki and give it a boost to get the ball rolling. This weekend I'm hoping to spend some time on the wiki, so I wanted to make a to-do list for not only me but the people of the wiki as well. If you guys have any suggestions or comments on what we should to, then please feel free to leave a comment suggesting things.

1) Get the Front Page together. I've been mostly testing things lately with it, but I really want to make the Front Page warm and inviting for people coming for the first time.

2) Maybe changing the style of the wiki a bit. By this, I mean the background, the foreground color, and the style of everything. Suggestions for this are always welcome!

3) Organizing pages a bit more. This is something that everyone on the wiki can do. I would like to be able to find pages so much easier, so we need to set up a way to do that. I'll get more into detail as we progress through all these.

4) Make a set of rules for Editors/Contributers. Obviously, shipping wars are easily started by one simple comment, and I want to avoid this if possible, and I think setting up a list of rules will be good for the wiki. Once making a set of rules, I will abe going through all the comments on pages again to make sure everything follows the rules, and deleting things that do not follow them. The rules will pretain to both signed in editors and anonymous wiki contributers, just as a fair warning.

5) Getting closer as a community. This may include anything from a live chat on the wiki to contests in the forum. Suggestions are always welcome for this!

6) Expanding the forum a bit more. I feel like the forum really small right now, and it doesn't allow many ideas to come through, so expanding it will allow for a closer community and a more open website for people to join.

Comments are always welcome from anyone, so please feel free to leave any suggestions/questions/rants you may have about this. I will also be making another discussion later about rules being added to the wiki.

Thanks guys, and happy editing!
