Needs reorganising

The entire wiki is a bit messy, organisation-wise. I've been meaning to restructure it..I just have more important things to do first. -- EvilSeph 22:40, 1 February 2011 (EST)

I can help restructure it if you would like, just explain how you need it restructuring -- Chris Ward - BukkitWiki Volunteer Admin 22:50, 1 February 2011 (EST)

Also, should all the French pages be renamed to English Page Name/fr as the pages will be better organised there too -- Chris Ward - BukkitWiki Volunteer Admin 03:48, 2 February 2011 (EST)

Yes. That's how things should be done. -- EvilSeph 01:23, 3 February 2011 (EST)

Maybe English Page Name/fr should redirect to /fr/French Page Name? -- Chris Ward - BukkitWiki Volunteer Admin 05:16, 3 February 2011 (EST)

Broken Download Link

The Craftbukkit current build link goes to a 404 error. --Kiodane 16:13, 17 February 2011 (EST)

I've posted on the forums, should be fixed soon. Verox 18:07, 17 February 2011 (EST)

This has been updated. Selbram 20:07, 17 February 2011 (EST)

New Plugin Page Naming Style

I don't really like the new style for the naming of plugins (Page)-Plugin. Can it be changed back or to something less ugly?

Main Page need protection?

Should the main page be protected, and have a main page sandbox for people to edit, and update it regularly? -- Chris Ward - Volunteer Admin (Report Spam) 06:41, 6 March 2011 (EST)

Really, nobody should have a need to edit the main page as all the links are done through templates, however, protecting it might hinder any updates that do need to take place (i.e. A notice needs putting up.) Seeing as nobody is vandalising the Wiki there isn't much need to protect the page. Verox 15:36, 6 March 2011 (EST)

Logo

I don't really like the logo centered when the rest of it is lef aligned, can it be moved out of the box or left aligned again pls? Chris Ward - Volunteer Admin (Report Spam) 09:08, 11 March 2011 (EST)

Changed "Latest Download" section

It now shows build number to make it easier for users of CraftBukkit/Bukkit to know what they're downloading. I am currently looking into ways to make it automatically update. Does it look ok?

Subpages

Apparently the use of subpages on normal wiki pages is disabled on MediaWiki by default. But this seems like a handy feature to actually enable to me. ArmEagle 15:38, 27 March 2011 (EST)

I recommend you post this on the TODO list too -- Chris Ward - Volunteer Admin (Report Spam) 07:30, 30 March 2011 (EST)

Disable numbering in TOC

We've used this on another MediaWiki I have used too, the option (per page) to disable automatic numbering of the Table of Contents (__toc__). This requires editing of the wiki's main CSS files but then easily allows someone to disable the numbering by surrounding the __toc__ tag with a classed div tag to apply the CSS rule that hides the TOC numbers.

I should have read the main page better, since I didn't know about that page. Thanks, I posted these two requests there too. ArmEagle 16:28, 30 March 2011 (EST)
