[edit] {{main popular}} is back
{{main popular}} is back. (Good work Wub). To make room, I removed {{main around}}, as its really least useful (links are elsewhere). Originally it was a nothing else fits here type of thing anyways (I believe, could be wrong). The other alternative is kill {{main historical}} (Which was originally introduced to replace {{main popular}} when it died). I kind of like {{main historical}} though. A third alternative is to make {{main historical}} and {{main popular}} swap in and out with each other randomly. Thoughts? Bawolff ☺☻ 23:13, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- I think we should leave {{main around}} out completely, it really didn't serve any useful function (all the links are present in the sidebar, so it's kinda redundant). I like the "This day in..." template, i'd rather we kept that. Tempodivalse [talk] 23:15, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- I like {{main historical}} too, and think we can live without {{main around}}. the wub "?!" 18:59, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Review
Somebody should look at Republican leads race to fill Ted Kennedy's vacated Senate seat. It's been awaiting review for a long time. --William Saturn (talk) 19:18, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
- I'd rather not mainly due to the fact I'd have to wade through all those sources despite not really knowing the finer points of US politics. Hopefuly someone will get it soon - you might want to ask on #wikinews. One thing I noticed on it, though: the word 'fillibusters' should either be changed or explained, folk outside the States may well not know what you mean by that.

- I apologize if this was an improper venue, but I did not know where to ask. Generally I've noticed that reviews on wikinews are quicker, although it has been awhile since I've been on here.--William Saturn (talk) 19:39, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

- It's not really improper; although I guess the misc. section of WN:WC would be better. If you whine at people in IRC someone tends to do it. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 19:42, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Graphic design
If I have a question or suggestion about the graphic design of this page, would I discuss it here?71.224.206.164 (talk) 05:37, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, presuming this is directly related to the Main Page. --The New Mikemoral ♪♫ 05:41, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Order of templates
Shouldn't we have the original reporting, recent interviews and popular articles templates on the top three of the six templates and the other three at the bottom? I would've thought that it would be better to draw attention to the first-hand journalism, exclusive interviews and popular articles that many people are reading at the moment. Any comments? Suggestions? --Rayboy8 (my talk) (my contributions) 00:18, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
