[edit] Regulating dumb, or stupid ideas ?

Some ideas are, quite obviously, stupid. This wiki needs to come up with some kind of standard, like a no-stupid-ideas POV, like any other wiki, to keep the quality of the ideas high enough to make things people come up with actually usable. --Nerd42 19:34, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I totally agree, and I think I will create a page containing some kind of "policy" on this. I know I am no admin, but since nobody handled this by now (1 month later), I think that it is more than appropriate to do. --Jerome Baum 16:40, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

See Idea Wiki:Policies (setting it up right now) --Jerome Baum 16:45, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Featured idea(s) ?

Good, popular, well-documented ideas ought to be featured on the front page periodically. --Nerd42 21:16, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I agree 100% a series of 5 or so articles that have lots of words, or could be expanded more should definatly be Featured on the Front page!Does any one know the code to have it rotate articles ever once in a while? - user: Swerty

You can use this:

<choose>
<option>Snippet from article 1</option>
<option>Snippet from article 2</option>
<option>Snippet from article 3</option>
</choose>

which displays as:

Snippet from article 3

[edit] Displaying Ideas on Main Page of Wiki Ideas

Why not display Ideas on the Main Page of this Article so new-comers can see what this is all about right away, instead of linking to them. Or perhaps another idea would be to have two columns of "featured" or "typical" ideas on the front page to show examples, then have a link for the full display of all the Ideas. In other words, make the Main Page of the "Wiki Ideas" Article more exciting. What do you think of these ideas?--Doug Coldwell 23:56, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

I love it, we just need to get the code to work. Let's get this Front Page more interesting!!!!Swerty 22:20, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
