Main page doesn't look right?

Add Enemies Category
Should we add the enemies category to the main page. I know the page encompasses both species and characters but the baddies are one of the most fundamental aspects of Mario games. What do others think? --Son of Suns 00:17, 18 May 2006 (EDT)
 * Making a friends area would be easier since there's a lot less friendly creatures than enemies.
 * In that thinking, perhaps two categories could be added: the pre-existing Enemies category and a new Allies category. --Son of Suns 00:42, 18 May 2006 (EDT)

Community Portal
I say we create a Community Portal, which could be linked on the main page and navbar, and it would have links to help pages and community projects and such, like [HRWiki's The Stick] or [Wikipedia's portal]. S a  l  t  y T a  l  k  ! 18:33, 10 April 2006 (EDT)

I'm going with Salty.--Caff ya later, Elite Yoshi 18:42, 10 April 2006 (EDT)


 * Now that I've successfully created a welcome template at ~, we could also have a welcoming committee. That will really come in handy when we start to get active. S  a  l  t  y T a  l  k  ! 23:40, 12 April 2006 (EDT)


 * I don't really think this is a bad idea, seeing as how it's now required that you must make an account to edit/create a page. Plus, you know, it's a little more official than the home page's discussion. What could we call it that would fit in with the Mario universe, though? "The Stick" works nicely with the Homestar-wiki, and Wikipedia doesn't really have a theme. What would the SMWi's community page be called? - DarkInsanity (talk)

Italics
Should game titles be italicized? I personally don't like it, but if it's more official, we can go ahead and revert all of my hard work undoing it. S a  l  t  y T a  l  k  ! 01:14, 15 April 2006 (EDT)


 * I always thought that game titles should be italicized, just like the titles of movie and books and whatnot. Before, I had actually just made edits to pages to italicize the game titles, and maybe fix one or two spelling errors. Salty, you seem to be doing the same thing as I once did, but in reverse; you take out the italiced words and fix a couple errors, sometimes adding on a sentence or two. Besides, you know, it does look more professional. So I say we go with game title italics. - DarkInsanity (talk)
