Forum:Spotlight

I suggest we request for spotlight. It could attract new users. We need to follow these:

1. The wiki should have a Welcome template for logged-in users and anonymous-IPs. Every new user should get a welcome on their talk page. Spotlights bring in new contributors, and it's very important that the community welcomes these new users, and helps them to get started. There shouldn't be any red Talk links on Recent changes. This is essential for any wiki that gets spotlighted.

2. The wiki should use the Monaco skin as the default.

3. The wiki should have at least 100 content pages, not counting stubs.

4. The wiki should have a logo.

5. The main page of the wiki should have at least one picture, and clear links to the most important content.

6. The wiki should have a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category.

6. Hard. There are many uncategorized pages. Check them. They are 332 up to the date of this post.

I think the only thing we need is point 6. In several weeks we can categorize every page, if we wish. I personally think that Spotlight would be a nice way to have new contributors... this wikia is lacking several because past users have quit. There are few than 10 active contributors right now, from what can be seen at RecentChanges. This wikia is so good to let it die.
