Hi! The link to the Wikipedia in Spanish should be in "More than 100,000 articles" instead of "More than 20,000 articles". It has more than 170,000 articles. Thanks. --Kokoo 08:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Someone had mixed up Esperanto and Espanol. I've swiched the two, and both Wikipedia en español and Esperanto should now be listed in their right place. Thanks for spotting it! Shanes 10:29, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

How do you start a new category? xx

Just edit the page, and add supercategories to it. Ideally, every category should form part of a tree, so Category:Politicians from Turin would be categorised under Category:Natives of Turin and Category:Italian politicians, for example. In the future, you may find you get quicker/more helpful responses to such questions if you ask them on the Help Desk. GeeJo ^(t)⁄_(c) • 16:25, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Today's Featured Article says "Igor Stravinsky was a Russian-born composer....." Was he not still a Russian when he died (despite working/living in several countries)? Would it be better to change it (and the main article) to read "Igor Stravinsky, émigré Russian composer.....?. Moriori 22:56, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

well, i think it would be a good idea if there was also a primary school and secondary school addition. To you get my idea? (I'm calling it primary and secondary school by Australian terms)

why all versions of the "Main Page" have been removedall of a sudden?? Synchronicity I 17:51, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

The list in question did not contain anywhere near "all versions," and it's because of this misconception that it was removed. Please see #Provide a way to get to all the Wikipedias. —David Levy 17:57, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Why isn't there a QotD section on the front page? Didn't there use to be one?

Uhh I don't recall there ever being a QoTD section. Maybe you're thinking of WikiQuote? Nishkid64 00:37, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia is getting close to having 1,500,000 articles! What do you think the 1,500,000th article will be? Voortle 18:11, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

We're 250 away. I'm going to F5 and look at the NewPages to see what it is. Nishkid64 18:50, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Scratch that idea. Most of the articles are speedy deleted, so it would be mighty hard to find which article will be #1,500,000. Nishkid64 18:55, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I think I should just let you know that there is no longer a searching option on the main page. User:David Levy removed it here. Is it supposed to be missing?--Tom^{I edit my userpage too much}, 18:41, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

The searching menu item has been replaced with Contents as per previous discussions. There IS still a searching option in the side bar. Contents is a much more helpful list of ways of broseing WP content rather than a redundant seaching item. --Monotonehell 00:49, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Also note that I recently added a Wikipedia:Searching link to the search results page. —David Levy 04:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Should we put up a main page banner for 1,500,000 articles? I was thinking something like this:

Sorry, I put up the duplicate banner. Thanks for removing it :-) --WS 21:25, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Not a problem :). Generally the main page isn't edited directly, but rather edited through templates. AmiDaniel (talk) 21:28, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

We're looking likely for Kfar Shmaryahu being 1.5m. haz (talk) e 21:24, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

It's not conclusive yet though--the contest seems to be between Kanab Ambersnail, Hotel Torni, and the one you mentioned. We won't know for sure for some time, so let's just try to stay calm :D. AmiDaniel (talk) 21:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

A 1-sentence-stub is the 1.5 millionth article? That's a great joke. --32X 21:32, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Articles are being deleted like crazy. The first "substantial" article created after 1.5m seems to be K. A. C. Creswell. haz (talk) e 21:37, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I would think the "winner" would be the 1.5 millionth, regardless of whether it's substantial or not. We can always make the hotel or mulusk article substantial, after all. --Xyzzyplugh 21:48, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Given that we delete about 1 article for every 3 that are created, it could easily be significantly earlier in the new pages log than one would otherwise expect from counting backward. Dragons flight 21:50, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

We should follow the example of the millionth article, which picked the millionth article created, whether or not articles before it were deleted or not. See this discussion--Tom^{I edit my userpage too much}, 22:24, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I really don't like the wording of this banner. Wikipedia is not separate from its contributors, so to say that "Wikipedia thanks its contributors" is a false disjunction. --Oldak Quill 00:16, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

I definitely agree. I've changed it. —Mets501 (talk) 00:50, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

I changed it from "Thank you" to "Thanks". Thank you just doesn't sound right. Nishkid64 00:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

How can you tell what number a particular article was when it was created? Like, the 1,500,000th or the 1,500,001st, etc.? (And just for historical curiosity, what was our first ever article?) — BrianSmithson 01:11, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Has anyone else noticed that occasionally an apostraphe appears on the Omega? Looks like this: 'Ω

Ω. No problems for me here. Nishkid64 01:51, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

No on the Globe icon in the very Top-Right corner of the page...

Oh, sorry. I have a personalized monobook, so I don't have that same Globe image. Anyway, I logged out, and it does appear that it looks like: 'Ω. I don't know what the point of this was, but I can tell you that the other symbols are quite strange as well. My only speculation is that it is a letter in some language (other than Greek.) Nishkid64 02:16, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Nope, it's Greek all right: an accented omega. It's very common, actually, but is usually in the lowercase form (ώ). —Mets501 (talk) 03:24, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

See Greek alphabet#Diacritics or Diacritics (Greek alphabet). Newyorkbrad 03:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

If I remember right from the ancient Greek I studied: each word staring with a vowel has an apostrophe called a "breathing mark". If it's curved to the left like a closing quotation mark it's a soft breathing mark and has no sound. Curved to the right like an opening quotation mark it's a hard breathing mark and sounds like the letter H at the beginning of the word. Also, the letter rho (ρ) at the beginning of a word always has a hard breathing mark. I can't quite see which direction the mark on the omega on the puzzle globe is going. I was going to say that "ho" is a form of the word "the" in ancient Greek, but I think it has to be spelled with omicron, not omega. Maybe it's a joke (the sound of laughter). --Coppertwig 13:00, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Please see German Wikipedia 500,000th entry. The bottom line is that it would be illogical to create a new tier for one Wikipedia. —David Levy 04:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

a new tier? i was more thinkinking of 500.000 german. its ahuge gap between more than 100.000 and 500.000 one would think--85.180.60.152 13:13, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

No, this is exactly what David Levy said. While 500k is a major achievement, until we have at least three others that have reached this level, it's fruitless to devote two whole lines of the main page to one project. End of story. -- Zanimum 18:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

When there was "50.000 or more articles", this statement was true. "100.000 or more articles" just seems to be like a logarithmic system. The start with at least 20.000 articles is only to keep a proper size since there are a lot Wikipediae with about 10.000 - 20.000 articles. Since the French Wikipedia will very soon reach the 400.000th article. That should be reflected as well. At the moment, the 100.000 is well enough.. It would make more sense mentioning at the start page that the largest 3 Wikipediae have reached new limits wihtin a few days. (And that from a guy who's mainly active at the German Wikipedia.) --32X 20:53, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

When you mouse over the links, it gives the two letter prefix that the link goes to (e.g. Français shows "fr:"). However, there are two problems with this:

1. It is not user friendly--mousing over a name in a foreign language does not give the English language equivalent for someone who is curious as to what the language is (especially important for Arabic, etc). Instead, it gives a useless two letter abbreviation.
2. Telugu bucks the trend, and instead of the two-letter abbreviation, gives the full name.

Either Telugu should be fixed, or all the mouseover texts should be changed. — Dark Shikari ^talk/_contribs 02:25, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Good idea! Just wrap the language name in span tags, as I did here for French. That should get the English word for the language and the interwiki prefix on mouseover. —Mets501 (talk) 03:56, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

As of late we have recognized that as a community, we need to focus more on quality than on quantity. Yet we continue to prominantly list the number of articles on EN (at the top, left-hand corner of the main page) while hiding the less-impressive total of Featured Articles. At the very least, we should list the two figures side by side. We're doing just fine in terms of numbers of articles but badly in terms of F.A.'s Let's stop patting ourselves on the back and start listing the number of F.A.'s on the front page. --Zantastik talk 23:27, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I won't push it; community consensus is important, and furthermore, the main page really *is* for readers, not wikipedians. The former won't know anything about featured articles, but they will be impressed with how many articles we have. Still, of course, our focus as wikipedians needs to well-written articles (FA or not), not quantity. --Zantastik talk 01:45, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

See WP:AID. There are also lots of collaborative projects for specific WikiProjects. DYK rocks! _{(I think)} Nishkid64 01:07, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

You're both right. Articles on DYK are typically around a Start class on the Article grading scheme - they're "solid", but not necessarily the best we have to offer. DYK rocks in that articles featured in the section seem to attract a lot of good contributions without the crapstorm that hits every Featured Article on the Main Page. It also works to greatly boost the enthusiasm of new editors who've had their work picked out of Special:Newpages (which is happening a lot more often recently). GeeJo ^(t)⁄_(c) • 01:56, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

True, but I'd just like to mention not all articles in DYK are start class. List of South America tropical cyclones was a list that I found in DYK that I nominated at WP:FLC. It ended up becoming featured unanimously. Tennis DyNamiTe ^{(sign in)} 02:35, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Any particular reason there isn't a link to (Wait! see below -- this isn't the link I meant) MediaWiki from the English Wikipedia Main Page, for example among Sister Projects? Is it because they don't want people going there unless they've been around long enough to find it somehow? --Coppertwig 12:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC) OK, I'm confused. That link wasn't what I meant. That was wikimedia/Meta-wiki. I meant MediaWiki -- the pages with a sunflower as the logo: MediaWiki. Wikipedia has Meta listed under Sister Projects, but not MediaWiki. How are people supposed to find MediaWiki? Or bugzilla? Maybe a link should be added. --Coppertwig 12:49, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

The link "...a non-profit organization that also hosts a range of other projects:" gets you to the list of projects which then mentions Mediawiki at the end. Is that enough? --Monotonehell 14:54, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I propose to reduce the number of links on the main page to put more emphasis on the important topics, and to make the text easier to read. So only the links that are bold at the moment should stay (as plain links). At the moment, the page is really a mess. --Nina 13:31, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm a little torn on this proposal. On one hand this is hypertext, on the other hand I agree it currently looks a little over linked. How do we decide what is "important" or not. I often click on links to get context for the main subject. --Monotonehell 14:50, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, things are over-linked compared to the rest of the Internet, but this shows how we cover every aspect of important topics. -- Zanimum 17:33, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

As long as the other links besides the bolded ones are relevant to the main links, they should remain. For example in taoday's FA (Jaws) 'Steven Spielberg' and 'Great White Shark' should remian linked, but perhaps 'Amity Island' should not be, as it is linked in the article itself as well. Only the most relevant parts deserve links. At least that's my two cents. Antimatter 21:48, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

But what if someone wants to learn about Amity Island, but thinks we don't have a seperate article on it, and gets discouraged, because they don't want to fish (no pun intended) through the article for little bits and pieces about the locale? -- Zanimum 22:06, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

If someone is looking for something, he/she will find it in wikipedia. If you show a featured article on the front page and want to show every relevant topic as well, you just spoil the message. Then you don't need the text- you could simply display a list of links. --Nina 22:55, 29 November 2006 (UTC) Zdroj:https://en.wikipedia.org?pojem=Talk:Main_Page/Archive_84
