Main Page Templates

Is there a page for the Main Page templates I can copy for the Flash Wiki? Or is it part of the .css file?

The classes used for the Main Page templates are indeed part of the CSS file. If you wish to use this code, you'll have to attribute it to HRWiki in accordance with our creative commons deed. — Lapper (talk) 21:23, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

I promise I will. But can somebody copy the code for me? PLEASE? 63.230.104.26 22:29, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Click on CSS in Lapper's post for the CSS file itself. You can copy it from there. And, by the way, it's not really "code", it's a style sheet which styles HTML markup. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  05:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Update... March 8

Theres a new quote of the week by the KOT >.> --124.185.236.202 17:21, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! — It's dot com 19:31, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Toon:

Perhaps, for every page that has links to a Toon, it should have "Toon:". Like how it is for every toon that has a link to an email. This could help make all of the pages cleaner and presentable towards everyone that comes here.--Dr. Watson 20:48, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't think that's necessary. They're all toons. We use the email label to highlight them, for some reason. — It's dot com 20:52, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Then why not just get rid of the email label. Maybe it's just me, but I was noticing that it would look better either way. Either way meaning, also with the toon label, or with out the email label.--Dr. Watson 20:59, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Two That Need To Be Revisited

I've been checking up on HRWiki:Spoken Articles and HRWiki:Favicon for a long time now to see if anyone else cares about them besides me. Both of these projects began about a year ago, were overshadowed by other issues, and forgotten. I've been trying to get these pages noticed again (a posted note on Spoken Articles about a month ago yielded no response), but it seems they might be in limbo forever. I'd like to revisit these projects again and make the decisions that we put off. Are Spoken Articles beneficial and useful? Should we change our favicon and, if so, what to? These are unsettling questions that we shouldn't forget about. Let's not let these projects gather dust. -Brightstar Shiner 21:12, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I've been dying to help out with the Spoken Articles. We do need to bring these projects back! new sig!--TheYellowDart—(t/c) 21:48, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you! If it were socially acceptable (or even possible) to hug you, I would! Now I hope this topic doesn't get ignored or I might just have to resort to asking users in their talk pages to help me out on this one. If we start these projects up again, we can finally resolve some of these issues. By the way, your sig looks great. It changed on my userpage, too. -Brightstar Shiner 21:53, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Why, thank you. Heh heh, yeah. Just some advice though: once you get a microphone, make sure it is a headset. I have a real good headset, and it only cost me 12 dollars at Wal-Mart. Because normal mics sometimes tend to be unclear. Good jokes, TheYellowDart—(t/c) 21:59, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

The hug thing? I just say that a lot. It has nothing to do with you personally. As for the advice, thanks for it. If we can get a couple more people in here (or better yet, a couple dozen people), maybe the ball could get rolling again with these projects. -Brightstar Shiner 22:05, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I've always been confined to gnome work around here. I'd love to finally do something major, but I don't own a microphone of any kind, so I guess I could help with the Favicon thing. — ^Sam_{Fisher (Come in, Lambert.)} 18:08, 11 March 2007

<laughs> Join the club. I don't own a microphone either. But by the looks of it it should be pretty easy to get one. -Brightstar Shiner 22:16, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

I intend to pick the favicon discussion up very soon, but I think the spoken articles project fell by the wayside because it should have. — It's dot com 01:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, c'mon, Dot Com. We'll do it one day. When the Wiki is a little more wealthier. Brightstar, I know, I was just teasing you. ;-). I like the favcon as it is, actually. --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 01:44, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Dot Com, we may not actually record many articles, but this is giving us an excuse to work on the FAs to make them perfect. Once you see how great they look, maybe you'll see our point in this. As for the favicon, Yellowdart, we need to change it because of copyright reasons. -Brightstar Shiner 01:48, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Suggestions for articles

Question: does anyone think I should make some kind of article on how things like "Marshie", "Musty", and Delicious "Bag" all have quotes around a word? They are all food items, and it seems like more than just a coincidence...feedback?-- Nevadie 20:59, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

NEW EMAIL!

I new email was put up litterally like 5 minutes ago from when I am typing this. I THINK I MAY HAVE BEEN THE FIRST VIEWER TO SEE IT! WOO! It's called FUNERAL. --The Denzel 01:36, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually, it's called your funeral. I wonder if TBC had heard about the Bluffton bus accident when they made this. It really made me think of it... -Brightstar Shiner 01:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

As I have no idea what you're talking about, I think it's likely that's irrelevent to the email. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  02:02, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Umm... don't worry about it. It's most likely irrelevent and if you don't know what it is, that's a good thing. -Brightstar Shiner 02:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Problems

My friend (Supremoace970 on the HRFWiki) is having viewing problems and cannot view anything on the H*R site? Any info? Count X ^Talk _Email 07:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

• I seem to be having the same problem. Argh! The site has been giving me trouble the past couple weeks, but nothing this bad. --Positatewithoutpizzaz 08:43, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

New weeklies

There's a new Quote, Fanstuff, and sketch book. That will be all. --Collin Diver 22:33, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Homestar Runner (body of work)

I'd like to go ahead and move Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon) to Homestar Runner (body of work) soon. I'm posting here to give some visibility to the discussion linked below. — It's dot com 00:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Please direct any comments to Talk:Homestar Runner (Flash cartoon) → body of work (revisited).

This is now done. — It's dot com 08:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Note: There is a discussion on appropriate linking here.

Conjecture template

Anyone think it's time to make one of those templates that says that the title of an article isn't official? I got the idea from Wookiepedia's template, and I think it would apply to a bunch of articles, like Balding Man, Shadowy Figure, and others. Dr. Clash 20:30, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm... hesitant. I don't really like th' idea... I can't say why, but it just doesn't sit right with me. Templates aren't supposed to stay on pages for an extended period of time. --DorianGray 20:36, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't think we need it. We ought to be able to word an article such that merely reading it leaves you with the correct impression of whether the title is a name or not. We could also move those to "Balding man" and "Shadowy figure" so that it's easier to tell. — It's dot com 20:55, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Whodunnit?

Who changed the captchas? There all H*R related now. Sweet! --SD...not signed in.

April 1 Update?

Anybody spied an April Fools update yet on the main site?--AtionSong 14:22, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Nope. I think they keep updating late because of the baby. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs)

Baby? -Like, it's totally Brightstar!

Very, Very Little Girl. —BazookaJoe 16:44, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Do you still think they will update? I'm beginning to get doughtful. Homestar-winner 16:51, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

...or maybe not making an April Fool's joke is the whole joke... --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 17:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, they hardly EVER update on weekends, so I'm hoping for one tomorrow.--‪‪‪X66x66 19:03, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

UPDATED!!! TheThingé 20:23, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

• raises eyebrow* That wasn't funny...--Color Printer 20:25, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I think they'll just update tomorrow...maybe even late tomorrow.--Zephiel
