Site notice

Hi,

I don't know whether you have seen my idea for an automatic import, but as you're quite active here, I'd thank you if you could take a look. I don't want to start uploading lots of pages without wider consent. Maybe you could even include a link to that section in MediaWiki:Sitenotice? --SlashMe (talk) 10:11, 3 August 2012 (EDT)

Have you seen {{comicbox}}? I'm not sure, but I wonder if your page and that one are two different ideas of how to present the same information? (Once it's imported, anyway.) At any rate, if you give me the text you want put in the Sitenotice, I'll take a look at it. (May not get to it today; you can always ask a different admin if I don't.) --Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} 20:06, 3 August 2012 (EDT)

Should I put something in the editnotice saying we need to agree on formats first? Or do you think it'd be better to upload them so we at least have something and then use a bot (I can task AWB to do that, once I figure out a few regular expressions) to convert your uploads to whatever format we end up deciding on? --Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} 20:19, 3 August 2012 (EDT)

Hmm... I suppose I can pair the editnotice with a message at MediaWiki:Uploadtext. --Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} 20:41, 3 August 2012 (EDT)

I think this is no longer necessary now that we have centralized talk pages at the community portal. And since I'm administrator by now, I could do it myself ;-) --SlashMe (talk) 03:35, 4 August 2012 (EDT)

community portal

Shouldn't the __NEWSECTIONLINK__ be included in {{Community portal}}? --Waldir (talk) 05:20, 4 August 2012 (EDT)
