Talk:Main Page

Style of headings

Despite the good example of Wikipedia, the CrossWire wiki uses capital letters in headings in many places where they are not needed. David Haslam 11:51, 16 September 2008 (MDT)

Wikipedia isn't our style guide. I, and I would guess many other contributors to the wiki, use standard English-language title casing for section headings. --Osk 14:06, 16 September 2008 (MDT)

Improving the Development Pane

The ideal Frontend wishlist item should be moved to become a section on a more general new page Development Roadmap. IMHO, it is too verbose to be here on the main page. Please comment. David Haslam 19:07, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks to Osk for starting to follow this up. David Haslam 21:47, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

unlisted Frontends

KIO_Sword is a URL handler for Sword project modules that makes installed modules browsable in Konqueror. This means it's Mac/Linux compatible. It's so small and functional. I'm putting it into talk instead of the main page because I don't know what the criteria for listing is. (and since I don't own it...)

Mikey, please sign talk page edits using four tilde, which get converted automatically. David Haslam 17:27, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

For anyone unfamiliar with it, here is a Wikipedia stub about the Konqueror browser. David Haslam 17:30, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Using Talk pages to discuss how to improve pages

If you have ideas or suggestions on how to improve pages on this wiki, please discuss these in the Talk page for the relevant page. Always add new Talk page headings in chronological order. Keep ongoing discussion threads indented using colons. Always sign edits to talk pages using four tilde, which gets automatically converted to your username signature with a time-stamp.

Citation extensions for Mediawiki software

We seem to lack the extended features required to support citations and references. See [1]. David Haslam 11:15, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

Jargon?

CrossWire uses a lot of jargon that may be familiar to computer programmers and the like, but which easily mystifies the typical Bible student visiting this site for the first time. Even the word Frontend is an example of such jargon. What can we do to make things easier for visitors? David Haslam 10:54, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Most of my edits today were to help the uninitiated understand what v11n means. David Haslam 19:16, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Diatheke

Why is diatheke categorized under "No longer being actively developed" ? David Haslam 17:16, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
