In Progress
- Preference: The magic spell pic doesn't look quite right to me. --Legate (talk) 17:43, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- You did a great job finding button icons to match the color/feel of each page! The only one I would consider swapping is maybe the Power of the Dragon Father for Lion's Shield of Courage. It has reasonably close colors, fits the Castle theme for this page better and is a shield to match the Artifact on the hota menu.
Complete
- At risk of reigniting a debate I found on a talk page somewhere...I don't think Forge should be listed with the other towns as it isn't playable in-game
- I've done the new towns menu and have left out Forge, at least for now. 14:36, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Oh yeah...a towns tab. Lol great idea. I never thought of that either... --Legate (talk) 14:39, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- This also solves the very important issue of how you had 1 background from each expansion, but not AB :)
- Maybe overlay the town name on its picture?#
- Maybe consider putting both Hota towns on the same line (and denoting that these are hota) and centering the conflux town?
- Swap placement of towns on right to match the recently updated town placement (i.e. good towns are 1st column instead of 1st row)
- Add links/bottom text from current Main page
- Evaluate whether we have the right links down bottom. Maybe a few more high-level/interesting/high-traffic pages? Maybe a goal is that we can navigate to all pages on the wiki via some chain of clicks from the main page?
- Adventure Map
- Cheats
- Did you know?
- Maybe organize the cut content stuff into a single hierarchy and link here
- With regards to the above, I'll have a think about how to integrate that in a way that looks presentable other than just throwing text at the page. I'll come up with something, haha 14:36, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Done now in a second extras menu. 16:53, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Looks good. Have you considered combined the 2 extras menus (2 columns like the town menu), or do you think that would look to cluttered? --Legate (talk) 17:39, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe instead just change the "Extras 1 Menu" to something like "Modding"? Not sure the right title.
