FamilySearch Wiki:Site Design Ideas

Here are 3 Ideas for Changes to the Wiki
This is a description of the ideas. You can use the Wiki with these changes by signing in, going to your Preferences, clicking the Skins tab, and then choosing the FamilySearchWikiTest1 skin. Don’t forget to click Save. Don’t worry. If you do not like the changes, you can go to the Skins tab again and choose the FamilySearchWiki skin again.

We would like to know what you think of these ideas. Click the Discussion link for this page to let us know. Even though the 3 ideas are part of the same test skin, they do not have to all be made, depending on what people like.

1) Page Options
The page options (such as Edit, Watch, Dicussion, etc.) are commonly used by people who add information to the Wiki. It may be easier to get to these options if they were at the top of the pages instead at the top right. This is an idea for where they could go and what they might look like.
