Krzyszp:

I don't see a whole heck of a lot here, and almost all the pages that do exist have no content. Even the logo is "Set $wgLogo to the URL path to your own logo image." .. ?

A bit early to go around advertising to Digg and other places, i'd say ... in some cases bad press is bad press.

Emtpy Wiki and still an advert? I'll never come back!
:It is hardly an empty wiki. If you actually explore the site, you will see some contents like [[Battle for Wesnoth]] for example. Now, the Main Page do give an impression that the wiki is empty, that's entirely my fault.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 22:12, 14 August 2007 (EEST)

==Structuring the main page==
Theoretically all the List names are wrong, as subjects don't get capitalized in English and they are not own names. wikipedia has it's list also correctly named ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open_source_games ) think about it, It's not important for me, but might be for someone --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 15:57, 25 August 2007 (CEST)

Also: maybe lists should be ordered alphabetically --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 15:59, 25 August 2007 (CEST)

You should add a list of licenses --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 18:27, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
:Ok, I will..make it alphabetically ordered and then a license page.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 19:00, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
::What about the uppercase thingey? ( third post on the page) --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 19:02, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
:::Well. Do you want to do it or not? I am indecisive here.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 19:07, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
::::Try it out (preview) if it looks ok, do it. --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 19:14, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
:::::Ok, I am doing it.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 19:15, 26 August 2007 (CEST)
::::::nice --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 19:36, 26 August 2007 (CEST)

==Structuring again==
It might be good to place the lists at the top and the news at the bottom (just saw that layout at http://ecksdee.sourceforge.net/wiki/wiki/Main_Page and thought it's good. --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 05:07, 27 August 2007 (CEST)
:Restructuring finished. Happy?--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 20:43, 28 August 2007 (CEST)
::Yeah looks good, you don't have to agree with everything I ask you to do ;) --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 21:32, 28 August 2007 (CEST)
:::I just happen to agree with you so far. :P--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 21:50, 28 August 2007 (CEST)
::::All right :D --[[User:77.177.23.69|77.177.23.69]] 11:19, 29 August 2007 (CEST)
::Also something i saw on the page: We use the word Free, which is easy to misunderstand, free libre makes it clear, I should get into this and read about the term --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 05:09, 27 August 2007 (CEST)

== Ads ==

Is there any way to get rid of those annoying ads whenever I view the site without Adblock? --[[User:141.201.123.161|141.201.123.161]] 12:48, 29 August 2007 (CEST)
:I'm afraid not :( --[[User:77.177.23.69|77.177.23.69]] 14:59, 29 August 2007 (CEST)

==Restructuring Part 3==
It is time to restructure the wiki's main page into a full fledge portal. This portal shall show the best this wiki has to offer and impress the visitors. We're going to model the main page on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_ English Wikipedia's main page]. I think just "Article of the Week" and "In The News" should be the main contents of the wiki. The rest such as wiki news and topics should stay or restructured. Please help us at [[Libregamewiki:Main_page/work]]. Thanks.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 00:33, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

could you have category's for what platform each of these are available? window$ *nix etc.

== No Freeware? ==

The first line reads: "No Freeware." Then later: "Just pure Free games!." Isn't a free game freeware?

:A free game is freeware, a Free game is a Free/libre and open source game.. --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 17:39, 7 September 2007 (CEST)
::PS: plz change Free to Free/libre, at least on the main page. People get it confused..

== Custom Sidebar ==

If the moderator wants to change the sidebar (the bit that says "navigation, main page, community portal" etc), you can change http://libregamewiki.org/MediaWiki:Sidebar [[User:218.215.2.129|218.215.2.129]] 16:52, 7 September 2007 (CEST)
:thx for the hint! --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 17:43, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

== Other languages ==

Maybe we start edition in foreign languages too? (I'm from Poland and I can help in translation to polish). --17:25, 7 September 2007 (CEST)[[User:Krzyszp|krzyszp]]
:Would be kind of cool. Does the wiki support multiple languages? --[[User:Qubodup|Qubodup]] 17:37, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

I thing so ;-)
