Sidebar
Under "help" wouldn't add a lot of additional links, rather we should do as you suggested and rework the help page itself so it's more of an index than an article.
I would leave the "Editing help" link as it's a useful quick reference guide for wiki mark up --LadyShelley 16:55, 17 January 2009 (GMT)
Random Page
- Is the "Random page" link one that users find useful? --LadyShelley 22:39, 17 January 2009 (GMT)
- I personally don't but it may amuse a random minded visitor who wants to just play around. Aquinas 22:42, 17 January 2009 (GMT)
- I find I use it sometimes when I come across an interesting wiki (like ours!). It's fun to just click on it and see what pops up as a way of exploring. --Jblumel 00:04, 18 January 2009 (GMT)
I have been having a lot of fun with the Random Page link since I discovered this Wiki. However, as time goes on, I find that it is taking me to pages I have already read. But it has been a lot of fun.

search and toolbox
I am presuming that the current search and toolbox lists will not be changed by this proposal, i.e. they are still there? Aquinas 22:26, 17 January 2009 (GMT)
- Yes, the search and toolbox sidebars are not affected by this, they are controlled by other settings, and, with the toolbox, what sort of page you are on. This setting allow you to define what appears above the search, and organize it into multiple boxes. --Jblumel 00:04, 18 January 2009 (GMT)
