From WikiPOBia

Below is a proposed layout for a new Sidebar. Each main level list element, marked with one '*', would be in a separate box with the main level list element as the box's title.

The "In this month" content, I would recommend adding access to directly on the Main Page, as well as posting (and eventually removing) "News" items there. (The News items could be archived to a separate News page (Current events, renamed?)) as "older news".

To propose a different Sidebar layout, copy this one to a new section on this page and make changes there. We can discuss Sidebar and Main Page changes on this page's talk page.

Note: Index as used below is perhaps not quite the right word, but I couldn't think of an alternative. The category listing isn't really an Index, but it's not a TOC either. Help contents might be an actual TOC, but I was thinking a consistent word might be better to give people an idea of what to expect, but maybe not.

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)
