There are some people around the NIWA who say Lylat Wiki is... well... pretty slow. Any suggestions on how to improve on it's speed? {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 10:39, 7 May 2011 (PDT)

I have to agree that the wiki is pretty slow, but the reason is that we lack a community. Compared to the other wikis, we have a very small user count. Star Fox just does not have a strong fanbase anymore and the current fans' only interest is to complain how the games are no longer good. My idea is that we ask some other NIWA members to help us deciding what pages are Stub-level, good, decent, etc (basically find people to be an evaluation team). We could also make contact with other sites and hope that brings traffic and users.--&mdash; <span style="font-family:Papyrus; font-size:13pt">[[User:TW|<font color=#A020F0>T</font>]] [[User Talk:TW|<font color=#A020F0>W</font>]]</span> 12:04, 7 May 2011 (PDT)

While i thought it was a good idea at the time, the WikiProjects doesn't really seem to have taken off. Should we get rid of them? should we keep them, in the case they pick up again, or at all? {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 10:39, 7 May 2011 (PDT)

What star fox communities can we reach out to? Are there any out there that we can contact? {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 10:39, 7 May 2011 (PDT).

I'm thinking we should try to make contact with Star Fox Online, Krystal Archive, and Arwing Landing. I don't know what other sites there may be.--&mdash; <span style="font-family:Papyrus; font-size:13pt">[[User:TW|<font color=#A020F0>T</font>]] [[User Talk:TW|<font color=#A020F0>W</font>]]</span> 12:04, 7 May 2011 (PDT)

What would we want in a custom skin? Do we want to use one of the defaults and then customize it; or would we rather use more [[mediawikiwiki:Manual:Gallery_of_user_styles|customized]] skins. {{User:Tacopill/sig}} 10:39, 7 May 2011 (PDT).

This is my suggestion from the main page. we use the example image and white text for a week. We can also ask others on the NIWA forums if they have any advice. If it doesn't work out, we'll look at other images to see what works. If nothing else works, we'll hold an art contest.--&mdash; <span style="font-family:Papyrus; font-size:13pt">[[User:TW|<font color=#A020F0>T</font>]] [[User Talk:TW|<font color=#A020F0>W</font>]]</span> 12:04, 7 May 2011 (PDT)
