Featured Article Polls
Can we include this page somewhere. Since there is always an active poll there, more people will start participating in those polls if there is a message about it on the community messages section. 15:40, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Shortening
This sidebar is getting a bit long now, and parts of it are becoming obsolete. I propose making a few changes to shorten it:
 * Remove/Alter the "Latest Forum Topics" section. Due to the recent use of the Active Discussions section, we don't really need to have this large section.
 * If people would like to still see the recently edited forums, I suggest we make it smaller and include all the Wikia Issue related forum categories in a smaller table, like the "Latest Talks" section.
 * At the very least, the Candidates for Deletion forum category is no longer used by anyone and should be removed.


 * Lessen the number of blogs shown in the "Latest Blogs" section. 10 blogs is too many blogs. I suggest cutting it down to the 4 or 5 most recent blogs.


 * Not really a suggestion, but a correction: The All-Time News section states that the Featured Article Polls are active once per month, in reality they are active twice per month.

Do these sound like good ideas to everyone? 19:17, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Simple solution is to use Monobook instead. SeaTerror (talk) 20:27, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Most users don't even know that monobook exists. Try again. 08:48, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
