Forum:Enhancements through Wikia Addons?

Hey,

I've been wondering why you guys haven't switched to the Message Wall and enhanced navigation bar at the top so far. Is there any reason not to? The Message Wall sorts user discussions in threads like the blog commentary, and the enhanced bar provides MUCH more space. And both are from the Wiki Labs as the chat addon. -- [ defchris ] · [ Diskussion ] · 09:02, August 28, 2012 (UTC)

Not sure about the admins' point of view but I don't see any problem with the way our current search bar works.

As for the Message Wall, it does look convenient but... I'm not sure I want people to see my entire conversation with another user. And I don't like the way it's displayed in the Wiki Activity either.

This wiki was against the wall when it came out. Admins didn't like it, I understand why.. And same thing with the achievements. We are old fashioned I guess, and it's better this way.

I don't like Message Wall!

Okay, with three users at once putting down the suggestion, I think it's not that useful to stick around on that topic. But one thing: NeoWitch, it's not as if edits of the User talk namespace would neither appear in the RecentChanges nor the WikiActivity. The only difference is that the current shows the edit summary, the message wall the whole message. It's only a difference of one click. -- [ defchris ] · [ Diskussion ] · 10:40, August 28, 2012 (UTC)

I think this is comparable to the reason why spoilers should be posted in the forum rather than in blogs. We do not want the content of the message on the Activity. I hope you understand that.
