[edit] big-picture completions and plans: Timeline
[edit] bugs, ideas, features detailed: Issues
[edit] Writer/Community-Friendly Changes
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Why is the Wiki case sensitive?
- Auto-complete search form
- Why is the time all wrong in Recent changes? -- should be MST time or EST time
[edit] User-Friendly Additions
- An automated tracking system on the Community Portal (clarification needed)
- Advanced search tools
- Add wikihow bookmarks
- We aren't a Fraternity, it ought not say "members" in each category
- The results after a search (if there is no exact-match page) ain't pretty
- Move popularity stats to separate box on the side of the page
- The warning to non-logged in users isn't very nice
- can it say the total number of articles on the first page, when ya click it?
- Mushkin says: easier search tools for these pages*
- bloggy-like page for past homepage features
- notifying the number of new articles added to each heading besides them within braces
[edit] Clarissa-Friendly Additions
- Wishing for an easier way to keep track of the writers + when they wrote their articles -- if we make the user page = author page and have the pages they've created listed automatically
[edit] Wouldn't it be cool if...
- each parent could "save" favorite names, email them, etc
- digg, facebook, etc...
- Companies made pages about how they got their names -- kind of "aboutus" style -- once the word spread they'd just come and fill it out...
- We had some community oriented spaces -- forums for parents to connect, etc
- We had merchandise of sorts for sale (Mike suggested cafepress.com)
- Vanity email addresses @name.net (Re: must connect with Bill on this)
- Dynamic name games of sorts -- perhaps fancy search tools? What kind? Hmmm... dunno... visual name searches, names associated with colors, names that rhyme with Joe, artist names, scientist names -- we could do all kinds of playful, informative lists/associations
[edit] SEO
- A script that could scan pages and add brackets [[]] to all names
[edit] current projects
- A fancy search site for prospective parents -- search by letter, rhyming names, etc.
- Create name spinner
[edit] Misc.
- Link to famous names - i.e., "Robert Redford" (on Bob) should be a link to Wikipedia, or even better a link to Robert Redford (yes, let's discuss)
- Move popularity trends, namesakes, famous people, variants into a template call, perhaps render in an "infobox" on the right. (mockup?) (yes, let's discuss)
- Internationalization - make it easy for non-English-speaking users to add content. (eventually)
- Same for features like What’s in a (Presidential) Name?
- Audio for name pronunciation (yes, eventually)
- Add favicon.ico (e.g. http://name.com/favicon.ico) (please explain?)
- Cross-post some/all home page features to a blog. (This is great content, where does it go when the home page is changed?)*
- Extensions to consider
