||
| − | :I agree. Several of the news articles are not needed anymore, namely '''Wanted: Via Domus Gamers''' and '''Additional Post-Economist Content'''.

| − | ''"Today in Lost History: Nothing happened today in Lost History"''. I have never seen this box with anything else in it. Do we really need it? It actually makes the page look a bit lame. Add that to the ancient "New Features" and the broken "Featured Article of the Week" and it gives the impression that nothing is happening here. Can somebody have a tidy up please? Some new news items would be nice too. The main page has to look active or it just diminishes from all the hard work everyone puts in elsewhere.--{{User:TechNic/sig}} 14:54, 11 March 2008 (PDT) |
||
| − | :I think the News, Spoiler Warning and Next Time On Lost sections could be reduced in size by 50% each. Bring the poll and media appearances up closer to the top, and maybe add a section for links to new transcripts, podcasts etc. what do you think? --[[User:Hugo815|Hugo815]] 15:11, 11 March 2008 (PDT) |

Lostpedia as link farm
I'm grateful to "DarkUFO" for publishing a link to the article, but it goes through DarkUFO's own blog page, which only quotes the article and contains ads, before it gets to the real article. Very good for DarkUFO's SEO and ad impressions but obnoxious to readers of this site. Thinkyhead (talk) 13:28, October 28, 2013 (UTC)
Welcome message issue: FB/Facebook login broken
It doesn't really look good if the welcoming message frame has some broken HTML-coding in it, such as <fb:login-button>Login using Facebook</fb:login-button>. -- CompleCCity -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 02:41, May 8, 2018 (UTC)
