Suggestions

I've got a couple of suggestions regarding this wiki:

1. (done) Archive all the stuff we have on Village pump
2. (done) Change the random addon voting: instead of casting votes, just list each one exactly once. Otherwise newly added addons are shown less often, and that's not very fair.
3. Write the words OrbiterWiki across the logo (I can upload some of my attempts)
4. Change the wiki back to case-insensitive. The development to make it _fully_ case insensitive never materialised obviously, so rather than sticking with the (as I see it) inconvenient _fully_ case sensitive we would be better off using the standard case sensitivity mode (same as Wikipedia)

I'll do all of these things if no-one complains :) --RaMan 17:13, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Can you also check if the display of categories is still active? I just tested it and noticed that no article shows the category - though it should. --Urwumpe 08:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Fixed. --RaMan 23:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Will check this out asap. --RaMan 21:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Hmm it works for me. Might have been a temporary glitch. Post back if it happens again. --RaMan 22:11, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
