Alright, so we need ideas onto how to make this site more popular and gain more editors, right? Well, when I first joined way back on the 21 October last year, I had a very low opinion of this site, as I thought it was drab, plain and most of it appeared to be misspellings and bad grammar. So perhaps many people are coming to this site, deciding "Oh, it's a mess" and leaving. So we perhaps need to neaten this site up a bit, which also counts as a general comment as well. So basically, pics, colourful infoboxes and de-stubbing articles may just be the way to go. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 16:33, 30 January 2007 (UTC) | Alright, so we need ideas onto how to make this site more popular and gain more editors, right?

:I agree all you've said. I have not found good old series screencaps in abundance online, actually, though you can get new series screencaps easily enough. | |||
the colorful infoboxes seem to have slowly started to creep in (thank you again, Joker), though of course we could use more of them. Wikipedia has a number of WHO-related infoboxes (and some TORCHWOOD) that I found yesterday, even if they only cover television continuity exclusively. I also suggest we change the featured article which has sat there forever and have some new news stories. the latest one concerns an event that happened before "Invasion of the Bane", even. so, maybe something on "Infinite Quest" animated series or the costume auction, as those seem like the biggest WHO news lately. | |||
infoboxes (I will also paste this to elsewhere in the forum): | |||

:Really? Because when I joined up back on February 21 (when it was logistically more barren), I did so ''because'' it was in such bad shape.

::Yeah, that's also partly why I joined, but not everybody thinks that way. Unfortunately. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 16:45, 30 January 2007 (UTC) | ::Yeah, that's also partly why I joined, but not everybody thinks that way. Unfortunately. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 16:45, 30 January 2007 (UTC) | ||
