Draft[edit source]
I’m tired of retyping the community meeting agenda headings every week. Consequently I’ve created a template for the agenda headings, but it’s just a draft right now. My concerns about using the template include:
- If the template changes, all agenda pages that used the template would change as well. This would likely cause problems with the details saved on each week's agenda page.
- I know there's a way to get around this issue, but I don't remember what that is.
- I'd also like to make the agenda page a little more friendly. Not just text. Maybe add some color, etc. Suggestions are most welcome.
- Not sure about the category for the template. Any ideas?
- This is an invitation for anyone to edit the template and add the documentation for usage.

Reminder: to check on the possibility of upgrading the "Special page: Popular Pages" so that variable timelines could be monitored concerning the page views. It would be a fantastic metrics tool!
Reminder: you were going to check with Giuseppe about the "stage" prefix showing up in Internet searches. Is it still an issue?

As reported to you via email, there is a problem with one of the preferences options (display a preview when editor starts). If this option is checked, then the initial preview and all subsequent previews show unusual (not accurate) displays. Unchecking the option fixes the problems.

Fran,
