1. The bright red warning "If you are unable to edit the wiki after logging in, you will need to request editing rights using this form. You will be notified when editing rights are granted" is <span style="color:red">ugly</span>. Can you change it to black? | |||
This new policy also seems to contradict the pages that invite participation. Why not scrap the lockdown policy and change that statement to something like <br> | |||
"Help us fight vandalism. If you see a page that is inappropriate click here" <br> | |||
At the very least perhaps give church members the benefit of the doubt. I don't know the extent of the problem, just giving my perspective. | |||
{{Contributor Help badge| link = https://familysearch.org/ask/ | name = Get Help}} | |||
2. The following life preserver link is found throughout the wiki ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> | |||
When a new editor clicks on this, they are taken to a very generic FamilySearch help page (and there is no box there for Wiki-help). I would think a solution to this would be to add a wiki box on that page, <br> | |||
or better yet change the help page to [[Wiki_Support#Talk_with_Us|this support page instead]]. As someone with experience with Wikipedia I can easily code and tell you these things. Most new comers trying to give feedback would probably just give up and disappear. | |||
3. The font is freakishly small on this site. One of the few site that require me to hit "ctrl" and "+". Weird. | |||
Just a few of my inital impressions. I hope to use my Wikipedia experience to help make this site better. I hope this feedback is useful. [[User:Ryancormack|Asparagus]] ([[User talk:Ryancormack|talk]]) 16:02, 28 November 2016 (UTC) | |||
