Normally I'd like the shinies but I really don't think they're appropriate for a wiki. Oh, as for display on user pages - they'd go in the sidebar along with any other modules that are present. I'd likely hide it with the custom CSS, because although some things such as that can be worth looking at, they mess up layout and it's simple enough to log out to see them (although it has never remembered my username/password so I always have to retype them >_>). As for installing it, I believe it is as easy as clicking a button to turn it on, unless we want to customize them. &nbsp;<span style="background:blue; padding:6px 3px; font-size:smaller; border-radius:15px;"><span style="background:black; color:white; padding:3px; padding-left:5px; border-radius:15px 0 0 15px; white-space:nowrap;">[[User:Bobogoobo|{{color|yellow|'''Bobogoobo'''}}]] {{!}} [[User talk:Bobogoobo|{{color|orange|Talk}}]] {{!}} [[Bobogoobo|{{color|green|Nation}}]]</span>&#32;<span style="background:black; color:white; padding:3px; padding-right:5px; border-radius:0 15px 15px 0; white-space:nowrap;">04:15, Monday, 9 January 2012 ({{wikipedia|Eastern Time Zone|ET|color=#FFF}})</span></span>&#32;

Achievements

I couldn't find any discussion on Achievements in the Village Pump archives so I thought I would bring it up. I know it says that the achievements aren't retroactive (sadly) but it may have some potentially good (or bad) bonuses along with it. Here's a link to a user's page on the SWTOR wiki as an example.

Potential Pro's

  • May draw contributors to log in more instead of anonymously editting.
  • The number of active contributors may increase. Right now I'd wager there's a handful.

Potential Con's

  • It most likely will mess up user pages. (However, I'm not sure what it will be like if you're using the CSS skin)
  • The time that it take to implement it. (Once again, not sure how long/little it would take)

If anyone else wants to list any others, go right ahead. I just thought I would mention the idea and see what other folks thought.    Rogal Dorn   talk    03:57, Monday, 9 January 2012 (EST)
