Talk:Welcome to MEpedia

Tutorial on Portal pages: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Portals

Suggestion:
The main page is attractively laid out, and appealing to a viewer wanting to browse through major topics. However, I’m not sure there should be a link to the ‘Contents’ page. My impression of the contents page is that it is primarily for contributors, not the viewing public. I don’t see a need for a public-facing Contents page when we already have a great Main page such as this one. Perhaps we could move the ‘Contents’ link to the ‘Contribute’ page instead?

I have now added a link to the Contents and Condensed Contents pages from the Contribute page, so contributors will see them.

Instead of removing the 'Contents' link from the main page, perhaps we can simply have it link to the page Special:Categories, which may allow the public to browse by a list of categories? Probably not, as the categories are also currently too messy to be exposed to the public.
