Edit request

I propose that these links are removed from the Main page:

  • Interlingual coordination – "This page is kept for historical interest. Any policies mentioned may be obsolete" is on the page
  • Community – an essay probably doesn't belong on the frontpage, at least not this one as it's not a very insightful comprehensive one; it could be replaced with Category:Community and I think adding that link would be a good idea
  • Category:Deleteme – why is this maintenance category on the frontpage to begin with? It doesn't belong there, may contain the pages one may want users to read the least not the most, and should rather be linked visibly on other pages if it isn't already such as Meta:Requests for deletion

Removing these can make the other pages more visible and reduce information overload and overseeability, making it e.g. more likely visitors check several links.

Moreover, I think if both Growing Wikimedia and Wikimedia principles are to remain linked on the frontpage, they really do well with some improvements. They currently don't really live up their page titles and to some degree a mess of largely outdated or old-archived things while missing much more important/useful pages on the topics.

Not done (as to the immediate edit request) discussion on this proposal should continue here first. — xaosflux Talk 14:10, 14 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
Okay, this thread was meant to be for discussion of this proposal. Thought it would be good to tag it as edit request as it's a proposal for an edit(s). I hope users will comment. Prototyperspective (talk) 14:38, 14 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
It's approaching 3 weeks since I opened this thread and nobody commented – could this please be implemented now? Prototyperspective (talk) 22:59, 2 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
