This is the feedback page. The admin (User:Matthewfaulconer) watches this page. This a great place to log global problems. Don't log problems here that you could fix on your own by editing content. If you can fix something, please do.

Prioritized list of enhancements desired

  1. Add the introductory material to the Book of Mormon content. The introduction, the testimony of eight witnesses, the testimony of three witnesses, and the testimony of the prophet Joseph Smith are all missing.
  1. Make the table of contents so that it shows a list of all articles in each chapter rather than going directly to the article for the first verses and requiring users to click "next" to get to the verse they want.
  2. Make some sort of quick tutorial on how to edit an article
  3. Add a help icon or link by each section of the commentary page.
  4. Move the edit link above each section down a bit?--change skin?
  5. Allow a user to delete any sub-page of their own user page
  6. Make the recent changes page so that users by default filter out changes to user pages and user discussion pages. Add a flag so that users can include those changes in the list of pages if they desire.
  7. Change look and feel to make it look less like wikipedia. See site:proposed look and feel.
  8. When a user that is not logged in first clicks on the edit page prompt them with a note that says they are not logged in--would they like to login or create an account. Allow them to go ahead and edit anonymously if they prefer.

Prioritized bugs (most severe first)

  1. On the add file page something is working incorrectly with the affirmation statement so that it is not interpretting correclty the wiki markup and displaying at such. Instead it is displaying the wiki code. This affects the link to the contribution terms. See MediaWiki:Affirmation and Special:Upload
  2. Caching problems continue to be reported. If you notice this problem, please try to isolate a specific scenario so that we can get it fixed. E.g. first I do this, then I edit this, then I go here but then I see the old version of the page. To come up with a scenario you may need a page to test edit. Please use the site:sandbox.

Completed items

  1. Add default text for all articles
  2. Add verse redirects to articles
  3. Create a table of contents so people don't have to search to find a scripture
  4. Add table of contents to left nav
  5. Add a sandbox link to the edit page
  6. Add text to new user page to encourage people to login using their real name
  7. Show pane with scripture in it from scriptures.lds.org site
  8. Determine the copyright license to be used for things posted to this site. (Though we will want to revisit this again.)
  9. Create a page of links to other on-line scripture study resources.
  10. Some caching problems have been noticed. This means that you think you have the most recent version of a page, but you don't. To get the most recent version you may have to explicitly refresh the page. How this is done depends on your browser. Try both ctrl-f5 and ctrl-r. Between these two action most all browsers are covered. (This bug has been fixed. Please let Matthew Faulconer know if you continue to see problems).
  11. Change all articles so that Exegesis comes after Lexical notes.
  12. Change all articles. Change subheading "thought questions" to just "questions." This makes it clear that people can also post questions where they are looking for an answer under this heading.
    • Note related to the above two items: I made these changes to the commentary pages through the back-end tables. I did not add any history about this change. That means that when you compare the history of a previous item to the current commentary, it may appear that the changes I made as part of the backend were part of what that author did. Just a heads up.--Matthew Faulconer
  13. Fixed "what links here" so it displays a complete list of other commentary pages and verse redirects that link to that page. (I think I added all of the links. Let User:Matthewfaulconer know if you see anything missing.)
