hei,

After messing about a bit, I've changed my

mind.  I think the table of contents should

be directly below the notice board on the

main page.

hei,

The primary purpose of the wiki is timely

reporting of known schedule or adminstrative

issues, by anyone scandieclectic-ish, not 

just me, with the way things are at the Hall,

I'm having a lot of trouble getting information,

and I thought this might help.

The sub-primary purpose is the TEMPORARY

easy sharing of anything by anybody.

That said--I think most institutions use wiki's

wrong.  The entirety of a wiki should be

viewed as a big scratchpad for timely

concerns, and working together on shit,

which it's very good for.

Anything worth keeping permanently,

should be migrated to a web page.

And that's the answer to another of

your concerns: yes, indeed, most of

what's on the front page will migrate

to a separate page, and when mature,

to a web page, when I think no one

is going to pipe up with their own opinions 

about, for example, Ari's videos worth

remembering.  Next pass, I'll see

if I can make everyone an administrator,

so if any way I've organized things bothers 

you that much, you can change it.

> the size change show up

I don't know yet.  I just started looking

around at this wiki's administrative capabilities.

> first page be a notice board

I concur with a caveat: my preference is

that the top of the front page be a notice

board, That the SideBar contain an annotated

schedule of second level sub-pages,

and that the tail of the main page have

no constraining rules.  A wiki should

above all, be more convenient than email

for sharing half-baked things with minimal

intellectual or administrative overhead.

...

That's my opinion, and I'm standing

by it until you change my mind.
