New Home Page Look Proposal
History for this proposal can be seen on Talk:Home/Archive06 (yes, I'm finally getting back around to this). To put it simply, one thing that has somewhat annoyed me about the Home page for a very long time is the limitation of only being able to see the three most recent Updates' summaries... I have a proposed solution, that I am ~98% satisfied with and feel now is a good time to propose a possible solution I have devised...  My proposal. This solution uses, , T:News, and Home/What's new along with all of our existing sub-pages to make the nice scrollable box you should see displayed. I've currently set things assuming an 800x600 resolution for those without JavaScript (enabled) as I am guessing that is currently worst case. That can be adapted if other think that larger might be better for the fallback case. ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 13:52, July 30, 2015 (EDT)
 * Personally I never visit the Home page, but it looks okayish. --Cru121 (Contributions • Message) 14:44, July 30, 2015 (EDT)
 * It should look mostly the same as it does now except that older updates will be available with a scrollbar in the What's new section. How many updates/years/increment do we want to go back? We really don't need to go all the way back to the beginning of time, but I'm thinking back at least 20 updates worth or about 5 years should be plenty?  I can add the date of the pack in the section for each one or something too. Making it date based might be a little less automatic, but I think I can do that too... It does look kind of like crap on the mobile skin ( [ ] ) but just about everything else does too. I just noticed they are all showing up center aligned.  I'll fix that before going live.

 * Okay, so I've added three more rows to the testcases page to show a comparison for what it would look like with ALL updates (back to Update 1) in the top row (could also add Modules, but really don't think that is needed or wanted); row two is the 20 most recent updates (about 5 years worth at 4 updates per year); row three is the 12 most recent (about 3 years worth at 4 updates per year) I think this one looks the best; row four is the 8 most recent (about 2 years worth at 4 updates per year).
