Talk:Navigation

The purpose of this page is two-fold:

1. To keep a record of the currrent naviagation menu on the left side of the every page of this wiki. Changes are currently being planned across Wikia that mean in the future the number of menus will be restricted to four, with a maximum seven items in each menu. In an emergency, this Navigation page could be pressed into service for use under the new system (apparently being rolled out in mid-autumn), to help people find their way around the site.

2. To prepare for the new Wikia-wide skin, it may be preferable to gradually simplify the current menu to make the switch as painless as possible. The new navigation page (and paricularly this talk page) can be a forum for discussions on the best ways to do this.

There are some obvious things to be done to simplify the current menu, such as creating a new "Featured articles" category. Although this may not feature directly in one of the 28 slots under the new menu system, it could be linked to a page that it.

All suggestions are very welcome on the shape of the future menu.

Cheers,
