Should a link to the chatroom be included as well? Wayoshi TC@ 22:04, 18 October 2006 (EDT)
MKDS[edit]
I don't mean to be a wet blanket but... I don't think you should change the sitenotice for the MKDS tourney. I thought that was a personal, not a wiki thing? Huh?Knife (talk)
- It's only until Sunday, then I'm switching back to the featured article notice. We need at least one more player, or the tournament's sunk. And, to be honest...I haven't been taking care of it well. Just bear with me for three days. Wa TC@Y 00:39, 29 December 2006 (EST)
Makes sense. Could you add a bit more though, like Happy Holidays or something? That would be okay then.Knife (talk)
Stubs[edit]
Should we perhaps remind others not to create stub articles?Knife (talk) 14:36, 13 August 2007 (EDT)
Shroom Date[edit]
"The next 'Shroom articles are due February 5th.
No, they aren't. I changed the date to February 9th. Blitzwing (talk · gnome work)
Revival[edit]
Since there are no more ads, can we bring this back?--Knife (talk) 13:55, 5 March 2011 (EST)
This is getting old.[edit]
We need to change the SiteNotice. It's showing its date.
If a change is minor, backed by policy or already widely agreed upon by an informal consensus on the talk page, there's no need to go through the Talk Page Proposal process.

{{#switch:{{#expr:{{#time:U}} mod 2}}|0=First notice.|1=Second notice.}}
The above code is great to use when it's necessary to have two different notices, which appear to rotate every few page refreshes.
