I have been working on improving wesnoth.org (and the wesnoth website in general) lately. These improvements mainly involve a redesign of wesnoth.org and the migration of the wiki.
The redesign was motivated by the fact that we have now a stable release in mind: Wesnoth 1.0. Also, it is intended to solve some of the problems of the current website (for example, the current homepage is not very flexible), as well as improving its look and feel. Even though the redesign is not yet finished, it is progressing well. It will probably be ready for the next release. You can see a screenshot[1] of the homepage. 1. http://ettin.org/vault/wesnoth/glamdrol/new-wwo.png On the other hand, the wiki is ready to be migrated. Actually, the migration is an important part of the new website. The current wesnoth.org is rather useless IMHO. Most probably because the project has grown a lot since it was first created. As Ivanovic pointed out yesterday: 20:31 <Ivanovic> the only funktion of the website is to link forum and wiki ;) So, how we plan to fix this? The idea is to "merge" the website and the wiki, using a wiki engine on wesnoth.org. I'm not sure which will be the result, but I don't think it is difficult to improve the current situation. If no one is against, I'll probably proceed with the migration of the wiki tomorrow. At first, we will continue using the same website, but it will have the wiki on wesnoth.org/wiki (running Mediawiki[2]) instead of wesnoth.slack.it. 2. http://www.mediawiki.org/ After that, when we consider the new wiki "stable" and "clean" enough (tiny2media manages the most obvious parts of the migration, but it will take some time to polish and adapt the pages), we could move the website. Btw, you can already see and play with the new wiki[3]. It is not the final version though, and almost everything will be removed. I would like to hear your comments and criticisms. Also, if you are interested in helping, read this page[3] and come tomorrow to IRC ;) 3. http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/ 4. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing
