Re: MediaWiki?

Well, my only complaint with the wiki engine behind the site is in the editing page. Syntax: not a problem. Final display: easy to change. The editor: uh-uh.

The editor has, along the top, smiley buttons. Smiley. Buttons. This isn't a forum. This isn't a chat client. The last thing we want in the KDE wiki are lots of animated faces making the entire product look like it was thrown together by twelve-year-olds.

And the buttons for the other editing options? They're along the left edge. Hidden. And, once they are unhidden, they spill out in a bit of a jumble.

So, yeah, remove the smiley options and move the side buttons to the top, unhidden.

However, and I want to emphasize this, those are just little nitpicks about an overall good site. Thanks for putting the site together and keeping it running.
