You really like that page? Is so plain to me (i
like the upper part, but
the rest ... not so good)
What i can do is create "my" main page in User namespace and when is ready
i come here show to you and you made all sugestions and alterations you
want. How that sounds?

Thanks much for the offer of help, Beria. Really
appreciate that.
Personally, I would agree with the sentiment that a single website
serves the purpose. We can simply lock some pages to make them
static, the rest can work like a wiki.
Are there more suggestions on this issue? Should we have two websites
(one static, based on wordpress or drupal and the other a wiki) or
should one (wiki) serve the purpose best?
Beria, at this point of time, I would say that anything is better than
the plain pages we have now. We require some standardization too, so
that we can organize information better (through categories).
I think the Wikimedia Hong Kong page (wikimedia.hk) looks great. Are
there more examples? Maybe we need some out-of-the-box thinking to
create something new. (-:

I can help redesign the wiki main page. But would help if you people
say what do
you want (as if: "I would like if the main page was like WM XX
wiki main page")
And I agree with Salmaan, there are no point in keep wikimedia.in and
wiki.wikimedia.in separated. but I would do the oposite (ie: redirect
wiki.wikimedia.in to wikimedia.in but with the actual content - like in
wikimedia.de and wikimedia.pt. A diferent portal would only be useful if
was like wikimedia.fr one (in their case the wiki is almost not used at
all).
And talking about that: Do you people have it wikipedia.in domain?
Because if a
chapter would give good use to that would be you (with the
thousand languages in India). You could do something like in
wikipedia.fr (WMPT has the code, we are updating to place in our
wikipedia.pt (now a redirect to
pt.wikipedia.org).
And btw: Hello people. Salmaan invited me to be here, but if i
shouldn't
please say so and i will leave.

redirect to the wiki itself and add a section for blog/news on wiki. It
would seem like there would be a lot of redundancy between the two, and it
would only require more work to update both separately.

I
request the attention of available volunteers to help us with the
Wikimedia website redesign. We mainly need help with two issues:
>> 1. Wikimedia India wiki: The Main Page
of the wiki (
wiki.wikimedia.in) requires a re-design to make it look better
organized
and attractive. I would appreciate if volunteers with designing and HTML
skills please support us with this request. We welcome all contributions
and inputs, and I request you to be bold and make changes as and how you see
fit.
>> 2. Wikimedia India landing page: The
wikimedia.in domain lands at a
static page and the plan is to have a wordpress or
drupal based platform to
support a few static pages and a blog. Would appreciate if some volunteers
helped us with this as well.
