Hello list,
I like the fact that people (by one means or another) agreed on using the banner space for something other than the fund drive
They did no such thing.
(there is already a permanent link in the interaction sidebox, no?). Then things is an interesting usage for that valuable bulletin space.
But I don't think its the best usage. A better usage would be for mobjobs; fix-it tasks which would effectively serve double duty as reminders (or first time notices) of some basic process and policy, focusing on particular problems or aspects. These can be minor items that need lots of eyeballs to correct on a large scale.
Wikipedian eyeballs putting that kind of thing in anon notice is pointless and if you start adding rubbish to the top of the screen for logged in users there will be resistance and rightfuly so.
