"Wockypedia"?

Whereas Wookieepedia is the name of the Star Wars Wiki, could we rename the Neopets Wiki to "Wockypedia"? --Shultz IV of Wikipedia 21:11, 3 May 2006 (CDT)

At the moment, NeoDex is the current name, and will stay that way for the unforseen future.--Jacob 15:44, 4 May 2006 (CDT)

Funny, I was actually thinking about that name recently - but I thinks the NeoDex has started to become a name synonymous with a Neopets Encyclopedia ;)--Yukio 13:44, 29 May 2006 (CDT)

I say it should stay NeoDex, because it's just a whole lot easier to type than Wockypedia. --LifetimeMembership

I've said it before, I think, but I'm all in favour of 'In-depth Neopedia'. --Macbeth 04:35, 25 Jul 2006 (CDT)

You know, I like name too - it reminds me to keep departments naming consistent - but that would mean I would have to re-name all the departments such as neopool to in-depth colours and avatar catalog to in-depth avatars arrgh @_@--Yukio 18:29, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Oh, I don't know. 'In-depth Trophy Catalogue' has a certain ring to it, I think (:P). Well, 'in-depth rainbow pool' and 'in-depth avatar guide', perhaps... Eh, maybe not :P. Those are both topics which it isn't really possible to get 'in-depth' about, is it? Were you to rename the NeoDex (in that fashion), you could always move the neopool and avatar sections down from full 'department' status to more of a sort of 'guide' level, as they are not so much as a collection of guides (as IDNQ, IDB, and, of course, the NeoDex are) rather a guide in themselves (if my overworked memory serves me correctly, I believe that the avatar catalogue, at least, used to be just a page in the guides section - although I do not recall whether it was actually listed in the guide section: I remember there used to a link at the top of the PPT main page, or rather, above the news entries, not exactly the top of the page)... Although, having said that, the approach to the site designs of the neopool and avatar catalogue does have some element of a... hierarchy, if you will - their own sections - that would be difficult (although not necessarily impossible) to integrate within the main body of PPT (I suppose it would really depend on the limits of how your CMS structures the guides themselves, presuming you use a CMS rather than do all the modifications by hand - the PPT NeoDex article is blank on the issue). They could remain 'separate' from the core of PPT but just be listed in guides, I suppose. Mind you, if these sections are headed by two volunteers (other than yourself, Yukio) in much the way Jacob heads the NeoDex, they could become a bit... Miffed, at having their distinction curtailed, if you follow. Of course, another way to go about it would be to divided the departments into two sections, not necessarily a formal boundary per se, but possibly one. Or you could integrate the Neopool and Avatar Catalogue (and trophy catalogue, I suppose) into one bigger section... In-depth Collectibles, perhaps? Sorry, I appear to be blabbering o_O --Macbeth 23:20, 29 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Phew! Long paragraph, but worth of course :) Constructive ideas always appreciated of course as it only betters the site. I'll read this through closely and then see what I can implement.--Yukio 09:41, 31 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Article Suggestion

Item Registry. Y'know, a huge list of all Neopia's items sorted by type (neohome, food, faerie quests, toys, etcetera etcetera). I'd be willing to undertake the majority of it, with some help. -LifetimeMembership

There is already an article titled Item, where wiki links to each of type of item can be talked about, and there is also a category for items, but the NeoDex, will not be a place for listing all the items of Neopets. maybe in the future, but at this time i see no such thing. articles for items can be made, but only noteable items, as i'm sure an article titled "Bread" as in the food item bread is a waste of space. And if one really wants a list of all the items of Neopets, all they have to do is go to NeoItems.net. --Jacob 20:54, 9 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Oh, okay then. -LifetimeMembership

Perhaps a page for each of the hidden tower items? Other that that, I agree wholeheartedly with Jacob.--Macbeth 04:35, 25 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Neodex logo?

What should we do for the Neodex logo? Is the general consensus that the Blumaroo stays? I don't happen to like the Blumaroo much, and it's not a good logo to put in other places. Just a thought. --NeoEva88 10:23, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

I think the Blumaroo writing on a paper is fine, and doesn't need to be updated. If it should recieve more negative feedback though, i'm wondering what it would be changed to. --Jacob 11:57, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

I'm happy for a change, if we can get in a better logo :)--Yukio 18:27, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

How about a Blumaroo sitting at a desk with a quill, constructed entirely of pieces of a jigsaw a la the wikipedia/uncyclopedia logos? Or virtupets space station constructed of such. It's almost spherical, so it could be identified easily with the wikipedia logo, and being spherical it would not be too difficult to create the logo to a high level of precision for it to be identifiable, and the Vitrupets space station is a recognisable icon of Neopia. --Macbeth 23:20, 29 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Now that is a really good idea! Anyone here do graphic artistry by any chance?--Yukio 09:42, 31 Jul 2006 (CDT)

Yeah, I was thinking about Virtupets a bit too, something round at least. I don´t like the idea of it being made out of jigsaw pieces though, it doesn´t need to be that much like Wikipedia. I just think something round that would seem a bit suggestive would work. (The Wookiepedia logo being an excellent example.) --NeoEva88 11:49, 1 Aug 2006 (CDT)

I think it should be one faerie from each type... that would be cool. Who agrees? --unsigned by 71.92.99.181 03:37, 5 May 2007

At the moment, a new logo isn't in the works, but ideas are always welcome. :) --Jacob 23:08, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Front Page Revamp 8/1/2007

Can we revert to the old version while the page is being overhauled? And have possibly new versions on subpages for a later editor review? --Macbeth 00:41, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

I don't know...I'm kind of smitten with the new look (duh, it's mine ;P ). But if there are some tidbits to go over before it goes fully up, I suppose it's fair. All the same, what do you think of what I currently set up? I took out a lot of links in the summariezed TOC, seeing as it was originally random. Where would you like the "testing zone" for the new front page look to be? --Jacob 01:04, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

It's nice, yeah, although the way the featured template is much longer than its adjacent box detracts from it a bit. I just think that if we are going to overhaul the front page, the change could be a bit more drastic, hence would probably need general consensus ;¬). --Macbeth 19:02, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

NeoDex coding updated

It would seem the NeoDex coding has been updated...wh00t? :D Though it seems a lot of things have changed, along with some things that seem broken. It will be dealt with in due time I am sure, but for now, I'm glad to see progress is being made for this. What does everyone else think? --Jacob 10:29, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
