She's my late fiance and in Rec guide 12 [[User:Livewire2112|Livewire2112]] ([[User talk:Livewire2112|talk]]) 21:14, 12 May 2021 (EDT)+ I'm currently working on a design refresh for Sarna.net, which has looked mostly the same since the wiki opened in 2006. The goal of the refresh is give a modern visual update to Sarna and to bring consistency across the News, Wiki, Forums and Downloads section. − : Hello, Livewire. I am reasonably sure that if the character is canon (I don't have #12 yet), they will be added in some fashion. However, if you want to prime the pump a bit, and are not familiar with wikis, I'd recommend opening a similar character (maybe from an earlier ''Guide'') and starting an article named [[Rebecca Taylor]], copying all the stuff (text & code) over into the new article, changing everything that doesn't pertain and adding what is needed. Some other Editor will be sure to follow behind and correct any mistakes or add needed info. Good luck, and I'll be looking for the article (and the ''Guide'').--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 21:21, 12 May 2021 (EDT)+ You can enable the new look by choosing the '''SarnaTest''' skin in your preferences. − : Update: [https://www.sarna.net/wiki/index.php?title=List_of_Clan_Invasion_Kickstarter_Characters&diff=prev&oldid=676150 The process has started], Livewire, thanks to [[User:Dmon|Dmon]].--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 22:07, 12 May 2021 (EDT) + Here's what I've done so far: + * Updated the top navigation bar to be more prominent and easier to navigate with. + * Changed the global font (from Verdana to Open Sans) + * Increased the font size slightly + * Changed the background color + * Many small visual updates + * Made the site navigation responsive on mobile devices + * Wiki: + ** Made the left navigation section easier to navigate and cleaned up some of the links + ** Made several parts of the wiki responsive on mobile devices (more to come) + ** Many misc visual style updates and fixes − == Potential issue in File:Götterdämmerung (system) 3151.svg ==+ To Do: + * Update the Downloads section + * Update the Forums + * Update the Sarna logo − Hi Nik,+ I'm interested in getting your feedback on the update so far.

[[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] ([[User talk:Nicjansma|talk]]) 11:11, 5 August 2013 (PDT) − While reviwing images without category, I found out this one File:Götterdämmerung (system) 3151.svg, which had no category nor information unlike the rest. I remember you have the "macro" that creates them and prepares them and adds a category because I asked this to help clean the [https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Special:UncategorizedFiles "Uncategorized Files"] page. No idea why this one got nuts. I added the information. Maybe it is because of the nice german spelling, but it is not the only planet like this. Hope you can review and thanks in advance!--[[User:Pserratv|Pserratv]] ([[User talk:Pserratv|talk]]) 08:23, 5 November 2021 (EDT)+ === Sarna.net Design Refresh Comments === − : Perfect thanks!

The change is a slight improvement in my book, nothing substantial in my eyes but there's certainly nothing wrong with it.<br />Given that Sarna is mostly perceived as the BT wiki these days, it's a bit odd that wiki isn't the first item in the navigation bar - and the "Sarna.net >>" link goes straigth to the wiki and not to some top level directory. My suggested order of items would therefore be wiki, news, forum, downloads and it goes without saying that the downloads section needs a massive cleanup. You might want to ask Catalyst if they'd allow you to host certain files that used to be free downloads from previous iterations of the official BT page: the House Books, ''[[Lawyers, Guns, & Money]]'', also important fan work such as ''[[Objective Raids: 3067]]'', etc.<br />Finally, I note that the ad sections are back even for registered user accounts.

There will be a new landing page for the "Sarna.net >> link". While Sarna is currently known for the wiki, the News section is new and I want to promote it.

I want to see which images are missing a real category as missing copyright is a "commonplace" not a category for me. It is good to know they are missing copyright, but for me it is even more to know which ones are missing a place like being an image of a Free Worlds League character...--[[User:Pserratv|Pserratv]] ([[User talk:Pserratv|talk]]) 05:07, 19 January 2022 (EST) + ::What browser are you using?

Adding it to [[User:Talvin/Project_Orphanage#Technical_Pages]] shows it as a red link, and it does not disappear from the Orphans when that cache refreshes overnight. This is hardly a showstopper bug or even close, but it's odd. [[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 10:57, 27 February 2022 (EST) − : Strange, I couldn't find any way to make it disappear either. Must be a side-effect of it being a LUA module. Since it's not affecting anything else (that I can tell) I'll leave it for now, but if there's a pattern of this happening I can dig into it more. Thanks for bringing to my attention!
