:So, you're saying we shouldn't use the "templates" for this like we normally do for the featured articles? I mean, I guess we could, but I don't particularly see a problem with using the templates. I don't think we did that in the past, but oh well. This would be less coding on the main page, plus, if we decide to do the Template:Main Page idea mentioned on the IRC last week, this will make things easier. Just my thoughts, though. {{User:Xion4ever/Sig}} 00:35, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

::The main page doesn't use the template because there's not enough space for the entire Cleanup excerpt. That's why there's just the picture and the "This month is the image renovation" thing. The template is only used on the hub page currently. What was the Template:Main Page idea, can I ask? {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 00:44, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

:::We can't use the Template:Main Page idea, 'cuz my understanding tells me it'd mess up with the mobile Main Page (unless we make a separate version, like was proposed. the idea is essentially make all the boxes as a template and then use the template instead of coding each box. [[User:Obitus|Obitus]] suggested it, and made a draft [[User:Obitus/mpbox|here]].

:::Here's what I'm thinking: We implement the Template:Main Page, create a separate Main Page for the mobile version like Porple mentioned, and we could add the Cleanup, but I don't know where. As for the templates related to the Cleanup, I think we should model it like the Featured User: Use one template for the Main Page (or the Hub in Traverse Town, wherever it will go) and use a Previous Cleanup page to put the previous ones. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 00:49, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
