-== Jimmy Wales' Mug ==
-Any chance of losing that bizzare, psycopathic-seeming gaze on the banner?!? It really freaks me out!  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/203.208.77.97|203.208.77.97]] ([[User talk:203.208.77.97|talk]]) 01:10, 13 December 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-:Shame, when I read the heading I thought maybe some entrepreneurial soul had begun selling coffee mugs with Jimbo's terrifying stare plastered over it. So he can watch you while you sleep.

-:I also thought you ment mugs as in tea and coffee mugs; but it Caught your attention didn't it? mission acomplished woudln't you say seeing as it's a fundraising banner? :) --[[User:Connelly90|Connelly90&#91;AlbaGuBràth&#93;]] ([[User talk:Connelly90|talk]]) 16:08, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
-::As someone who's had a hand in fundraising in the past, I'll point out for the sake of argument, that catching people's attention can be a useful aspect of fundraising, but if a line is crossed into irritation, it's not a good thing. Whether the Jimbo banner is irritating or not seems to be the OP's point, not whether it's eye-catching. If I came to an office as a [[one man band]] and suddenly began playing, with the aim of prompting donations, I'm sure I'd get noticed, but I'm not sure I'd get much money (or goodwill). --[[User:Dweller|Dweller]] ([[User talk:Dweller|talk]]) 16:59, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
-:::Me, I found it so irritating that I looked in the source files to find the filename of the Jimbo photo used, and add it to my browser's content filter. Whenever a new image was used, I'd add it to the blocklist. Now that it's no longuer Jimbo, I don't mind as much. Still, they could make the banner not so huge.

-Can we all agree that Lilaroja was hot and she should be the official spokesgirl of Wikipedia?[[Special:Contributions/184.190.207.21|184.190.207.21]] ([[User talk:184.190.207.21|talk]]) 20:35, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
-== Are misleading news allowed? ==
-In this case "The PCRM receives the most votes in the Moldovan parliamentary election, while the Alliance for European Integration wins a majority of seats."
-IMHO this suggests misrepresentation, with the two statements being connected like that. The first statement is only true if you consider parties, not political alliances, and the second only if you consider political alliances, not parties.[[User:Ambi Valent|Ambi Valent]] ([[User talk:Ambi Valent|talk]]) 09:33, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
-The statement is 'perfectly reasonable' to anyone in a parliamentary election system - there are several examples in which 'Labour/Tory' and 'Tory/Labour' (or vice versa) and 'the UK' could be substituted. [[User:Jackiespeel|Jackiespeel]] ([[User talk:Jackiespeel|talk]]) 15:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
-: Even in USA we get ''similar'' situations.  In 2000 Al Gore received the most votes, but George W. Bush won the most electoral votes. [[Special:Contributions/72.10.110.109|72.10.110.109]] ([[User talk:72.10.110.109|talk]]) 23:26, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
--Irrelevant - Algore conceded, twice. IE, He quit, twice. AND in the final count conducted by Time Magazine, Bush won, barely, but he won. So get your facts straight.--[[User:Degen Earthfast|Degen Earthfast]] ([[User talk:Degen Earthfast|talk]]) 16:04, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
-::This isn't really the same as those two examples though: as I understand it, the PCRM won the most votes and the most seats of any individual party, but if you group the parties in the Alliance for European Integration (the ruling coalition) together, they won a majority of both votes and seats.  The line does seem a little misleading (though I suppose it won't be on the main page for much longer). [[Special:Contributions/81.98.38.48|81.98.38.48]] ([[User talk:81.98.38.48|talk]]) 00:20, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
-:Degen sorry but what are you talking about? Our [[United States presidential election, 2000]] says Al Gore won the popular vote (by over 540k votes). If you have sources which say otherwise, please add them to the article rather then making OT and unsupported claims here. And it is relevant to this discussion because the issue here is that in many electoral systems it is possible for someone or a party to effectively win the election even if someone else wins the popular vote. From what I can tell, in the Moldovan case this didn't even happen but the claim was made so people responded accordingly pointing out it is likely to be something many reader would understand if that actually happened. Note in particular, no one made any comments on the fairness or whatever of such an occurence which is indeed irrelevant because our opinions on things not affecting wikipedia always are on wikipedia. Nor did anyone dispute whether Bush won the electoral vote so I'm not sure what the relevance of Gore conceding is to this discussion nor why you repeated what people had already said, i.e. Bush won the electoral vote. (Whether who won the popular vote has any relevance in general is moot in this discussion.) [[User:Nil Einne|Nil Einne]] ([[User talk:Nil Einne|talk]]) 23:41, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
-Well,,, Your Right.   And that's exaclty why out of random thoughts,,, I think we should recognize the GHPPBA or The Grand Hopeless, Poor and Pathetic Bastards of America organization right here on Wikipedia.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/64.134.155.199|64.134.155.199]] ([[User talk:64.134.155.199|talk]]) 02:57, 9 December 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

-== Main page statistics ==
-There seem to be a 'sufficiently high number' of items on the main page involving animals to justify a discussion on the subject. ;) [[User:Jackiespeel|Jackiespeel]] ([[User talk:Jackiespeel|talk]]) 15:14, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
-== Did you know ==
-Could "... that a turning enthusiast built the most elaborate commercial building (pictured) in New Ulm, Minnesota?" be better phrased with "New Ulm's most elaborate commercial building" because otherwise it somehow looks like it features as one of the most elaborate commercial buildings ''anywhere'' and that has its own problems of objectivity??[[User:Eugene-elgato|Eugene-elgato]] ([[User talk:Eugene-elgato|talk]]) 11:50, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
-== People have given up on Wikipedia's front page ==
-{{Discussion top}}
-It's obvious the last couple of years Wikipedia front page lost its appeal to the people (nobody cares to even debate it anymore, with so few visitors about it) because it refuses to allow democratic procedures other than "we'll take into consideration your petty suggestions, peasant". If you want to improve it, stop putting Directors, "Arbitrators" and Know-it-alls in general on any section of the front page sub-themes and start learning from websites like reddit.com. Let people submit whatever and the best news, 'did you know', whatever, even page will go top *by simple visitor 'upvoting'*. Because your Elitism of having "enlightened" or only regular visitors with the process of writing in a wiki format with lengthy reasonings is not justified. You will never replace Democracy with "Enlightened Elites". This was the vision of every fascist regime in the history of the world and it failed. --[[User:Leladax|Leladax]] ([[User talk:Leladax|talk]]) 16:51, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

-: Sorry that the selection process isn't ''exactly'' the same as Digg or something, but in most things Wikipedia prefers intelligent debate over mindless voting. So be prepared to back up your opinions with a brief argument.
-: Ultimately, though, the end result is similar, our users choose and "vote" on the articles that go up on the main page.
-: The only un-democratic step is the Featured Article selection process. It's moderated by a single editor to avoid unseemly "clumping" of topics, but he's usually pretty open to suggestions and requests.

-== Main Page archiving ==
-Many people wonder what the main page looked like on a given day. I suggest archiving the main page daily by getting a bot to use [[Special:ExpandTemplates]] on the source and save the result in a dated page. I just created [[Wikipedia:Main Page history/2010 December 16]] as an example. All templates and parser functions are recursively expanded by [[Special:ExpandTemplates]] so the result should look almost constant except for some details like sitenotices, deleted or changed images, and design changes in the software. It could also be done every 4 or 6 hours to capture DYK changes but daily seems enough to me. [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 16:46, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
