Suggestions

Some suggestions to improve the wiki:

  • It would be elegant if the wiki URLs omitted the "index.php" section, similarly to how it works on Wikipedia.
  • Increase the font size to match the standard font size of Wikipedia. Small fonts were trendy in 2002 but nowadays readability on big screens is more common.
  • A domain like wiki.greyhawkonline.com would be more elegant, I think.
  • The general greyhawkonline page uses a very bright red which I think could be improved.

- I want to take a minute to say thanks for adding suggestions. I apologize for the week in between from your post. We have been working on some really great things for content for GaryCon2019, and we've had to schedule a lot of things.
Let me respond to your great suggestions in order:
  • We are definitely looking at changing the "index.php" portion of URLs. Unfortunately it is a very difficult change to make in the code and we're having to work on finding a proper solution that doesn't break the website (which it has briefly done twice).  :)
  • The font size will absolutely change! We weren't actually even aware of the very small difference in the sizes of the fonts. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!
  • You're right about a URL like wiki.greyhawkonline.com, but, unfortunately for site analytics, that's technically a different site we want all of our SEO and site analytics to be reported to a single domain without reporting to subdomains. But, thank you for noticing it, because it was a very difficult decision to choose which way to do it.
  • The shade/value of that particular shade of red is a little on the bright side. We agree that it could be toned down just a little to lower the saturation of it, and have just a pleasant of site. We're going to try a few options and see if we can make the color theme better.
Thanks, again, for all of your help!
