I really like this, especially as it jives much better with the wikipedia main page. There are two things- it seems to take significantly longer to load this page than the current main page (~twice as long to load the page itself, and ~3 times to load all the files (imgs,css, etc), though I'm not sure what's hitting caches at various internet junctures). Second, the Recent Expeditions doesn't feel like it fits right with the rest of the page. I'd recommend putting perrow=2 in the [[Template:Expedition Images]] gallery tag and break [[Template:Recent Images]] into two columns. I have a sample up at [[User:David_Souther/sandbox/Main_Page]].

That previous comment was me when not logged in. --Kieran 13:02, 29 June 2008 (UTC)


This page looks good to me. What do you think needs finishing on it, and what consensus before replacing the frontpage? --Nemo 07:22, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
