Hey Matsczon! I went ahead and finished the mock draft of a new mainpage for the Dark Souls wiki on my sandbox. You can view it live at this link:

https://dougsandbox.wikia.com/wiki/Doug_Sandbox_Wiki

Just a couple of highlights for what I approached:

- Removed the mainpage slider, clickthrough rates on these units are extremely low and we've begun to phase them out for simple visual navigation - Combined Blog and Discussions feeds into a split unit. added the official Twitter feed to the right rail - Simplified the video template to a single video (mostly use it for the newest trailer announcements, or rotate to the wikis fancy) - Added a contribute box and a activity feed in the right rail - Switch the image headers to text headers (image headers hurt SEO, and text makes it easier to update/change going forward)

Let me know what you think, if you'd like to remove any components or reorder them, don't hesitate to say so! The minute you give me the go ahead, I'll go ahead and implement! TheBlueRogue •(profile)•(talk)•(doug@fandom.com) 19:51, June 4, 2018 (UTC)
