A professor’s point of view: I don’t know if everyone has to change their password by next week but it is possibly the worst time of year in terms of being busy for faculty. Two weeks later when grades are in would be much smoother I would think. Just my two cents.

please add a wysiwig editor to the wiki!
Friday, August 29th, 2008Our present wiki — MediaWiki — doesn’t have a wysiwig editor, which means that to do anything with formatting you need to use HTML or wikimarkup, neither of which are very user-friendly. Can we add a wysiwig editor to our installation?

Make ‘go’ links easier to find
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008- When possible, add a note with the appropriate go/ short-cut to the headers of pages with go/ links, so folks will know how to get there again.
- Create an easy to find reverse gotionary–and, possibly category directory–of go/links, with all the items that currently have go/links. Sometimes it’s difficult to figure out what the go/ link could be.
