Editing Forum:Days in Nitrome History

{{Forumheader|Wiki Discussion}}

I was thinking if it would be a good idea to add a "This Day in Nitrome History" section to the [[Nitrome Wiki|main page]]. You will have to take today's date, and with the help of [[Template:Years|this page]] you can find the same date and put it up on the wiki. It may be a way to attract newer users, and adds a bit of sophistication, but then again, you may be overwhelmed because the updates are too quick to manage, or it may be hard to find interesting facts. But I just want to test it.

For example:
'''On this day in Nitrome History...'''

The game Test Subject Arena was updated. ([[Test Subject Arena|Read more...]])

:What a coincidence; this had been on my mind for the longest time. It does require quite complex coding and a lot of templates, since you'll want the templates to change with accordance to the days rather than change them manually. I think there might be enough dates, but I haven't checked yet. I was going to try it on my [[w:c:random-storykeeper|test wiki]], but I haven't started it yet. You're welcome to try it out on my test wiki if you want. {{Signatures/Random-storykeeper}} 23:48, June 17, 2013 (UTC)

::We may want to wait a little on this until our community is a bit bigger, otherwise it might become neglected and not changed every day. However, if you really are pining for this, we could do something like '''this ''week'' in Nitrome history''' or '''this ''month'' in Nitrome history.''' {{Signatures/Emitewiki2}} 02:21, January 30, 2014 (UTC)

:::Not sure if you understood the whole "complex coding" bit. This wouldn't be manually updated; there would be many pages, each assigned an individual day. You add on events when they come on those days. Oh well, this topic's half a year old anyways. {{Signatures/Random-storykeeper}} 04:51, January 30, 2014 (UTC)
::::Oh ok, I see now. If someone wants to actually carry out this they are free to, but otherwise I think I'll close this topic in a few days. {{Signatures/Emitewiki2}}  17:29, January 31, 2014 (UTC)
