Forum:Create a new wiki Button is very distracting

Is there any reason why its sitting up their? I noticed that with wikia that have headers, it is just very distracting and not attractive. It also feels pushy. Can't the staff make it a bit more appealing by putting it else where? Bunai82 04:46, February 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * They recently changed it's styling but it has always been there.
 * So, if you noticed it just today because of this change of style; maybe what they are doing is not so bad.
 * I mean, making people notice it more was their intention so they are successfull in that.
 * On my part, i dont like green as a color. I prefer blue. Even red is better.

 * In terms of it being noticed, Wikia done exactly what was needed. It is much easier to see, and this is important when we consider that some regular Wikipedia readers for years failed to notice that the page was actually editable.
 * Actually, I find the green probably a good choice, particularly for the default skins and the skin used here at Central. Blue would stand out a lot less, and that would simply defeat its purpose, and red is too bright for the eyes. However, for individual wikis, if they don't like the colour green, you can change its colour, upload it, and incorporate it into the site's css - example. That would probably improve its appeal on some wikis with more distinctive colours in their skins. Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 05:47, February 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * To me, it would seem better to squeeze it into the top bar or a place closer to the Wikia Logo (to the left?), instead of floating as a header. Bunai82 07:37, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Use CSS to style it however you like. viz. /* display: none; */ /* ... or whatever you fancy */ } -- najevi 09:25, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

 * @User:The 888th Avatar: The post is about Create a new wiki Button, not the button for editing a section of the page.
 * Was this change necessary? I think that people are very aware about the create a new wiki link. Since the forced change to Monaco skin some years ago it seems that Wikia is putting all the effort to distract people from reading the content. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 17:52, February 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * It doesn't seems to be there for anon (readers).
 * To me, there's something way more distracting to readers that a small green button at the top of the page.
 * Screen capture (on ImageShack).
 * And what i hate the most about the Wikianswers banner that show at the top of every page of every french wikis is that there are often bad word in it and i dont even know about it. So i recently began deleting bad things off the french Wikianswers
 * And about the style of the button. Both the Create wiki button and the Edit button have the same style even though they're might be using a different class or ID. So nobody where completetly wrong here.
 * When i was talking about the color of it, i was simply stating personnal preferencies in color matter. It's sure it stand better as it is. — TulipVorlax 21:54, February 6, 2010 (UTC)
