Talk:Admin Dashboard FAQ

Where Is The Admin Dashboard Located?
I have spent an hour researching how to locate the admin dashboard so that, as an Adminstrator on the Matchbox Cars Wiki, I can make some changes. All I find is that it tells me it can be accessed from the toolbar at the bottom of each page. But, there is no toolbar at the bottom of the page. How else can it be accessed?

 * Hi Fandyllic, I want to keep all feedback and input in one place. This is mainly so no feedback gets lost. I am documenting everything so I have data. Also the engineers know to check the blog post -- they don't necessarily know to look around Community to find feedback. If there is something I am missing as why this should be a blog post, I'm open to talk about it. --Meighan http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 21:29, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Inexperienced admins and users barely know talk pages exist, but comments are obvious. I also made Admin Forum:Admin Dashboard FAQ feedback and suggestions, so feedback could be given at the Admin Central forums. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 12 Aug 2011 9:02 AM Pacific

On the colour scheme
This is the one thing that looks horrible, RecentChanges looks bad on any wiki that's had any themes whatsoever, particularly so on a dark skin. There are a couple of problems with this "consistency" argument that I see: Hopefully future changes will import the background colour, (as well as link colours), and so this will come as a non-issue, but as it stands at the moment, I don't buy the "consistency" argument for a second. --  Random Time  21:14, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Non sysops see styled special pages.
 * People are used to seeing pages in their wiki skin, I fail to see how making it "default white" will help people distuingiush tools from content, especially as non-sysops see these "tools" in the default skin (see above).


 * Randometime, all good points. As I mentioned in my latest blog post we're aware of the themeing issues. I've added this feedback to my page where I am documenting everything you guys report back. Also, I would envourage you to leave this feedback on the blog post -- as the engineers who are following the blog will see it. It's really important that we try & keep feedback all oin one place so it does not get lost. Any questions you have hit me up via chat. --Meighan http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 21:24, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
