Main page

Methinks the main page needs some attention soon. Right now, it is slightly confusing to have a bunch of links in the top right hand corner of the page, but the login link on the left.

Secondly, some items the navigation frame on the left todays points to the english version of Wikitravel. This is in itself OK, but I think we should have a somewhat more "language-neutral" navigation bar. So, the main page should not be linked to en: but instead to Extra. This means the "Extra home" link could be moved upwards. Plus, there should be a frame with links to the main page of all language versions.

Strategy

Take a look at the multilingual strategy at http://extra.wikitravel.org/node/83 -- we actually want to do some smart stuff for helping users move between extra and the different language versions of the guides. Right now extra is only in English, so the links only point to that version of Wikitravel.

The reason the links may be a little confusing is because we want the global navigation to stay the same between Extra and the main site. We'll soon be adding the Extra link to that same area on all Wikitravel pages.

I think you're right about moving the logout link-- I'll see how that looks.

Thanks again for the feedback! maj
