==Turning questions into articles==
 
I've been thinking of more ways to drum up some interest/activity here. The page [[Turning questions into articles]] is an excellent concept and could be a really good way to show someone new to the wiki just how easily an article can be started. Could it be made more visible? Maybe a link on the Main page, or as part of the [[9 things you need to know about the Crankshaft Coalition wiki]], or ?--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 02:25, 19 April 2012 (MDT)
 
:The actual page itself probably wouldn't work, as-is (it's almost like an internal memo), but the ''concept'' is a good one.--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 01:48, 22 April 2012 (MDT)

Jon, it would be nice if when navigating away from a page by clicking on a link, etc. (like when clicking on the AMC V-8s page from the "Engine" page as an example), that when using the back button to return to the original (Engine) page that the position of the page would be the same as where it was when the page was left, and not just be returned to the top of the page. I don't know if 'anchor links' is what would do this or what, I only briefly researched it before appealing to you.--[[User:Cobalt327|Cobalt327]] 22:21, 28 April 2012 (MDT)

:By my understanding, we aren't going to be able to do this "server-side", by altering anything on our end, and that it's a "client-side", browser-dependent issue. When I use Safari as my browser, using the back button returns me to the position of the page when it was left.--[[User:Jon|Jon]] 22:48, 28 April 2012 (MDT)
