Since all the wikis are equal, so it should be the area for manipulating it. But since the main wiki is "more equal" than the others, it's good to show it. I understand the problem of E but I cannot think of another place where to put this menu. What I don't like of E is just the "home" label. Home will become too overloaded. Every wiki has a home, now with that menu there will be a home which is the home of the main wiki. I cannot think of a better alternative besides "Main" that suffers of the same problem (since every wiki has a Main space). Maybe calling it "XWiki" can really be a possible solution. -Fabio and be wikis the logo as was http://xwiki.kephpage.net/proposals/workspaces-menus/new-home-menu.png http://xwiki.kephpage.net/proposals/workspaces-menus/new-home-menu-non-admi… https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/8c1c1bac2cde30f9024525e50249… http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/HomeMenu/HomeM… http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/HomeMenu/HomeM… >> >> "Administer Main Wiki" was proposed as: >> - "Administration" >> or >> - "Administer Home" / "Administrate Home" >> depending if you were located in Home or in the (sub)wiki. >> > > We though this menu was confusing and not consistent with the current are >> in >> > a >> > > (sub)wiki?
