So I made a user page thing and I was wondering if 'move' is the right action so I can continue making new articles?
Also I have yet to find the VODs for that article if there is any. I'm not good at digging up old VODs

I'm not good at digging up old VODs You can create an unlimited amount of user pages: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/User:C3rberUs/Sandbox1 http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/User:C3rberUs/Sandbox2 (assuming your id on Liquipedia is also c3rberUs) and so on...
If you are unsure about whether your article is good enough to go into the Main space, you can post it here and we will look at it, and tell you if it is.
Finally, for the VODs, you can jump into the #liquipedia IRC channel, and ask if people in there have VODs for your article (which I guess is a Strategy article). People in this channel can also give you a quick feedback on your article.

Might be best to also make it within your userspace but not actually your userpage itself, so you can have a personal page on the wiki that doesnt redirect to a page you placed into mainspace. See difference between User:C3rberus and User:C3rberus/Sandbox1

I was just passing by to say that the home page looks amazing now and the improvement of the tournament section on the right is very very cool (no need to search through all the line to find which event is done and which one is on-going).
Keep up the good work, it's cool to see improvements on liquipedia.

Thank you, I'm rather pleased with how it's turning out as well.

would it be possible toadd sponsors to player/team threads? I realise that some sponsors may be in competition with liquid ones, but liquipedia is seperate from TL and liquidpro surely?
I came across this when looking for a new keyboard and was wondering which teams I would be assisting with product x/y

Feedback regarding the new Liquidpedia 2 front page.
1: One thing I liked better on the old design is that for "short tournaments" (IPL, Dreamhack etc.) is that it said between which dates it took place. That looked better then it currently does, but I like how it looks for ongoing tournaments.
2: Among the news section, could we in the summary box have something that says who is currently shown (Boxer as of writing this), similar to how Wikipedia does it with their In the news?

I am in love with the new look on the main liquipedia page. The tournaments are no longer kind of a jumbled mess of random LANs and Leagues, and it looks really really good. Much easier for people to keep track of. Keep up the great work :3

1. The problem with 2 dates is when it crosses month lines where we need to write out two months adding 8 characters to a line, we're already pressed for horizontal space in the layout. If someone has an idea for this we might be able to do something.
2. Yeah, we're going to try and rethink how we do the images, as the current system isn't really going to work, I don't think.

Thank you, that was one of the points we tried to address with the change, feels good that it worked out as intended.

As far as I can tell, all Wikipedia does for their feature is place (pictured) next to the name of the relevant person or whatever, this is easily done.

Another thing I miss on the new design is that it doesn't say what specific WCS is currently going on. I really like that

I love the new homepage, especially the ongoing/upcoming/recent.
I think a good feature would be to link to recent replays. Often on the tournament pages there will be a link to replays, why not highlight the recent replay links from major tournaments on the homepage?

i got legitimately schooled by @liquipedianet on twitter (was that you Salle?) so i started studying the templates that i might become a positive liquipedia contributor. recent results is where i want to focus on, and i noticed there wasn't any specific templates or guidelines for that section. could you guys make some guides for that section?

Not sure who replied to you on twitter except that it wasn't me. It could be any staff member.
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Recent_Tournament_Results is essentially a page that includes the content of two other pages, one is the results for the current week and one is for the previous week. Once a week the code of this page is edited to change the name of the included pages.
The actual results for this week are stored on http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Results/2012/August_20th_-_26th for example. The code for these pages is not really "pretty" because unfortunately we did not create templates for it. The page starts off with a bunch of html code to stylize the special horizontal table of contents, but after that comes the wikicode with the first header being "== [[Premier Tournaments]] ==" From this point on it is pretty straight forward, we have the large table for each event with a 420px width and inside that is a nested table with 413px width. In the nested table we have a header cell (designated by the ! as the first character, opposed to an | ) spanning 4 columns and after that the 4 cells of the table with player, result, result, player.
This code is not easy to generate on your own if you are new to the wiki, however it is almost completely copypaste-able as long as the tournaments are similar (some tournaments for teams, or with group stages have different code)
So to start off, find a tournament in the result pages which is similar to the one you want to add, click edit on its section, copy the code, go back to where you want to put the new tournament, paste the code, change all the names and and you're done
