For the CS:GO division of Liquipedia:

Would it be possible to make the contents section be collapsible/minimizible so that it doesn't shift everything to the right? So the main content is aligned to the left instead of to the right, but still allow the contents tab to be opened and closed whenever.

Remove the "contents" tab from the left and let it on the same place as always, on the top of the article. It's unecessary big and I don't think many people uses it (unless it's a big article).

I'd agree that for probably the majority of articles currently, the TOC in general is pretty pointless. For our larger articles, like actually fleshed our player/team profiles, and big tournaments, it is useful, but I don't think that is a majority of pages.

It's not a bad thing to have that functionality in place in the hopes that more player and team pages get fleshed out.. but perhaps we could look into something to better use the space when the page doesn't need it.

We can track the usage of the sidebar TOC and if we see that it's a feature that is not used we will revise our design.

You're not stupid. The StarCraft II news section is out of the front page.

Its contents are archived here: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Liquipedia:StarCraft_II_News

Was randomly browsing Liquipedia when I came across this:

[image loading]

If my browser isn't maximized, the header text gets pushed and extended which then covers up the top of the article. This is frustratingly dumb. It happens on any article where the header has that many menu buttons (such as Artosis' page, but not Tasteless').

Why are the menus so different between articles?

Sorry, I'm dumb and forgot to add that. Chrome, 57.0.2987.133. Currently updating as I speak.

Edit: Now on latest version. Chrome, 58.0.3029.81.

Edit x2: Checking extensions now.

Edit x3: Removed all extensions. The top advertisement is actually hidden by the huge menu, even when my browser is maximized. If I put uBlock Origin back on, the page gets shifted all the way to the top behind the header menu.

Edit x4: Also happens on Firefox.

Add a ?action=purge to the URL and purge the page, this will fix it

Hello! I think you guys should add a Madden division on this esporst wikipedia. The scene has grown a lot the past year and huge prize pool are being given to this esports scene. There was three 200 000$ major and there is a 500 000$ championship coming in next month.

Hopefully you'll consider that!

Thanks!

The table of contents sidebar should be half the size or removed altogether.

I'd have to agree. There's so much wasted space. It's specially bad when my browser isn't maximized. I don't even know how you do that.

Well some of that is an ad spot. You will understand that we will not put in extra work to make the experience better when the problem is adblocker

Requesting format changes to the following pages so they match the current format so I can include proper vod links.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Arena_of_Legends_1
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Arena_of_Legends/Team_Ace_Invitational
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2011_Global_StarCraft_II_League_August/Code_S

The groups use the old style formatting and need updating. This will allow me to start replacing all dead GOM vod links from 2011-2013 with working YouTube links.
