2020 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary: 60F10 [MSN][ZBL]

Future Site Development: (Requires Prioritization)

Feedback – Development Items

• New User landing environment (welcome template / info page) with admin-configurable defaults

- User can enter their personal details

- (other features TBD)

additional notes

• Publish a description of the username rules on the registration page

• History pages should display time stamps in UTC not CET

• Reorganization of Namespace:

- Main should only contain encyclopedic articles

- Rename Encyclopedia of Mathematics namespace to EOM

- Place all non-encyclopedic pages in the EOM namespace

- Place the project talk page at “EOM:Talk:This Project”

• Grant users the right to edit pages within Talk namesubspaces.

• Administrators should have the ability to change the editing restrictions on a particular page independent of namespace rules.

• Some Administrator rights should be granted to Editorial-Board members as well (List of rights TBD)

• Modify CSS in order to wrap article text to match viewport width.

Notes relating to user intro pages

(Taken from an email by Ulf sent on 12/4/2011)

“Here is my intro page on en.wikipedia.org: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Urehmann

It allows me to say something about me. I have almost left it as it was, except that I modified a bit the part "About me".

Here is the user page of some colleague, which is much more elaborated: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tsirel

What I think of is that we draft a template page (which is edible by me) a copy of which appears as a template for each new user, allowing to give a little info. For example, there should be a field which informs about the special research fields of the user, in keywords as well as in Math Subject Classification.

Also, there could be a field in which the names of pages could be included for which the user (e.g., an editor) could list the pages for which the user feels responsible.

So: As a template, the page should be edible by me, and the local copy should be edited by the user.”
