(Redirected from User:Aron Manning/Site navigation sidebar)
Rethinking the order and the contents of the navigation sidebar to prioritize links needed by readers, casual and new users to
- find help with any issues they experience,
- find the right forums / boards to get in contact with editors,
- find the actualities,
- navigate the content: find articles, projects,
- learn about editing: find manuals, guides, policies.
The numbers represent the order on Vector's sidebar on English wikipedia. "A.*" indexes are new to the proposed Article tools menu.
