'''[[Proteopedia:About]]''' needs to be written (currently this redirects to the main page but I think we need a separate page linked there) and could include: Who are the people who created Proteopedia? How many articles are currently present? (Answers: There are {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} articles, and {{NUMBEROFUSERS}}.) The fact that Ppda is updated weekly with all new entries in the Protein Data Bank. Contact information for the creators. Perhaps links to Proteopedia:Policies, etc.? [[User:Emartz|Emartz]] 19:24, 28 February 2008 (IST) | |||
Namespace lists: Need a way to list namespaces, and pages within each namespace. Perhaps this should be an item on the the left, similar to "Special Pages". I see no way to list the pages within a namespace (to find out what they are). The "Special pages" do not seem to include such lists. If I use the checkboxes on the search results page to limit a search to the Proteopedia namespace, and search for "proteopedia", I get 4 hits (Troubleshooting, Policy, Wishlist, Problems). But there may be other pages in this namespace that don't explicitly mention the query term, which therefore will not appear on the search results list. Namespaces are rather important for authors to know about. That is why I think a way to list these pages is a high priority. [[User:Emartz|Emartz]] 17:36, 28 February 2008 (IST) | '''Search result ordering:''' list pages that don't begin with a numeral before pages that do. Example: Search for "mhc". The page "Major histocompatibility complex class I" appears almost at the end of the 400-some length list, curiously before 3c9n. [[User:Emartz|Emartz]] 17:36, 28 February 2008 (IST) | ||

Search result ordering: Perhaps PDB code-titled pages should be ordered to show those with the most hits of the search term above those with fewer hits?

Special pages > Categories: This very long list needs a mechanism to jump to a letter of the alphabet. Otherwise, it is unusable because it has tens of thousands of items.
