I don't really like having the big long list there... I'd rather it just displays one random thing from a list, sorta like <nowiki>[[User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy/DYK|this]]</nowiki>, and then anyone can add something to the list, and it'll just display one random thing from the entire list.

==Editing an existing DYK?==
Quite simply, how does one edit an existing DYK, as I spotted one (can't remember what it said) that linked to "Spartan (branch)", which is now "[[Spartan Operations]]"? And whilst I'm writing this, I've just seen one about "Installation 04B", which is of course now "[[Installation 08]]" (which I completely disagree with, but that's their decision). Anyway, you get my point. Thanks, [[User:RadiculousJ|RadiculousJ]] ([[User talk:RadiculousJ|talk]]) 15:36, 1 October 2017 (EDT)

Different style of DYK...Edit

I don't really like having the big long list there... I'd rather it just displays one random thing from a list, sorta like [[User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy/DYK|this]], and then anyone can add something to the list, and it'll just display one random thing from the entire list.

Well, now it looks fine, since Mr. Esemono changed the front page a bit. Before, it had this big gap right below it with nothing there. guesty-persony-thingyI too am an AI... my owner's name is Supreme Honcho. 03:26, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
