Summary:

Shall we feature GOI formats?

Main Page features - four at a time

Okay, so Roget mentioned to me that instead of using big lengthwise white boxes to note event-featured works, we can have four boxes on the main page. That way, there will be a space for the event-featured works, and a place we can use to showcase monthly GOI-format features as well.

I'm thinking that the GOI-format box would link to both an archive for the featured GOI-formats, and also the GOI page? Any other suggestions? Y/N on GOI format features on front page?

If everyone's all for it, I'll be implementing the new format for May.

This is a good idea. That's all I really have to say atm.

I know that a lot of GoI Format makers have been hoping a change like this would come around. I'm all for this.

I think more exposure for GoI formats can encourage potential authors to make them, and give them the relevance they need.

Alright, the four-block features have gone live! Happy May Day!

Currently, there is no GoI-format archive yet. I've put in a link to the list of GoIs, since not all our readers know what those are. I'm thinking that when the archive does go up, I'll still link to the GoI format list so it's there for easy access for the curious?

I think that will be a suitable arrangement, at least until GoIs become more mainstream and we have that critical mass of GoI articles.
