I would like to submit the prototype calendar I made for /DIY/'s pantheon of gods, and perhaps write the article explaining them.
The mascot is to be included in this article when it is created.
So, maybe under stuff, we add a "/diy/ Community" and a sub-article of that could be "Pantheon of Gods" and then I could post the calendar there.

I have no fucking idea how to write markup for a wiki -- sorry if this breaks anything.
I made a page @ http://djf.me.uk/recommended/diy/. It's like a static version of the wiki, presented with the familiar Yotsuba Blue style. Thought it might be useful for something.
Hey, /diy/rchive is dead. We should remove the link or find a new archive.

Links to the installgentoo.net thread archives are shoddy at best, as they only archive the text and the image thumbnail in each post, not the whole image. While I can imagine advantages for this, the big disadvantage is that it undermines the effectiveness and entire fucking point of linking to them, as the images tend to hold, quite literally, the bigger picture as to what the /diy/ project in the threads are about. Readers will only have the textual information to go on, and nothing else save for squinting really hard at their screens to make out what lies in the thumbnails.
Solutions would be to have people go through entire threads devoted to a particular topic, collate and summarize the important points, and write out the relevant articles here on the mac/diy/vers wiki.
By the way, I'm posting this same message both here and on the admin talk page.
