I also wonder if we should add the word "community" to the page blurb, to clarify this is not an appropriate place to advertise business sales events? --["Users/robinlaughlin"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-09-29 09:23:20'' [[nbsp]] [wiki:chico "Chico Wiki"] has had an Events tab for some time now. I added it as it seemed there was simply no other way to put it in a prominent space without obliterating the intro paragraphs (and it seemed no one read that anyway). Restaurants was also another tab I added in since it seemed to be one of the most accessed pages; so why not make it super easy to access? Anyway, I think that Events is probably better off being the second tab since most people will be thrown off enough just by having People, Bookmarks, and ESPECIALLY Recent Changes moving one to the right. Moving the Front Page tab over to place an Events tab would probably result in some anger ;-) --["Users/RyanMikulovsky"]

Personally, I think it's so important, I'd place it to the left of the "Front Page" tab so it's easy to find. --["Users/SteveDavison"] --["Users/SteveDavison"]

I deleted them (others who have the ability feel free to do so in the future, too!) --["Users/PhilipNeustrom"] + * I think the line between event and advertisement can be fuzzy sometimes; often the events posted are designed to promote attention for the organization or company (both non-profit and for-profit organizations). If it's a one-time one-day thing, like an event at a winery, restaurant, or other organization, in my opinion I think it should be included. But if it's an on-going promotional thing, then it shouldn't be included. --["Users/ElleWeber"]

Past that, an easier way to navigate events would be appreciated, perhaps a linked calendar which is anchored to a frame on the page. This would have links to anchors of a particular date.

Limit the size of the image. Put a thumbnail up, but not an entire image, so it's easier to scroll through the events. + 2. Limit the number of times a serial event can be posted. Instead of 4 different postings for a Mondavi event that runs four nights, do one posting and post all the dates it's playing. + 3. Highlight the title of the event—increase the font, or BOLD it. This way events with no images and only a few lines of text will still stand out in a crowd. + 4. (Maybe) Limit the types of events so we don't get the "Study Abroad deadline" and such. That isn't exactly something I'm going out to attend on a Thursday night. + 5. (Maybe) Introduce an "edit" function, so after you post an event you can correct typos, update, add an image, etc.

	+ + * Sorry about all the edits yesterday. I was trying to post thru the edit screen and missed seeing the form at the bottom. That's a little confusing. Anyway, now I'm posting an event for the photo club, but the time is screwed up. When i'm logged in it reads 9:00AM (which is correct), when i'm logged out, it reads 2:00AM (which is incorrect). What am I to do?
