Thread:Talk:GlobalProfile/design/Collected Data - Future elements - suggestions/reply (9)

There's no re-activation afaik, I was just looking at the page again, and having ideas, and noting them down in case they were useful later on.

The whole concept has pleasant echoes of iGoogle, which I miss. Useful user-selectable modules.

I really like some of the elements in the old mockups, and I think it would be good to
 * get more examples (because whilst it looks great with Jorm's details, how would it work for others?)
 * of newcomers - showing what a sparse page would/could look like
 * of power-users - showing how adaptable it could be. (eg. my volunteer userpage is an abundance of bookmarks - things that I use daily (which I try to keep above the 'fold'), or things that I want other people to stumble upon)

Relatedly, Enwiki has the ~7 year old w:WP:User page design center which contains some good ideas, and some ghastly aesthetic-mixing, and an overwhelming proliferation of options. I'm horrified that anyone might send a newcomer there, but it's the best breakdown of 'available modules' that I know of.

(Thanks for the link to Project:New contributors, I've watchlisted those pages, and will absorb on a later day.)
