I want to add these Items right after "What is:" and before "Books and Publications"
:Start [[Planning your first Run]]
:Buy some [[Collection Jars]] and make your [[Flour Seal]]s
:Get to know your [[Cuts]]
:Learn [[How to Blend]]
:Now you can still, make it your own: [[Developing a Flavor Profile]]
:[[Grain Flavor Profiles]] will help you plan your own mash bill
Since this is the Main Page I don't want to make changes without some kind of ok.
It will look like:
Know the Legality of distillation in your area
Safety first! Distillation requires responsibility
Introduction to distilling all manner of spirits
New Distiller's FAQ
What is: Whiskey - Rum - Brandy - Vodka - Gin - Cordials and Liqueurs - Other Spirit types
Start Planning your first Run
Buy some Collection Jars and make your Flour Seals
Get to know your Cuts
Learn How to Blend
Now you can still, make it your own: Developing a Flavor Profile
Grain Flavor Profiles will help you plan your own mash bill
Books and Publications
Tables
Charts
Troubleshooting Guide

Re: Change to Main Page
My only problem with this is making the page too long. I want it to stay concise and a good starting point. Maybe put tables/books/charts etc onto one line like the types of spirits. Or maybe references needs it’s own subsection?
Just thinking out loud.

Re: Change to Main Page
Test page:
http://homedistiller.org/wiki/index.php/index.php ... ge_Sandbox" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" rel="nofollow
What if we took the Beginner's area and made a Beginner's page? That would remove some bulk from the front page.

Re: Change to Main Page
I edited it a bit to consolidate things. The main page, that is. Thoughts?

Re: Change to Main Page
Looks good. I'll keep playing with the sandbox page to see what else we can clean up. It will be a low priority, we've got enough other pages we should mess with first.

Re: Change to Main Page
Found this: {{DISPLAYTITLE:title}}
Check out the sandbox page, I think it looks better than the current hack I put in for the current Main Page:
{{DISPLAYTITLE:Welcome to the HomeDistiller.com Wiki}}
Also found: __NOTOC__ to remove the table of contents. You can use __TOC__ force the TOC where you want it. I put it on the Sandbox page to test it. Change it to __NOTOC__ and you can see the difference. I'm not sure we need a TOC on the main page.

Removed the TOC from the main page. Nice find!
