Re: test page

Oh, OK. I was thinking that the default content would be prompts to encourage the reader to edit the page. I added an example in that light.

I like the idea of resetting the page periodically. Maybe with a note that says, “This page will be reset at midnight EST.” or something…

Hey,

As I already told Jen, the revised proposal looks pretty cool.

I think we should fill the Practice Page so it looks like a complete small CSS property (doesn’t need to be an actual real one). Would also be good as a snapshot we can restore later on, if the page gets messed up.


Party on, Wayne.

Excellent, thanks. I've added the link to the practice page on the home page. And I added a bit of content to the practice page. Feel free everyone to add more content — whatever will help people get started.

Great idea!!!!

Done. http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Practice_Page is a CSS Property template, so it has some data sections, and people can play freestyle in the other sections.

Party on, Garth.

When talking with Doug this week, he had the idea of creating a fake page, a test page that anyone could edit when testing out their new WPD account. You know, for new people who are afraid they might break something if they edit the live website. I think it's a great idea.

Could someone make such a page, in whichever place makes sense? I'm happy to fill it with some dummy starter content.
