| **The very first item besides the name of the Misplaced Pages webpage (and globe graphic) that should be evident is the Search Box. | |||
| **In addition, consider that Nouveau-Users (everyone's parents) are used to seeing Only One Thing In AOL (et.al): a search text box. | |||
| **Since this one is not across the entire top of the page (recommended as well) or solely prominent (Google, et.al), it maybe it needs to be in a shaded box, in bold, or with a descriptive moniker. | |||
| **Can someone can also fix the Box Class right border? It's not the width=17... | |||

Reasons behind the changes (optimal version)
- Navigation box -- repurposed as a reader-oriented set of browsing links
- Featured articles replaced by Featured content
- Portals and Categories links added
- Interact box -- created, to seperate the non-encyclopedic sidebar links
- Questions link added
- Toolbox --
- separated the contextual/local links (top) from the fixed/global links (bottom)
- moved the Recent changes link to here, from the navigation box, as contextually appropriate.
- reorganised to place "Cite this article" and other reader-oriented links at the top. (a straight reversal of current ordering)
Toolbox variants - for user pages, and other instances
On user pages ("Cite this article" is replaced by "User contributions" and "E-mail this user")
Toolbox- User contributions
- E-mail this user
- Permanent link
- Printable version
- Related changes
- What links here
On special pages
and so on, for the "Block user", "rss atom", and "trackbacklink" links.
