Idea about these

there's been a bit of moaning about these, which is that they tend to draw unwarranted attention to our shorter and crappier articles. Perhaps we should get rid of the randomiser bit and jest have each box showcase the best (least bad) articles in that set? Sophie^Wilder 16:48, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

A better idea would be to strive towards everything being of an acceptable standard. If you notice something crappy appearing in a navigation template, either improve it or nominate it for deletion/funspace/whatever. Wéáśéĺóíď^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 17:27, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

Another randomizer idea, how about we make sure the randomized article list doesn't have repeats of articles in it? I don't know how wikicode, but it doesn't seem difficult to make a for loop and if the new one is equal to an earlier one, just rerandomize it until it works149.19.41.38 (talk) 17:30, 10 March 2022 (UTC)Bumpf
