Thread: favicon for wiki site
Currently the postgresql wiki site lacks a favicon (http://wiki.postgresql.org/favicon.ico) With multi-tabbed browsers, the favicon is very handy for finding the desired page when it is already open. If there is no icon specifically for wiki.postgresql.org, would the one from http://www.postgresql.org/favicon.ico be used? I think that that option is better than not having one at all. Cheers, Jeff

Any objections to using this or is anybody motivated enough to create a wiki-specific one? Stefan

I'd say just use the main site favicon. I don't imagine that differentiating the main site from the wiki is going to be a serious issue for many people. Cheers, BJ

Besides, with so many people complaining about the poor SEO ranking of the wiki, perhaps we should consider merging the namespaces (so www.postgresql.org/wiki) in which case a different favicon would be lost. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
