Older design.
Recent design.
My new design.

I made a really modern main page design, do you like new design? If yes put your username at for, if not put your username at against. Leonel Небојша Sohns 14:55, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

  • Thanks for your efforts, but I don't see the need for another redesign at this time. Wikipedia's design works well enough without icons and color changes, and the width-dependent layout takes advantage of different device sizes. I did make it slightly more "modern" by making it responsive regardless of device (Wikipedia's conditional CSS would not have worked here). ❦ Llwy-ar-lawr • talk • contribs • 01:58 30 August 2021
  • OP doesn't reply to my post (Comments below) for a week, and Llwy states that OP's work adds gratuitous new deviations from Wikipedia. So I second Llwy. Again, we don't have to exactly look like Wikipedia, but if we diverge, it has to be for a real reason. Spıke 🎙️02:37 30-Aug-21
  • Symbol against vote.svg Against. Your design emphasizes sectional organization too much, making the page longer to scroll through. Using icons (like French Uncyclopedia currently does) is an innovative idea — but until Wikipedia uses icons on the Main Page, we'd look too different to make a convincing parody. I commend your originality and effort, though! Dark Web, White Hat (talk) 06:09, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

Admin Llwy-ar-lawr recoded the Main Page just this month, for the exact purpose of making it more closely resemble current Wikipedia, notably on mobile devices. See Forum:New main page layout. If you are saying she got it wrong, I await her response. If you are not saying she got it wrong, then please describe the point of your work, apart from being "really modern". My opinion is that stylistic alignment of Uncyclopedia to Wikipedia is always desirable to reinforce our global comedy strategy of being a parody of Wikipedia — although less vital than that we continue to write funny stuff that is funny no matter how it is rendered.
