Revision as of 20:56, 2 December 2009
"Wrong order"?
That's the way I've been doing it the whole time I've been here; newest day of seven on top, add new items to the bottom of their day, use whichever of the images from the first articles of the day is best*
*mostly based on whim

- I thought it was the newest goes on top and uses that picture. I sometimes use the "Other New Articles" page. — Chris

- Strictly speaking there's no rule on where in the section it goes or which of the images to use, so long as the articles all go up, there's an image from the most recent day (if one exists**) and there's only seven days there. - Quolnok 05:07, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- **otherwise keep the old one. - Quolnok 11:36, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
- Can anyone shed some light on this? — Chris
