If you want to steal some code ;-) see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:TOC_right&action=edit
Well we already have that in our wiki :) [1]
IMHO it would look even better with some distance (margin-bottom: 7px;) after each box. However I don't want to change the templates in the wiki for now, therefore I changed it using Firebug ;-) You can see the screenshot on www.cboltz.de/tmp/portal-margin.png
I very much appreciate your comments.IMHO having a number of white spaces in the page/wiki would make a impression of an less-text page, which i dont want want.Apart from this if you have a close then you may see that inside the box and also beside it we already have some space according to the text/layout so as to make the reading possible and make it prominent.Hence the div boxes are very much suitable and applies best to the current situation(initially designed).
Still i would love to have others opinion on this matter :) . As i just made a point from my side.
From my perspective www.cboltz.de/tmp/portal-margin.png with margin-bottom: 7px; really looks better than http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Portal_Template - it's just a minor adjustment but it's more easy on the eyes. Would you please take care of this Shayon?

Well its not a major task to perform :) . But for now IMO lets have the second one for test and comparison with TOCright , then we can sort things out to prepare a second template.As i dont feel that theres actually a need of a second template just for the inclusion of TOCright , but yeah ! its important to provide users with that information so an option/statement below the intro-frame or something similar can be provided in order to guide them better.
Shayon, I just want to have a second template with a right-aligned TOC. I won't provide the users a choice (?). I'm just curious if the one with a right-aligned TOC actually looks better or not and then we can decide if we use the current one OR the one with right-aligned TOC.
I disagree. We'll not transfer 0% semi-verified stuff to the new instance. While we can certainly focus on adopting non-rubbish content to the defined standards at first glance we urgently need to do the QA check for everything we have. ONLY that way we'll be able to stop the mess.
That said, I'm going to post a "call for contributors" to the openSUSE forums and I hope to gain some volunteers for the actual "Article Transition" that way. I'd appreciate very much if wiki seniors could act as mentors here for volunteers that might step up.
Well i focused on transferring the Non-Rubbish content to the new wiki and then check the Articles on the basis on the Article Templates.Never mind ;) , your idea sounds great . Just keep the listed updated with the recent news
