Wikipedia Ad?
Random Thought Time: I wondered to myself a few minutes ago, "Hmmm, does the CVU have a Wikipedia Ad inviting users to join the force?" I checked out the list at Template:Wikipedia_ads and didn't seem to find one. Is this something on the agenda, or have you guys previously discussed this, or is this completely new and does someone have any interest in working on this? If we want an ad, I'd be happy to do/collaborate on one - I'm actually a graphic designer by trade. But, just curious, let me know! :)  Theopolisme  TALK 04:08, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's a bad idea. Maybe to 'advertise' the new divisions we have. Just an idea. I wouldn't mind seeing a 'Kipedia Ad.Achowat (talk) 12:50, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I may mess around with something then.  Theopolisme  TALK 15:05, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Completely new idea, but a very good idea. I would definetly like to see what you come up with. Dan653 (talk) 02:42, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Argh, the stress! Busy with some other real design work right now, but I'll get cracking hopefully over the weekend and post what I come up with.  Theopolisme  TALK 03:18, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
