You might have noticed that the table formatting has changed. It's slowly being converted to pull the information from the individual wiki pages for a skin. Normal (manual) entries for skins without a wiki page will still work. To change info for a skin that has a wiki page, go to that wiki page and edit the section called "Special skin features". Now the features will be listed in both places with one edit. If you have any questions/concerns then please PM Ned Scott on the forums or leave a message on User talk:Ned Scott.

Another downside to this is that it makes it harder to add a new feature column due to the complex templates being used. However, just let me know if another one needs to be added/removed/whatever, and I can make the change ASAP (or feel free to learn the crazy dark magic of wiki templates and parser functions). -- Ned Scott 17:25, 9 February 2012 (EST)

possible additions

Maybe add:

  • Cinema Experience
  • Global Search
  • Weather Plus

In general I think the layout could use some re-arranging. Adding new columns will make a very wide table. Maybe it needs some splitting up to make it better readable (don't ask me how though)

New module for skins to use

Random and last items of video smartplaylist script for Skins

Watchlists/Global search also have their own wiki page so better point to that one
