in thread Usergroup wiki links

Well, again - I wouldn't necessarily remove the links — after all, we still have links to the Everything Bible, etc. — but we could de-emphasize them; and add links to the group's homenode, positioning the user at the discussion area.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    Would you still want them to have the (*) to indicate unread messages? Seems unnecessary for mostly dead wikis. It would be nice if the discussion area link got a (*) when the most recent top level comment changed or something like that.

      What's the net benefit of removing the functionality? Is it just site response time you're concerned about?

        Yes, and I have no idea how much impact there is on that. If it's trivial, then just keep them.
