Adding broad topic box to main page: A new section on the main page has been suggested to encourage editing of more topics. This box would contain broad topics that may persuade a reader to become an editor. Some argue that this will not serve the purpose that it was intended to serve.
Personal Image Filter: An image filter that lets users toggle images on and off is being proposed. So far users have supported the idea but have yet to agree upon a way of achieving it.
Main page redesign: A competition has begun to find a better alternative to the current main page, which was last redesigned in March 2006.
Enable HotCat for all: HotCat has been suggested to be turned on for all users to aid in the process of categorizing Wikipedia. Arguments against the proposal include the lack of double check feature and no way for administrators to remove it from someone that abuses that feature.
