Main Page/Patch Notes

A log of the logic behind my changes to the Halo Fanon Main Page.
*Starting out, I want to shift away from the Reach-era Auntie Dot theme. Yes, a UNSC Intel theme is nice and cohesive for information articles, but it's been here for more than 10 years now. It's not broken, but I do feel it kinda dates us in a way. Like we're the folks who say Reach wasn't canon or something, when Halo has elsewhere shifted away from the military realism of Reach and back toward the space fantasy of walking around an ancient megastructure in space.
*First significant change; removal of the floating image link to Morhek's Fanon Guide. That article hasn't been updated in nigh-on a decade and probably isn't much use to newcomers anymore. Not to mention, we haven't reviewed it to consider if it actually gives newcomers any misdirection.
*Second significant change: removing references to Forum, Blog, and old IRC spaces. They just aren't used anymore, and we shouldn't direct newcomers there with our best foot forward. At best, they'll think we're a dead community because there aren't any from this year, or at worst they'll put effort into posts that go unremarked on. Hesitant though I am to direct people to the Discord, fact is it is the place the community congregates, whether to talk Halo or to pointedly not.
*Removing the Gallery slider. Fandom changed it up so the info only appears over images once the cursor hovers over it, so it's not as forward-facing with its info. Plus, the half-sentence blurbs it allows for aren't enough to convey anything useful about the projects they linked to. Moving the Latest News section to the center in its place will give context and allow for better hooks to casual viewers.
*Did You Know needs to be moved down further; possibly to the right-side column. Happenstance trivia shouldn't be coming before featured articles and award winners.
*Theoretical order should be: Intro, FotM (as it rotates most frequently and incentivizes people to go for it so their creation gets to be up-front on the site's main page), GA (which I need to streamline a bit so new entries can be added easily--and also update the backlog so all those who achieve it are included in the rotation), Writer and Mythic AA (since those are too large to be in the right-side bar. The right-side bar should contain the "Helping Out/Where to Start" box to give newcomers an easy entrance portal, and DYK can hang-out under it to round out its length comparable to Projects in the main column.
*Should The Weekly be in the right sidebar?
