Hi Scottier,

Those results show articles that are considered important to the wiki as a whole, based on what users most often visit. This is influenced by the navigation links on the main page, but those navigation images themselves aren't being recognized, without an actual text element to give them meaning.

Basically, the results will show what most people click through to, but can't show how any links relate to the main page through the images, e.g. that it is highlighted content.

There is also an accessibility reason, e.g. people using screen readers may not understand the link based on the image file name alone.


 * Anyway, I can see that you updated the page with new navigation images that include text labels, so thanks for considering this.

As for the welcome section, the top position is best, just so new visitors understand exactly what they're getting when landing on the main page, it being the most important contextual information. Also, the vast majority of those looking for specific content will more often use Google rather than the internal organic links, so having the navigation images first is less important.


 * Apologies for the long post, just thought I'd explain it a bit more fully.

What I would strongly recommend though is keeping the welcome/mission statement in the intro, i.e. Danganronpa Wiki is a fan-curated database that anyone can contribute. This will help engage potential contributors, and also make clear we're not the game developers, but a fan community.
