To report an error on today's or tomorrow's Main Page, please add it to the appropriate section below.
- Where is the error? An exact quote of all or part of the text in question will help.
- Offer a correction if possible.
- References are helpful, especially when reporting an obscure factual or grammatical error.
- Time zones: The current date and time is displayed in Coordinated Universal Time (00:05 on 24 Nov 2015), not adjusted to your local time zone.
- Do not use {{edit protected}}, which will not give you a faster response, and in fact causes problems if used here. (See the bottom of this revision for an example.)
- Done? Once an error has been fixed, or has rotated off the Main Page, or has been acknowledged as not an error, the error report will be removed from this page; please check the page's history for discussion and action taken.
- No chit-chat: Lengthy discussions should be moved to a suitable location elsewhere.

Renaming the page[edit]
I think this page should be called the 'Front Page' as there is nothing 'Main' about it. opinions?178.104.65.199 (talk) 01:25, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- There's isn't anything 'front' about it either. 117.192.180.140 (talk) 10:00, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
- Perhaps "Landing Page"?
- Perhaps "Glad you made, stay a while page"? The Rambling Man (talk) 20:58, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Space for "In the news"[edit]
Just a quick query, sometimes ITN has to become the fall guy and remove items to balance the main page up, usually because DYK has created an imbalance. It's odd to me that ITN (usually) has by far the smallest section of the main page when it's most likely to be the section that attracts passers by. Currently, there are some editors rejecting perfectly newsworthy stories because ITN doesn't have the real estate to cope with the recent surge in successful nominations. Clearly it's not something ITN can handle locally as it impacts the balance of the main page (something which It think I've only ever seen ITN editors being concerned about, by the way). I'm not looking to upset the apple cart, but I'd be interested in hearing if we could get some kind of consensus to allow ITN to expand a bit, even if that means we expand the TFA blurb, OTD and DYK sections.

TFA section "By email" link[edit]
I've been doing this thing for more than ten years and I've just noticed something called "By email" in the TFA section. Does this actually work, do we have statistics that suggest this is a helpful link? The Rambling Man (talk) 21:10, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
- Pinging list administrators Rjd0060 and Matthewrbowker who might be able to tell us how many live email addresses are subscribed? Stephen 23:47, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
