Now we have so many events planned so far in advance, I think we ought to re-order this so the most imminent events are at the top. I think most people looking at this page will be thinking "what's on in the next few weeks" rather than "what's on in the middle of next year" - so it would make sense for the current month to be at the top, and then proceed chronologically forward into the future... what do people think?

:I agree so much I've just gone ahead and done it. I'm happy to be reverted if people disagree, but even if we don't go with the layout I've used I think we definitely need to change it somehow. Having things happening next year at the top just doesn't make sense. --[[User:Tango|Tango]] ([[User talk:Tango|talk]]) 11:47, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

This layout is quite confusing - reverse chronoological for the months and chronilogical for the days. Could we be consistent? Also would be useful to add day of the week. 213.1.240.149 22:05, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Good point. I've changed it to be reverse chronological throughout (I think it's useful to have the current and future events at the top, whilst retaining the older events). Adding day of the week would indeed be useful; feel free to add these if you like. Alternatively, we could switch to Rock drum's system of calendars, e.g. see {{March 2011}} Mike Peel 22:28, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Ordering?

Now we have so many events planned so far in advance, I think we ought to re-order this so the most imminent events are at the top. I think most people looking at this page will be thinking "what's on in the next few weeks" rather than "what's on in the middle of next year" - so it would make sense for the current month to be at the top, and then proceed chronologically forward into the future... what do people think?

I agree so much I've just gone ahead and done it. I'm happy to be reverted if people disagree, but even if we don't go with the layout I've used I think we definitely need to change it somehow. Having things happening next year at the top just doesn't make sense. --Tango (talk) 11:47, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
