 +The results of the vote carried out by members of OT via email to the 6th Feb 2015 are that the wikipedia style template (monobook) was the favourite, although not quite a majority view. [[:​user:​kempj:​start]] will be looking into a method of allowing people to choose their own template. However until then the winning template will be used.

 This template is actually called Monobook but it is designed to mimic the interface for wikipedia, probably the most famous wiki in the world. It adds a semi-static left hand navigation bar and also a site notice facility across the top of the page. The main pages are then loaded into the frame. This brings advantages in navigation, but at a cost of slightly less space for page content. There is a toolbox section which gives you some additional functionality not included in the other two templates. Notably a '​backlinks'​ feature and printer friendly version without the sidebars. All the user menu and page actions are at the top of the page and the bottom of the page is only for information. ​ This template is actually called Monobook but it is designed to mimic the interface for wikipedia, probably the most famous wiki in the world.
