We're commenting just on the design of wiki.lojban.org? I still think it's much too cluttered to be used as a main page. That "toolbar" thing at the top (with the 3d button and print and export to pdf and such) is superfluous to the vast majority of visitors. The left side containing all the toolbars should be in a font at least one size smaller (like, small or x-small instead of medium). In the default color scheme, the blue headers of the bars draw way too much attention to them, when the attention should be first drawn to the content in the center. The toolbar headers need to be much lower contrast, or there should be a different background or border around the main body to make it draw the eye.
