Show preview
Is there a reason to make so many minor changes / saves instead of using the Show preview button? --DCLXVI 06:38, 2 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry. It is because a crowd of people argue about how those pages should be, and tell me to submit them time after time. Otherwise I'm not clear enough on Category and the Babel templates, so I have to test if it is all right. I will pay attention on it from now on. - upssdr  talk 07:00, 2 Jul 2005 (UTC)

CSS modifications
Hi there! I was responsible for making the modifications on Creatures Wiki. You can see how the modifications were done on Creatures:Mediawiki:Monobook.css - I have put comments in to show the different areas affected by the code.

Your own wiki can be changed for everyone by modifying the Mediawiki:Monobook.css and you should be able to test your changes on your own account (and not for everyone else) by changing the page User:Upssdr/Monobook.css (that links to your user CSS on this wiki, and will not affect other ones). You will need to know CSS if you wish to make different edits - I had to learn it myself to do the things that have been done!

To get pictures, I uploaded them to the wiki, and protected them, and then got the URL of the uploaded image and put it in the CSS. It seems to stay constant.

There are a few suggestions of changes here. Good luck! -- 02:40, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Template:Babelbox2
Hi! I think I have adequate Babel boxes, but your new invention looks good. You're welcome to replace mine with yours to give it more publicity if you like.

I must question the idea that nobody can understand more than 10 languages. I got a good grasp of four new ones over a mere 8 years of part-time study (ie no more than 200 hours a year on each). Anyone could get three times that number, and more, with appropriate concentration and only a few additional years. Kia ora! Robin Patterson 03:44, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)
