Re: Re: Replacing the standard wikipedia logo on the Hebrew wikipedia

Here is the screenshots. someone that cares about browser compatibility and all that shebang do something about it if you care. I don't read bi-di hebrew or particularily care about people using IE (the only reason i happened to stumble upon this is because OE autmatically opens links in IE ) or care to fight with html.. so good luck!! Dont complain about my IE not being up to date either, all the bi-di and hebrew shebang is installed, just look at how the scroll bar is on the _left_ side and all the other stuff is like that too, and its characters, not little boxes.... hope you people don't mind the attachments, i compressed them quite a bit, so don't cry, its only like 30k.

If the project leadership decides that Wikipedias are not allowed to change their default skin, they are not allowed to do that, and any change to that effect will be reverted. If, however, the project leadership approves of giving each wiki the right to change the default skin, this is indeed a choice you can make. Regards, Erik

Bug list for Hebrew wikipedia

Note: this has nothing to do with the previous debate over layout/logo policies etc. and I am currently the only person who gives feedback for users for these problems: The following bugs or support issues were reported by users and verified (most has to do with right-to-left issues, not all are solvable): * In Mozilla (only), spacing (:), dots (*) and definitions don't show up properly (they are tied to the right, ie. not structured properly) -- probably due to partial RTL support, apparently not solvable. * In IE, After entering a special page (statistics, orphans, etc.) and pressing "Back" and then "Forward", the browser doesn't return to the special page. It seems that the URL is broken (bad encoding probably) -- I don't know if this is solvable, (I know, IE sucks, but works best with the site due to the bug above) :-) * TeX markup looks written backward when presented as HTML. -- *Highest priority to fix*. Either <div dir=ltr> is added to all formulas or TeX should be always rendered as PNG (I already tell users to change to that option in prefs, but there is currently no solution for anonymous users except changing the defaults) * With the sliding bar on the left (for hebrew), Konqourer shows pages much wider than necassery. -- Don't know about this, I don't use linux but may be a browser support issue. The user who reported this said this is becuase the site doesn't use W3C HTML. (don't know if that's true) * Enhanced recent changes shows left to right and small icons for opening/collapsing don't show (i.e. not usable right now) -- Not urgent to fix right now, but may be easy. That's about it. The most urgent one is the problem with TeX (should always show as PNG for anonymous and registered users). Fixing the IE problem with "back" "forward" would also be nice (if possible). Cheers, Rotem
