The mysterious Header toggle button

[edit]

When proofreading in the Page: namespace and one has their toolbar turned on, one will see the button , and clicking it toggles the header/footer on and off. In this space we put the relevant components for top and bottoms of pages by use of the template {{RunningHeader}}, so for example {{RunningHeader|Stanhope|3|Stanhope}} produces

Stanhope
3
Stanhope

I personally have my header/footer set to open in the Page: namespace and I achieved this by activating that option in my Gadgets. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:34, 28 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

You are doing beautifully, and have not mucked up anything. The system has a learning curve and is a little quirky (so are the people, come to that) and that is one feature curve that is regularly missed.
At WS we like to pride ourselves that we help new-comers to settle in and find something that tickles their fancy, so in that regard you are welcome. — billinghurst sDrewth 00:57, 29 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Images extracted from DJVUs

[edit]

Hi! I noticed you uploaded some drop initials for Crainquebille, Putois, Riquet and other profitable tales, and that they were extracted from the DJVU. DJVU is a compressed format optimised for text, and as such, images are badly damaged by being made into a DJVU:

From DJVU From the PDF that the DJVU came from

Notice the compression artifacts, blockiness and low quality of the former. If possible, in future, try to take the image from the most original source you have to hand, in this case, the PDF. Also, it is preferred to upload to Commons, so other projects can use that file. If you need any help, be sure to ask me! Inductiveloadtalk/contribs 04:53, 8 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

proofreading

[edit]

Cheers for your proofreading, I don't know how I overlooked prune as prime :P Cygnis insignis (talk) 16:36, 20 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I must admit that "prune" sounded better... IncognitoErgoSum (talk) 17:54, 20 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Quick!

[edit]

It is almost like you have been hovering waiting for the new month. wink If you are interested in nominating something for a future month, it would be great to have your input at Wikisource talk:Proofread of the Month. — billinghurst sDrewth 15:30, 31 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
