Talk:Main Page

Navigation Links

The navigation bar to the left is below the text of the page on the normal skin. (Fix it by creating an account and selecting a different skin.) Is there another way to fix it? Jargon (n.): _{Special language of a particular group.} 19:38, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Hmm... what do you mean? It always appears in the right position for me. Can you post a screenshot? Note that if you are using IE, that's probably the reason why. Brian 22:03, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it's broken in my Chrome [1]. It works using IE rendering in Chrome though. (Using different skins works too. [2]) Jargon (n.): _{Special language of a particular group.} 22:44, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

File uploads

Is there a reason that File Uploads have been disabled? Some pages may be more effective with visual aids (DFS, for example). Jargon (n.): _{Special language of a particular group.} 22:03, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

It's disabled by default because having it enabled without taking the right precautions leads to security flaws. I have enabled it. Currently it is possible to upload files with the extensions .png, .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .xls, .pdf, .ppt, .tiff, .bmp, .ps, .in, .out, .txt, .pas, .c, .cpp, and .tex. You may request additional file types if necessary. Brian 00:28, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Accounts Required

Wouldn't it be much easier to just ban all IPs from editing? i.e. set all pages to protected (or at least this one) with editing limited to Autoconfirmed users? --Jargon (n.): ^T/_C 23:21, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Done. Brian 23:22, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
