From Rosetta Code

Welcome to Rosetta Code! My name is Mike Mol, and I write C++, Perl and PHP for a living in a small shop catering to specialized industries. I'm the guy on top around here, but, honestly, I do what I can to avoid interfering with the activity of the site. I watch the Recent Changes feed and step in if I feel my input is needed, or if I simply have questions of the folks involved in an existing disucssion. Otherwise, I just keep the server running and try to help the site grow. If you have any questions, drop a line in my talk page or the Village Pump. Chances are, Mwned, Paddy, Kevin Reid, Shin, Neville, PauliKL, MBishop, Ce, IanOsgood or any of the other regulars around here will have input for you, and I don't often disagree. If you need something from me specifically, well, I'm on break for the next twenty or so seconds. :) --Short Circuit 00:17, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Ok but

Ok, but this page exists for a reason, and now Object Serialization is there since I've added needs-review (and now I see someone put an incorrect with explanation); both enough to see the page where people should look to fix things. If you want a special "note" for you, you can watch the page... I've a lot of watched pages, there just to rimind me that I've something to do on them, even though still I've not done that something. I believe the categories should be left alone (unless you want to add specific info about the Tcl language, not about specific example). Anyway this is just my opinion. --ShinTakezou 11:14, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

There's a pool of people doing things for Tcl; the reminder is not just for me, but for others too. (Don't worry so much about transient things, OK?) —Dkf 12:07, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
Isn't this enough? (It already automatically contained the task, even though the page wasn't edited; now it is). I am not worried, tried just to keep things clean and coherent (even though it is not my busyness maybe) --ShinTakezou 13:13, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
It's all gone now anyway. —Dkf 12:37, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
That's a good point, though; That should probably get linked to in the language template. Take a gander at the new beta language template staging ground, and see what you can do. Also see if you can add it to the header template for the unimplemented in X pages. --Short Circuit 22:24, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Language Comparison Table

Hi Donal. Could you have a look at the Language Comparison Table? I had a crack at it a while ago, but I'm sure it would benefit from your perusal. Cheers. --glennj 18:14, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

If you do make changes, could you make corresponding changes to the language pages using the parameters in the language template? Thanks. --Mwn3d 18:31, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

I already was maintaining the parameters in the language template, and the LCT only needed a minor correction (nothing which I thought needed a real change elsewhere). There is a discussion/justification of the categorization parameters on Category talk:Tcl...

Overlapping divs

If you change to the rosetta theme (which I thought was supposed to be default by now) a lot (if not all) of the overlapping div box problems are resolved. --Mwn3d 21:46, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

I merely use the default theme, like most visitors to the site will. —Donal Fellows 21:48, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
I've stopped seriously thinking about the Rosetta Theme myself. I like the colors, layout and text styles, but it has compatibility issues with IE6 that I couldn't get around last time I had time to spend on it. (IE 6 is my current oldest IE browser target. Sadly, I expect it to continue to be fairly common for several more years. It currently accounts for 34% of IE visits, and IE visits account for 22% of overall visits. Oddly enough, IE6 is the version of IE where the user is most likely to go on and use the site, and the most likely version of IE where the user will go on and edit a page. ) Whatever the bit is that fixes the overlapping divs, that should go in MediaWiki:Common.css. --Short Circuit 03:56, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

RCHQ9+/Tcl garbled?

It appears your cut and paste didn't translate well -- the switch statement has gotten garbled. --glennj 20:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

nevermind, I see the talk page there.
