[edit] Meta:Help:Image page authors and history

• Possible problem with page display - Apparent collision of a navigation bar and the TOC, per Image:WikiScreenshot.PNG. Browser used in screenshot is Firefox 2.0, and this is the only page I've seen where something like this happened. As I'm not (yet) an advanced Wiki coding guru, I thought I'd put it up here and let someone with more experience take a whack at it. --Jackytar 21:46, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

• Bump. I second Jackytar's comment.

[edit] Eh?

This so-called help page is gobbledigook. Can someone please improve the opening paragraphs in particular? --Dweller 22:14, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Standard editing

I have seen headers in fair use rationale that has quotes in the article they are being used - like "Article Name". What's the right? With quotes or not? BritandBeyonce ^{(talk•contribs)} 09:35, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

I think it is better to use quotes but I may be wrong here. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 10:40, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
