:Hi Wolf – and Happy New Year to you :) In trying to 'improve' [[WikiIndex]], particularly in the internal '[[wiki Links|wikilinks]]' aspect, I've been reading talk pages to see which way discussions and concensus was heading – but many seemed devioid of wikilinks (maybe because these were shortly after the 'birth' of WikiIndex, and said pages and/or templates had yet to be created)! The tidying is primarily adding these wikilinks (which are one of the fundamentals of a 'good' wiki, help prevent duplicate entries being created, and give pointers to future readers of talk pages); and the removal of excessive whitespace – with the aid of the <code><nowiki>{{TOCright}}</nowiki></code> (excessive whitespace is a pain in the rear on low resolution or smaller monitor screens such as netbooks, tablets (iPads and the likes) and smartphones - because you end up having to scroll excessively).<br> | :Hi Wolf – and Happy New Year to you :) In trying to 'improve' [[WikiIndex]], particularly in the internal '[[wiki Links|wikilinks]]' aspect, I've been reading talk pages to see which way discussions and concensus was heading – but many seemed devioid of wikilinks (maybe because these were shortly after the 'birth' of WikiIndex, and said pages and/or templates had yet to be created)!

:I do not understand your concern over this: <code>== Headline ==</code> – and the different effects it creates between this: <code>==Headline==</code> ?? I ''was'' aware of some older browsers (particularly early Firefox versions) had problems rendering certain web codes – but I thought those issues had been resolved! I personally use either IE8, Comodo Dragon 16 (based on Google Chrome) or Firefox 8.0 – and don't have any issues of display rendering. Perhaps I have mis-understood, if I have, would you be kind enough to explain further. – Best regards, --[[User:Hoof Hearted|Hoof Hearted]] 06:54, 2 January 2012 (PST) | :I do not understand your concern over this: <code>== Headline ==</code> – and the different effects it creates between this: <code>==Headline==</code> ??

:: Regarding the space next to the headings: I referred to wikitext readability, not HTML rendering. ...and Happy New Year to ''you'' :-) <br/> Best regards [[Wolf Peuker|Wolf]] | <small>[[User talk:Peu|talk]]</small> 13:11, 3 January 2012 (PST) | |||

Is there a means to contact you off wiki as I have a question for you that you might be able to answer for me as you seem to understand MediaWiki? Thanks in advance!
