SVG bugs filed: 13494 SVG font scaling bug ("%" and "em" misconverted to "px") and 13495 SVG text attribute "underline" doesn't render. FT2 ( Talk |  email) 04:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC) reply
No problem. MW's rendering of SVG is very poor, so hopefully those bug reports might improve it a bit. Glad I could help! Time3000 ( talk) 15:59, 25 March 2008 (UTC) reply
And another - your other Gecko problems are now solved:
  1. 13580 SVG nesting of <tspan> elements incorrect on Firefox + workaround. (Reworking the SVG to avoid nested <tspan> elements also seems to fix a second bug whereby the text is incorrectly positioned on the page too.)
  2. SVG underline doesn't currently work in Firefox, I did some digging. It seems they just changed text engine and it's not yet written for the new engine.

avi to ogg

I saw you uploaded a few *.ogg videos. Can you please tell me how to convert *.avi-s for example into *.ogg? diego_pmc ( talk) 22:37, 26 March 2008 (UTC) reply

Personally, I use ffmpeg2theora which can convert pretty much anything to theora (the video codec WP uses). This has a command-line interface only - I don't know whether or not that's a problem, but there's a bit about how to use it at Wikipedia_talk:Media#How_to_use_ffmpeg2theora. I don't know of any non-command-line programs, but a search for theora convert on google might throw up something. There's also Wikipedia:Creation_and_usage_of_media_files which might be helpful.

Pro Evolution

I wasn't logged in when i made the change, but you seem to have reverted it. Perhaps you didn't read it, as I don;t think that sentences such as "Konami also have chosen to activate the controversial regional lockout mechanism on the Xbox 360, preventing legitimate buyers to play the game on a region distinct console." belong in a decent wikipedia article.

Hi there! I noticed you were fulfilling a request at the graphics lab to modify the image I uploaded. Next time please notify me if you believe the image is in need of an improvement. Your crop was a bit too tight in my opinion so I cropped a local copy of that picture myself :). Thanks, ¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 21:20, 17 April 2008 (UTC) reply

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend - normally image authors can't or don't want to make changes to the image once they've uploaded it. Looking at it again though, I do agree with the slightly looser crop. Time3000 ( talk) 14:54, 18 April 2008 (UTC) reply

Map of rabies free areas

Hi,

I have no clue when it comes to graphics. I was looking at your map of rabies free areas on the "Rabies" article. The Hawaiian islands should be green as well.

Thanks, -- Bajutsu ( talk) 07:16, 21 March 2009 (UTC) reply

Proposed deletion of List of countries in The Elenium and The Tamuli

The article List of countries in The Elenium and The Tamuli has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Contains only WP:OR plot summary, no coverage by third party sources, fails WP:N. Too large to merge to the articles about the literary works.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{ dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{ dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.  Sandstein  08:53, 9 September 2009 (UTC) reply
