Since then Plaid Cymru have changed their colours. The change has been updated on most pages that mention the party. Because the design is a .png image and not a table I have no idea how to alter it. Would you be able to change it please? ] (]) 20:52, 24 April 2008 (UTC) |

I'm not sure I like the idea. Having only one title blue linked would look weird. It might also inspire other users to add links to things that segments parody. -- ]<sup>]</sup> 17:24, 27 November 2008 (UTC) |

== Murky Most Horrid == |
|
|
|
|
|
(Sorry I missed your note for a while.) I'm not 100% sure where I found a suggestion that Mr Smith created ''Murder Most Horrid''. I suppose it could have simply been IMDb, which is not always entirely accurate... I don't see it corroborated - or contradicted - elsewhere, though, so it may have to come out. My DVD and videos aren't to hand, so I'll have to assume that if you can't find it, it's not on those, and then could be inaccurate. ] (]) 17:39, 7 December 2008 (UTC) |

== Road sign images == |
|
|
|
|
|
The road sign images were produced to the Department for Transport specifications, which have a small space between the letter and the numbers, and also have different widths for different numbers (e.g. '1' is narrower than most, and '8' is wider than most of the numbers. |
|
|
|
|
|
The boxes widths are adjusted to the width of the text within - but the template currently makes all the images the same height, making them appear a bit odd. |
|
|
|
|
|
It could do with changing to something like this, where the images are a fixed height rather than a fixed width: |

"There isn't a need to delete an entire statement just because the current reference isn't good enough" - You are correct. But it was needful to delete the entire statement. The most courteous way to tell someone that is to say words to the effect that it will need a ] to be included. |
|
|
|
|
|
"(Having said that, I am finding it bizarrely difficult to find an online reference that isn't a blog, but I am still looking.)" - Indeed. This is a thought experiment, useful for helping illustrate the size of powers of 2, or exponential growth in general. |

:No, I cannot, really. It has already been said in the gentlest way possible, and I don't want to be biting. In order to be included, the statement needs a ]. I do expect you will have great difficulty finding a ] that says it is possible to fold a piece of paper in half 100 times, and states the final size of the object.] (]) 13:50, 12 January 2009 (UTC) |

:::Ah, timing. I had removed the flag and reworded it so I think it is supported by the link. The last fold would take "a few" billion years to complete, too, if it could be done. If we could "swing" the fold at .1 lights, it would take (wildly rough numbers)3.14*(440x10^24)^2 years... using inertialess paper. Ah well, it is a fun thought.] (]) 15:57, 12 January 2009 (UTC) |

== (ceremonial) Buckinghamshire == |
|
|
|
|

The ] article as it currently stands is almost entirely about the admin county, not the historic county. It is misleading to direct readers from MK articles to it as it stands, because it explicitly excludes MK. So the simple device of "ceremonial" avoids having to rewrite it it to refer to the traditional county (which is a sore topic in WP:UK geography already).<br> |
|
|
Also, most of the MK categories are nested in the Bucks categories, so there is no need to list both in MK articles. --] (]) 20:00, 12 January 2009 (UTC) |
