FYI redux

User:Morton devonshire
Thanks for doing the sensible thing there, MONGO. I take in all that you say in your message in his user talk too. Best, as always, --Guinnog 21:08, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Transparent svg and IE
Just wanted to bring to your atention that transparent svgs are not displayed properly in Internet Explorer (6 at least), so there are white corners surrounding the locator dot in {{Infobox protected area}}. Cheers. --Qyd 23:55, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- I noticed that before and it seems to come and go...last time I looked it was fine. The old loc dot was in png format, and was altered to an svg format sometime later. I'm not sure why it has a white box around it sometimes.--MONGO 17:52, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- It's because Internet Explorer 6 has no built-in support for transparent svg. This isn't much of a problem for most articles using {{Infobox protected area}}, as the underlaying maps generally have pale colors; it becomes more evident when the dot is superimposed on darker colors, such as Caribou Mountains Wildland Park or even Isle Royale National Park, Statue of Liberty, Fundy National Park, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, USS Arizona Memorial, etc. I've resorted to transparent gif locator dots when using {{superimpose}} or zindex style, due to this IE limitation (which extends to transparent png as well). It's hard to even notice this inconvinience, as most editors are using browsers better then IE ;) --Qyd 11:34, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey there
Mongo, I just shot you an email. Later. JungleCat talk/contrib 17:23, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks! I owe you one... JungleCat talk/contrib 17:31, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
- Not a problem.--MONGO 17:51, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
September 11 Fatalities
Regarding your question about why the line from fatalities was moved to the attacks section.
The part about the pilot being killed used to be up in the attacks section then I moved it to fatalities. Since the attacks section was referring to pilots and crew being killed as part of the hijacking it did seem to better belong in the attacks section. Also, there is a lot of information regarding the WTC in the fatalities section but was only that one line at the end about the airliners.
Your call, just letting you know why. --PTR 20:01, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Userpage
Could you unprotect my userpage? Since that whole Edsel thing has blown over. Karrmann 00:37, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Done.--MONGO 03:27, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Re: Electronic health record
Mongo, can you please speedy delete Electronic health record since you are an admin. I was annoyed to see you'd removed the speedy notice. We need to move Electronic Health Record there as per an agreed name change. We can't do it until Electronic health record is deleted because that article has an edit history of more than one edit. I've done this many times with other admins -- it is the way it's done. — Donama 07:39, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- What is wrong with the redirect?--MONGO 07:51, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Nevermind, I'll take care of it.--MONGO 07:51, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Another Frogsprog sock

Deborah Frisch
From the "Only on Misplaced Pages" Department: Deborah Frisch herself, using the username Warriordumot (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), started blanking the article about her and using it to attack others. I ask for an admin to check it out on AN/I . Seems rational enough, eh? So what happens? Editor (as in nonadmin) User:JBKramer starts reblanking it for her, accusing me of WP:BLP violations in an extremely patronizing, "I'll pretend I'm an admin" fashion. I try to restore some of the article using better cites, he starts revert warring with me, and admins start giving him high-fives on AN/I? Could you please tell me what is happening to this place? --Aaron 19:14, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Aaron...we have been tightening up all biography (especially those of living persons) in accordance with WP:BLP. I don't take a stand on naything on that article, except that is must be reliably referenced and we must not, at any time, use article space to impunge anyone. I don't say you have done this, and all I ask is that any reference must be either directly quoted or be summarized in a NPOV manner.--MONGO 19:29, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- As I just posted on AN/I, I believe that Aaron was making a good faith attempt to revert vandalism and blanking. If BLP violations were reinserted, it was inadvertant. - Crockspot 19:32, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
