Wikipedia has a limit of 32Kb per page, and the lengthy reviews were taking it wll over that limit, and in testing pages on some browsers, truncation was taking place. Plus, the details I posted are forming the basis of a series of articles I'm working on in much greater depth (and less typos, as not in so much of a rush to get things populated!), so want to keep them off the Wiki for now to prevent clashes. | |||
The bullet points also make easier reading, and I'll porbably move the analyses to the same format. | |||
Finally, it puts the pages more in keeping with the original "Lurkers" approach: informative & reasonably readable. | |||
Revision as of 21:31, 26 January 2005
Sorry about the deletion. Don't know how I could have overlooked the existing article.
I blame the interface.
=)
The interface should give a warning. However, it's not a problem as the original page has been restored.
Best to double-check before making an entry, using the SEARCH function. I'm hoping a revisied home page that includes leading Categories will soon be up and running which will make searches easier.
