Question: Principal Authors
How is the list of principal authors computed? It looks as if any contributor is listed.
- Currently there is no consensus on "who are the principal authors" in the community. Therefore all contributors are mentioned. --he!ko 19:19, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Proposal: Add a table of contents
Did you consider to add a table of contents at the first page of the PDF? I think this might improve usability of larger PDFs. --he!ko 15:57, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Question: Differences between printed books and downloadable PDFs
I created a book and downloaded the PDF. When I wanted to order a printed book with pediapress and looked at the preview I noticed various differences!?
- The layout of printed books differs, as a technology more suitable for printed books is used to generate the PDFs. Printed books feature a Table of Contents, an Index, have a different size (A5 or 8.5×5.5in) and images and tables are layouted differently. The downloadable PDF looks ok when printed (A4) at home and can be generated within a reasonable amount of time. The PDF of printed books is optimized for print and its generation takes way too long to be a viable alternative for Wikipedia. --he!ko 19:56, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug: <poem/>-tag not supported
It looks like the <poem/>-tag is not supported (example). He!ko 16:08, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug: License in the PDF looks strange
Any PDF created from an article on the French Wikipedia has two weird bits :
- Just before the license, a grey frame saying "Raccourcis [1]ées/Licence&hidetrans=1&hidelinks=1&hideimages=1 +"
- Juste after, the text "[1] http:/ / fr. wikipedia. org/ w/ index. php?title=Special:Pages_li" under the heading "Liens externes".
See for example the page http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Korrigan/bug1, whose PDF is here. (reported by fr:Utilisateur:Korrigan, moved here).--he!ko 19:09, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
I should maybe add that the name of the license (GFDL) does not appear on the French Wikipedia, and maybe it is linked to this problem? le Korrigan →bla 08:26, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug: PNG logo has a black background
On the article fr:Star Wing (PDF), on page 10, the logo is a PNG with a transparent background but is rendered with a black background. I haven't seen other images doing this. le Korrigan →bla 08:15, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug: Weird indent with bullet points
On the article fr:Star Wing (PDF), page 15, the section "Médias externes" is rendered with a weird indent, possibly caused by the templates. Note that if you know which template or which aspect causes this and it is a fr.wikipedia-specific issue I can maybe address it but so far I don't know. Thanks! le Korrigan →bla 08:19, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug: Infoboxes take up all width
On most French Wikipedia articles with an infobox (such as fr:Star Wing PDF, page 1), the infobox takes up all the width. And the title of the infobox is on the left and not centered. I do not know whether this is something to be solved by you or on fr.wikipedia, any advice would be welcomed :-) le Korrigan →bla 08:22, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
Proposal: localise "Contributors" and "anonymous edits"
I can't seem to be able to localise the texts "Contributors" and "anonymous edits" on fr.wikipedia. We should be able to do so. Thanks. le Korrigan →bla 08:25, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
