Talk:Mrs. Caudle's curtain lectures
Add topicLatest comment: 13 years ago by Billinghurst
 | Mrs. Caudle's curtain lectures was the featured text for March 2011 (discussion). It was considered among the most complete works available on Wikisource. |
For a "Featured text", I spent thirty seconds trying to figure out how to actually READ the damned thing...might be better if we made it a bit more user-friendly - I'm guessing there's a huge difference between pageviews of the cover and the first page this month...

- Would you please elaborate. What specifically makes this work hard to read and to navigate. Have you suggestions for improvement? Billinghurst (talk) 22:42, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
- I scroll down and it ends at the coverpage, I look at the contents...nothing to click on, I look for a link for Chapter I, or Page 1, or...something...there is nothing. The only links I see are to the illustrator's articles or the List of Illustrations...neither screams "the book starts here". StateOfAvon (talk) 23:01, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
- Took a peek and I'm seeing almost the same thing here too. The links that should be near the bottom in the TOC are moved as a group to almost absolute top-left, covering (white background) a slice of both the familar green header as well as the blue notes field under it. FWIW... of all the "wacky rendering" I typically see around here - this is the first time I've seen something like this happen. — George Orwell III (talk) 23:29, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
- I couldn't replicate in FF or Chrome, though could get it in IE. I think that it has come about from that dratted dotted template that someone kindly added, and I have reverted to one of my earlier versions. See how it is now. Billinghurst (talk) 00:18, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
- Much better for us trogs with IE, thanks. StateOfAvon (talk) 00:38, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks very much for the alert, and we should cater for all disabilities. ;-) Billinghurst (talk) 01:03, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
