Comment about sc not working in Footer
[edit]Hi, I'm sorry that we missed welcoming you earlier in the piece. I had seen your contributions but missed the fact that your talk page was still red. With respect to your comment about {{sc}} not working in the Footer, it does work there, but you won't see it for upper case letters or numerals. I wonder if what you really wanted was {{smaller}}. However, for the actual application you are using it for, it doesn't matter because we don't reproduce binder's marks. This is because we are reproducing the text rather than the printed work itself.

- Ah! Understood and corrected on both counts. Thank you. -- Econterms (talk) 07:35, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
Proofreading
[edit]Hi. I would like to encourage you to mark your page cleanups in PSM as proofread, which essentially are. — Ineuw talk 09:04, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

Index:Roster of Registered U.S. Patent Attorneys 1903 (revised).pdf
[edit]ok see Index:Roster of Registered U.S. Patent Attorneys 1903 (revised).pdf. the link from commons appears broken. (but the link from wikisource to commons works) there is a lot of tabular list text. i would suggest copy pasting the OCR text layer into https://tools.wmflabs.org/magnustools/tab2wiki.php which will insert table code. cheers -- Slowking4 ‽ SvG's revenge 16:09, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

Cheat fix for nodes
[edit]Hi. I did a bit of a cheat fix for the nodes issue—added a column and removed the padding; essentially halving the nodes. So on my monitor it looks okay, though you may wish to eyeball it on yours and a mobile screen to see that it still looks okay. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:31, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you! I see the section I had to split, but didn't want to, is now joined into one again. I don't fully understand, but it looks fine and works better! -- econterms (talk) 05:08, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
