Tip of the day...

Making the editbox more visually pleasing

Do you know the GFDL inside-out, and have thousands of edits to your credit? Are all those copyright disclaimer warnings starting to bug you? Add this to your monobook.css (or whatever skin you are using):

/* Remove to-me-useless notes in all edit boxes. leaves only the command buttons and special chars. */
#editpage-copywarn { display: none; }
#editpage-copywarn1 { display: none; }
#editpage-copywarn2 { display: none; }
#editpage-copywarn3 { display: none; }
