-== Coffee ==
-Before undoing consensus edits, read through [[Talk:Coffee/Archive 4#Coffee origin]], [[Talk:Coffee/Archive 5#Recent Edits]] and [[Talk:Coffee/Archive 5#Recent edits]]. Per [[WP:BRD]]: discuss on the appropriate [[Talk:Coffee|talk page]] rather than edit war.--[[User:Loriendrew|<font color="#005000">&#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;</font>]] [[User talk:Loriendrew|<font color="#000080">&#9743;''(ring-ring)''</font>]] 18:28, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
-== Image size and [[WP:IDHT]] ==
-The policy/guideline/MOS does not say what you claim it says. Please reread it. Also read [[WP:BRD]] and [[WP:3RR]] and take it to the talk-page. I see no reason whatsoever to fix image sizes. [[User:Kleuske|Kleuske]] ([[User talk:Kleuske|talk]]) 15:29, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
-::Hi [[User:Kleuske|Kleuske]], the policies state "As a general rule, images should not be set to a larger fixed width than 220px (the initial base width)" and "Except with very good reason, do not use px (e.g. thumb|300px), which forces a fixed image width", may I have examples of such reasons? Because as far as I know, lead images such as ''La civilització del califat de Còrdova en temps d'Abd-al-Rahman III.jpg'' and ''Granada's sunset.jpg'' are an "exception to this general rule".

-:::You think so, three other editors thought otherwise. Different screens have different resolutions. By fixing image width, you are making it less impossible for browsers to adapt to different screen-sizes. [[User:Kleuske|Kleuske]] ([[User talk:Kleuske|talk]]) 11:15, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

-The policy states "Except with very good reason, do not use px (e.g. thumb|300px), which forces a fixed image width", may I have examples of such reasons? [[User:Tarook97|Tarook97]] ([[User talk:Tarook97#top|talk]]) 11:21, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
-Setting particular sizes creates formatting problems on some screens and for some user bases (see [[MOS:IMGSIZE]]). Where an article has many images and not enough text, large images can overwhelm or squeeze surrounding text. Generally whether a larger or smaller size is warranted is decided locally by consensus. So you would need to convince others there is a "very good reason" for larger images. The Al-Andalus article has a glut of images and not enough text. Many sections have more than one image even though they are just a few paragraphs, giving it a cluttered look even with default sizes. The article needs further development of the content at this point, not more or larger images. [[User:Laszlo Panaflex|Laszlo Panaflex]] ([[User talk:Laszlo Panaflex|talk]]) 13:18, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
-== World Heritage Site infobox at Alhambra ==
-Hello. Please can you let me know why you [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alhambra&diff=794366877&oldid=794268832 reverted my edit to Alhabra] that migrated the infobox to Wikidata? Was there a problem with how the new infobox was being displayed? Thanks. [[User:Mike Peel|Mike Peel]] ([[User talk:Mike Peel|talk]]) 19:17, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
