serial commas at MOS

Nice wording, I think. Tony (talk) 11:48, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And at hyphens. User:Noetica and I co-wrote that and the sections on dashes last year. You've improved it.
What to do about the section on ellipsis? Tony (talk) 16:35, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I did my best with the section on ellipsis (this edit). What do you think are the outstanding issues?--Kotniski (talk) 16:42, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Helpbox stackable

Howdy. I was wondering if it would be possible to merge {{helpbox stackable}} into {{helpbox}} as a variable, instead of having two separate templates. Both to avoid unnecessary forking, and because it removes the option of having the boxes float next to one another (something that is occasionally desirable when a page has a long thin TableofContents, or on my userpage (User:Quiddity#navboxen) ;) Thanks. -- Quiddity (talk) 21:27, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, no objection from me, although I won't do it myself, because (a) {{helpbox}} is fully protected and I'm not an admin; (b) I don't actually understand why the fix I made in helpbox stackable works (so someone more competent should probably carry out the merge).--Kotniski (talk) 22:04, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
