Move?

[edit]

Re the discussion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Numismatics/Style, should this be moved to Bosnia and Herzegovina konvertibilna marka? I think so. If no one's to the contrary, I'll move it.

The "Orthography" section is incorrect

[edit]

Like in many Slavic languages in Serbo-Croat the grammatical case changes when counting. After 2,3, and 4 the noun stands in nominative plural, from 5 on it is in genitive plural. E.g. "Marka" is nominative singular, "Marke" is nominative plural, "Maraka" is genitive plural. 85.3.15.242 (talk) 12:48, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

'Llantrisant (London, UK)'

[edit]

The Royal Mint was once based in London, but has since been decentralised to the town of Llantrisant in Wales (225 km away), so 'Llantrisant (London, UK)' is complete nonsense. Some of the use of English in this article is in any case unidiomatic. In short, an English-speaking editor should have a very good look at the whole thing.188.230.248.85 (talk) 17:24, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will correct that mistake now (CBBH still uses London as a location for Royal Mint, so I’ve just added it without checking where "a hilltop settlement" actually is). Unidiomatic use is present indeed because I’m not a native speaker of English but BSC, so I’ve just corrected some mistakes about plurals and names, and added new info. --Obsuser (talk) 13:24, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I’ve clarified some sentences a bit, at least I hope so... --Obsuser (talk) 13:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Colours

[edit]

Hello
You added the 'over-coloured' template to this page a while ago; what do you see as the problem, here? Moonraker12 (talk) 20:57, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Moonraker12: Normally, with a black background (in a table), text should go default in white. However, because there are links, it turned blue and contrast do not meet the standards as a result. I do not know if the black background (on banknote tab) is intentional or not, but that is where the problem lies. 1233 ( T / C 23:35, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OK...Are there standards written down somewhere? Guidelines on using colours? (I don’t know) AFAIK we can’t change the colour the links display in, but the background colour should be easy to adjust; which colour would be most suitable? Or the links could be moved; I don’t know that it’s essential they be in that position. I had thought the problem was with the orange contrasting with the grey, though I have no idea why those bits use orange at all; for my money they could go completely... Moonraker12 (talk) 21:09, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There's WCAG 2.0 (now recommended to do WCAG 2.2), a global standard on colour/visual compatibility. I think the best is just to remove the colour, considering the use of the colour is near zero - unless it conveys some message. The problem is blue on black. 1233 ( T / C 04:39, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the link (though I have to say it's a bit complex for a bear of very small brain); But I would agree the colour serves little purpose, and taking it out would match the banknote tables further down. Do you want to do it or shall I? Moonraker12 (talk) 19:59, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think that it's fine for you to do that - it is not that controversal, and the reason why I leave that template is mainly due to my (also small brain) inability to decide what can be best done to resolve that issue - so I identified an issue but not resolving that. 1233 ( T / C 05:54, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I trust everyone is OK with that. Moonraker12 (talk) 17:30, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
