Hi -sche
[edit]How can I find you on Wiktionary? Got one or two I'd need you assist me with. Stanleytux (talk) 11:26, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
- I have the same username on the English and German Wiktionaries as I have on Wikipedia: wikt:User talk:-sche. :) I'll help you if I can, assuming you mean you need help with some entries. If you mean you need help with some Wiktionaries (e.g., if you're active on a small Wiktionary that doesn't have local sysops, and you need some pages to be deleted), you should contact a global sysop. -sche (talk) 15:49, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks -sche, I will be in contact with you from over there at Wikt.Stanleytux (talk) 16:04, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Comment on version of "Attacks on Journalists"
[edit]Hi. I don't mean to rush you or anything. But you said a few days ago that you will give me some comments on the expansion of the first paragraph of the "Attacks on Journalists" part.

[edit]Spacing. Cuts down on one row in the infobox if the reference is a bit smaller. Nothing else. EkoGraf (talk) 03:52, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
- @EkoGraf: Aha, thanks for the answer. I see someone has removed the <small> tags, and I think that was correct, because whether or not they reduce the number of lines seems to be quite browser-dependent. On my computer, for example, the ITIC info takes up three lines regardless of whether or not the footnote is small:
ITIC: 2,000 killed (54% civilians, 46% militants)[18]
