Oz, Err... Misteak was deliberate and not one, however spelled. The context explains why. Should I change it back? ww 19:09, 2 Apr 2004 (UTC)

"Big-endian" Fibonacci coding?
Again, can you actually provide some reference that the system you describe as "big-endian" Fibonacci coding has actually seen use? Big-endian and little-endian byte-orderings came about because they were both equally good ways to handle the same situation. "Big-endian" Fibonacci coding seems markedly inferior to little-endian Fibonacci coding, since little-endian can handle the value 1 and big-endian cannot (how do you remove the leading "10" from "1"?) -- Antaeus Feldspar 00:00, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

nbsp
Hello. Your edit of recurring decimal prompts this comment.

"x + y = 7" sits on one line, but if I hadn't set it very close to the beginning of this sentence, there's the possibility of some reader's seeing it near the right edge of the browser window, and then "x" could appear on one line and "+ y = 7" on the next. The nbsp character prevents that. Do you object to that? Michael Hardy 23:52, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:55, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Proposed deletion of File:ClearType Comparison 1 1 1.png


The file File:ClearType Comparison 1 1 1.png has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "unused, low-res, no obvious use"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
