Notice of noticeboard discussion
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. - The Bushranger One ping only 08:55, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Hi SGG, that AN drama board can get a bit heavy. Some editors are having difficulty with the way your userpage appears due to your custom title.  Would you mind adjusting it very slightly (more like the one on your user talk page).  You could use this code:
 * }}.
 * That is 4 "big"'s instead of 7, as it is interfering with the pagelayout on at least some browsers. Thank you for your consideration. —  xaosflux  Talk 14:02, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
 * FYI, the WP:AN thread has been shut down - you are welcome to review what was said but are not expected to reply there. — xaosflux  Talk 14:44, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

Usage of display title
Hi Some Gadget Geek. As you might have noticed in the section above, there have been some complaints about the usage of DISPLAYTITLE on this talk page. Several people have indicated that it was disruptive to their usage of the user interface of Wikipedia icw their browser or a specific skin. Per WP:SMI, you cannot make changes to interface parts of your userpage, if these are disruptive for other other users. So while the technical means might be out there and while you have more freedom on your user page to play around than in other areas of the encyclopaedia and even while other users might be doing something similar, I still think that these complaints warrant removing this styling from this page. I hope you understand. —Th e DJ (talk • contribs) 15:57, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I agree completely with the discussion and the decision you made. Besides, there's the same styling in the banner at the top. It doesn't have to be done to the title. Simple pictures are best, after all. « « «  SOME GADGET GEEK  » » » (talk) 16:09, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
