Fixed Bugs
Here are a few problems I noticed with this skin.
- I'm logged in. I view an article. The top row has the links:
- Article, Discussion, Edit, History, Move, Watch
- When I click "Edit", the "Watch" link disappears.
-
- This is the same behaviour as in the default skin, there was a comment in the source about the importance of the link disappearing. Don't know if that's out of date.
-
-
- I see. I found it in the source code, it says: if user edits article, then loads "watch this article" in background and then saves article with "Watch this article" checkbox disabled, the article is transparently unwatched. Therefore we do not show the "Watch this page" link in edit mode. Thinking about it now, it's really OK because if I'm in the edit window and I want to watch/unwatch the article, I can just use the checkbox.
-
- Check out Moritz. If the article ends with an image thumbnail, the big white box should extend all the way down to encompass it. (Should be easy to do with a <br clear="all">.)
- Done.
- When I click "Move", all the links disappear. (This is understandable, since "move" is a Special page, but if something can be done, that would be cool.)
-
- That would need to be a move-only hack. Possible to do, the check for that condition is already in the code.
-
-
- Well, to be honest, I'd much prefer if Special:Movepage was removed and changed to ?title=Pagename&action=move. That would make it consistent with "delete" and "history", and it would remove the need for such a hack.

Preferences bug
There appears to be a bug in the preferences. When I change skin, it outputs "skinmonobook" (etc.) before printing the headers, thus resulting in:
- Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at
/usr/local/lib/wikipedia/SpecialPreferences.php:175) in /usr/local/lib/wikipedia/OutputPage.php on line 198
- Yep, noticed that too. There was a checkin yesterday that caused this. -- Gwicke 12:24, 8 Apr 2004 (CEST)
- Fixed. Some debugging statements in cvs.
Moved 16:26, 14 May 2004 (CEST):
- A new user's welcome page could link to Special:Preferences in
the don't forget to change your preferences sentence.
- That's a mediawiki message, can be changed of course.
- I normally use a smaller font - the "smaller" setting with IE, about 12pt with Firefox. With firefox, the font of a page's
edit box is way too small. (With IE it is okay). Maybe a solution to this could be, that you provide an alternate stylesheet
(<link rel="alternate stylesheet>) which sets the text size of the edit box to a fixed size.
- Try a different font size for 'monospace' in the 'unicode' charset.
- I tried to use the MathML features with Binomischer Lehrsatz; they do not work. Well, you explicitly said that this were experimental.

Missing links on User pages
Unless I'm blind, there doesn't appear to be a "User Contributions" or "Email this user" link on someone's User page, e.g. User:Eloquence. — Timwi 00:41, 12 Apr 2004 (CEST)
Minimum size on sidebar?
If the font size is relatively small, the sidebar can be less wide than the site logo, causing the logo to overlap the text area. I find this happens to me in Konqueror 3.2.1 (X display is set at 75dpi, yuck) but can replicate it in Mozilla and elsewhere by manually reducing the font size. A minimum pixel width on the sidebar might be a good idea.
- Done. The image never covers the content now, it's cropped if the font size is very small. -- Gwicke 03:25, 28 Apr 2004 (CEST)
Menubar on the top is to close to the top of the page
In my Firefox-Browser the Menubar is to close to the Tabs, so it happens that i click on a tab instead of for example my watchlist. --Daniel Beyer 15:03, 15 Apr 2004 (CEST)
- Increased it by 0.1em. -- Gwicke 18:24, 15 Apr 2004 (CEST)
It is so beautiful
Is this skin download-able? I like to use it in my wikipage. I test it in firefox & IE 6, both browsers work very well with this skin. But when I edit this docuement, the right border will our of the screen sometimes.
- See meta:MediaWiki from CVS. MonoBook is in CVS HEAD. -- Gwicke 03:29, 28 Apr 2004 (CEST)
