Wow, can't you disable that in your browser. I would tolerate that for about a half-second! Is Chromium the same thing as Chrome? It must be different. But are they related?
http://www.chromium.org/ Download ready-to-use installers here: http://chromium.woolyss.com/ Chromium is often used under GNU/Linux distributions, as it is open source, and available in official package repositories (whereas Chrome isn't). Please avoid using Google Chrome from now. Chrome-based browsers are sometimes useful as Firefox is often slower. Some browser-based apps are mainly targeted to Chrome. But fortunately there is an open source and user-respectful alternative (really? https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=786909).
Oh! Doesn't django much have a find/replace? I don't see it. But if there is, you could search for  , and search again for space , and space, and replace with the correct thing.
Here is my technique: searching once, then using F3 and typing or pasting the replacement. I'm used to web edition. Actually, what's the most boring is the loading of the browser: loading the page, loading the page in edit mode, opening the editor (and opening links — the horrible thing), saving the editor's content, publishing the page.
Oh!! You could take the html (souce) out to a text editor, and do it there. Then paste back in. When I first started working with django, that was my workflow. Because in the Very beginning, the source wasn't even formatted. The html just wrapped and wrapped. So I pasted into a text editor to get some minimum formatting.
I do that sometimes for long and no-risk replacements, or for replacements with regular expressions.
I still don't think it formats. But at least it doesn't wrap anymore. But if you do that, be sure to back up the page first. Just in case :-) They're all outdated now, but for a while, I had 8 or 10 pages backed up locally. I don't have the whole website, like Maren does (because I don't have any need or skills for it). But I had a bunch of pages.
I think a history is kept… Just look at the History menu when you're in edit mode. What do you mean by ‘it wrapped’? That spaces were not left in source code?
Why does the dashes bother you? Because people use them too much? In personal writing, I use them a lot. But since it's not official, I guess it doesn't matter. I think it's ok to use once in a while on the website. I wouldn't use more than twice on the same page. But only if I couldn't think of any other way. Mostly I would only use once or not at all.
I love dashes and I use them very often. The problem is the use of narrow dashes; typographic rules say to use longer dashes as the relation between the words around the dash decreases.
Examples: * Hyphen: The hackfest is co-located with LGM. Non-Coding. * En-dash: 2015–2016. Isaac Newton (1643–1727). Working 5–10 minutes. * Em-dash: Inkscape Board — working budget.
I'll think you'll easily find more examples by yourself.
Yeah, in forums, people almost always call me "man" or refer to with "he". Even on the mailing list once or twice. I used to have a Celtic knot or endless knot for my forum avatar. But I changed it to a flower, to try and appear more feminine. It didn't help at all! Maybe a sunflower is too masculine? Maybe I need a more delicate flower? What's a delicate flower? Rose? Poppies are pretty delicate....maybe dahlia? Dahlia would be a good username! But I'm rambling....
Funny fact… Thus this problem is common. On MMORPGs for example, I don't feel it so easy to ask ‘what is your gender?’ to every person I talk to. I think the best idea is to use the language details. In French, most qualitative adjectives change according to the gender of the qualified — usually by taking an E. Thus this technique is very effective and may contribute to the spelling skills of future generations.
I'm not sure if that asterisk in front of her name means leader, or if it's just different username or account. Maybe it is. All the other teams either have only 1 person with asterisk, or none. I'd say that's a good guess :-)
She said this means ‘Admin’.
Related fact: I'm seeing this double-space habit on Meta-Wiki: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Grants:IdeaLab/Inspire&acti... (Look at the <!-- INTRO --> part.) Quite common too.
Our topics are going quite far from the Inkscape project, especially far from the initial subject, the ‘Hackfest’. Martin even wonders if he must add a feature from what we're saying. As it is becoming personal and private, I think that if you reply again, you should send your e-mail to me only, to avoid spamming all our mates.
