Copy from MediaWiki

Rather than just copy and paste the MediaWiki help files (in the public domain) we should also modify them to be more descriptive to users who have not used the syntax extensively. --TxMasterG Ping 15:10, 16 April 2007 (PDT)

Listing the Templates

There are many more templates than just those noted at the bottom of the page. Should we included All(Special:Prefixindex&from=&namespace=10) of them? Should we include only those that are used? What should we do? --TxMasterG Ping 15:15, 16 April 2007 (PDT)

LSL Template

We really need a way to highlight LSL syntax. Currently scripts are formatted in a small, dark hard to read format. We need a template or format to enable coloring as in the wiki posted at http://rpgstats.com/

Size of the input area

VERRRRRY IMPORTANT !!!

The Input Textarea is way to small. Please modify the CSS so the hight and the width are min double the actual size. --Anylyn Hax 09:07, 25 June 2007 (PDT)

The input size is configurable in "my preferences", under the 'Editing' tab. -- Which Linden 12:22, 13 July 2007 (PDT)

I moved this discussion thread from the main Help page. -- Alissa Sabre 17:28, 14 September 2007 (PDT)

Text flow

PLEASE !!!

Could we have some help information about how to make text flow around pictures? I have looked everywhere but cannot find this. In my wiki for example I have a tall narrow vertical picture and I need to put the accompanying text beside it not below it !

[[Image:Cat speaking tool step 2 error 1.png|left|lolcatz error message]] Use the left or right parameters for image tags.

These parameters can float images to the left or to the

lolcatz error message

, giving you the flexibility in layout you desire.
