Recent changes
- You can now make charts and maps on your wiki with the new "graph" tool. If you have an old browser, you will see images instead. It uses a tool called Vega; you can learn how to use it and write help pages for your wiki. You can use the Vega edit tool to make charts and copy the code to your wiki. Charts and maps use complex code and you should put them into templates. In the future, you will be able to create charts with VisualEditor. [7] [8] [9]

15-vasteSpatie-% bewerken
Als ik in de hoofdtekst zoek op het teken [%], dan wordt de tekst [15 & nbsp; %] (zonder spaties) niet in de selectie meegenomen. Bijvoorbeeld in een oude versie van het lemma Ebola. Gaarne uw reactie. – Maiella (overleg) 14 mei 2015 00:40 (CEST)
- Wat bedoel je met "zoeken in de hoofdtekst"? Gaat dit om een browserfunctie? Zo ja, welke browser? --BDijkstra (overleg) 14 mei 2015 13:44 (CEST)
- Ik bedoel een lemma lezen of bewerken, dan <ctrl><F>, dan <%> invullen gevolgd door ENTER. Maar ik kan het nu niet reproduceren, dus ik begrijp er niks van. – Maiella (overleg) 14 mei 2015 14:10 (CEST)

rode tekst Muziekcafé bewerken
Kan iemand de rode tekst [Muziekcafé] in het Muziekcafé in de rubriek [U bevindt zich hier:] vervangen in zwarte tekst? Dit is min of meer conventie en een rode link is in principe een indicatie dat de betreffende link ontbreekt. Dit café is m.i. niet de meest geschikte locatie voor het illustreren van een pragmatische paradox. Bij voorbaat dank. – Maiella (overleg) 20 mei 2015 01:49 (CEST)
Opgelost - Was een kwestie van parameter te verwijderen. Romaine (overleg) 20 mei 2015 02:10 (CEST)
