smoke test 703

What library bundle did you try to download and install? How did you confirm it didn't appear in your library sidebar from the browser's start page?

--Sj talk 14:25, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

I downloaded the NET Bible (the one the smoke test page suggests downloading). It neither appeared in /home/olpc/Library as a directory, nor did it show up in the sidebar, which I checked by closing all Browse sessions and re-opening Browse. I also tried closing Browse, 'resuming' the .xol file through the Journal, and then checking /home/olpc/Library and the sidebar on the browser's start page, but it still didn't work then. --Charlie 15:01, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

Test cases?

Dude, Aqiring is spelled with C. "acquiring" This is the problem with filling in a form over and over. Seth 09:31, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

I could have sworn I spelled that right when I looked at it... Sometimes my iBook doesn't catch every keystroke. Will redirect it if you haven't already. Charlie 14:28, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Unneeded alt text for (some) semantic annotation text

Hello there, I notice in Property:Component and other pages you did

 This is a property of type [[Has type::URL|URL]].

but you need only write

 This is a property of type [[Has type::URL]].

The Semantic MediaWiki extension parses the property annotation before the :: (Has type in this case) but hides it and the colons from display. Cheers. -- Skierpage 19:55, 25 July 2008 (UTC) (I assist SMW extension development, check out Special:Version ;-) )
