I'd like the Latest Releases box to be much simpler, and to be consistent from entry to entry. Currently: |
|||
Some suggested changes: |
|||
* the XO-1 and XO-1.5 tags link to two very different things, certainly not to model specific pages, |
|||
* the title links to another quite different thing, |
|||
* firmware is placed between stable and development operating system releases, |
|||
* there are links to the download directories before the links to the release notes or installation guide. |
|||
I think the box should guide users to a page that describes the release, and that page would include download pointers. I'd go ahead and edit, but [[User:Sj]] and [[User:Holt]] are obviously editing as well, so I'm offering to discuss it first. --[[User:Quozl|Quozl]] 06:32, 29 July 2010 (UTC) |

I'd like the Latest Releases box to be much simpler, and to be consistent from entry to entry. Currently:
- the XO-1 and XO-1.5 tags link to two very different things, certainly not to model specific pages,
- the title links to another quite different thing,
- firmware is placed between stable and development operating system releases,
- there are links to the download directories before the links to the release notes or installation guide.
I think the box should guide users to a page that describes the release, and that page would include download pointers. I'd go ahead and edit, but User:Sj and User:Holt are obviously editing as well, so I'm offering to discuss it first. --Quozl 06:32, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
Styling
The new colors seem too harsh. The date colum wraps on IE and Chrome.
