Wiki Life - Clearing the white space in an article

  • Artikkeli

Hello Everyone.

Today we will be talking about white space in articles and the edits that have been taking place over the last few weeks.

In many articles posted and this is from different browsers, there are these blank sections either after a picture, a word or at the end of the post. Once the article is published all these gaps (known as white space) show.

The articles that have been edited have raised some concern because people think there hard work is being undone.

Please note that it is not. Your article is getting a valet! No changes are being made to it other than all the white space being removed. 

As many many more articles will be created each day, so they will be cleaned up which again is not to mess up your hard work and the hours you have spent on the article but to make it "spotless".

I hope that this answers many concerns.

    The Wiki needs us all to help keep it tidy. I'm not opposed to such work, quite the opposite. If we all do a little tweaking as we pass through it's hallowed halls then all the better. JUST SAY NO TO WHITESPACE! ;D

    Also, it's important to note that the current Wiki platform doesn't show white space improvements, and so it comes across looking like no change is made (or perhaps a bad change is made, like spelling being undone or grammar being incorrectly changed). We'll make sure we clarify the White Space changes in the Edit's comments.

    This is a limit of the current platform.

    Thanks DareDevil!

    Just I think we can not keep changing all the tags just to get recognition on the Articles of the other members.
    If thinking of a community have to be corrected as your articles Tags / language errors. The same Tags can not be changed admit they are in post.
    thank you
