#1774: Fedora Wiki's stylesheet is screwey on small screen high DPI devices

= phenomenon =
Multiple issues here: Tables go beyond the page but the page isn't told
about being wider than the screen, so horizontal scrolling is not
possible. Embedded pictures and headers aren't formatted properly so text
can flow around it, even in extreme situations. The sidebar takes up too
much space at high DPIs leaving only half the page for the body.
In the above order:

Resizing the text and page zoom fixes some problems, but my opinion is
that this is non obvious to many people.

= reason =
I'm not much of a CSS guy, but i have a few ideas. First of all, the
sidebar is strictly set to a hard size in relation to the rest of the
page. Second of all, horizontal scrolling is (and rightly so) disabled at
all costs. Third of all, something is not set properly when formatting
embedded inline pictures, so that the sidebar can wrap around it, or so
that it's left justified instead of right justified so it runs off the
page rather than running into the sidebar.
= recommendation =
Wikipedia has a pretty decent mobile interface that works very nicely on
the Android devices, and presumably on others as well. It avoids using a
sidebar and TOC by replacing it with expandable fields. I think that at
least having that stylesheet available would be a start. The tricky part
is detecting the actual dimensions *and* DPI of a screen and switching to
the appropriate stylesheet. In this particular example, the screenshots
were taken on an XO using mostly stock settings and Firefox.
Another and more costly and time consuming solution is to redesign the
page more comprehensively so that it is a general purpose page for both
mobile, small screen, and normal devices.

#1883: Enable trac wiki notifications for v7 pages

= phenomenon =
v7 wiki changes don't seem to generate any notification and I haven't
figured out where or what setting would change that.
= background analysis =
It looks like either a setting, configuration or plug-in is required to
enable this feature.
= implementation recommendation =
Can someone let me know where to configure this so I might receive these
notifications and inform others who may want the same?
Thanks in advance.

Fedora's wiki
by Mario González T
Dear webmaster,
Thanks to give this chance to talk with you guys, you've been doing a
great job.
I'm writing you because I was wondering if the fedora's wiki theme is
released in somewhere. We have been dealing with mediawiki and my boss
was delighted when he saw
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Project_Wiki We would like to know
if you could share it with us?
Many thanks,
Kind regards from Chile.

#1227: Hosting footer
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: mmcgrath | Owner: webmaster
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11
Component: Webmaster | Version: Production
Severity: Normal | Keywords:
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
This is something we've talked about many times but it's not quite
implemented yet. I'd like to put footers at the bottom of our pages that
reference a hosting provider. For an example see:
http://us.pycon.org/2009/conference/schedule/event/21/
We can't build it directly into the templates because different places
have different hosting. What I'd like to do is have our templates import
a js script (or something). Then we can deploy a custom js script to each
host that has the relevant information.
If you're interested put a proof of concept together on your fedorapeople
page.

FAS bug
by Trever Fischer
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I was about to send an invite to a friend with the 'invite' link next to
the Ambassador group block on the My Account page, but then I noticed that
it is sending it from my wm161(a)wm161.net account. Shouldn't it be sending
it from my fedoraproject.org email? Looks more professional that way I
think.

Package bug lists
by Christopher Beland
I use lists such as:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/bugs/gdm
to do bug triage, and they are much handier than doing searches in
Bugzilla. Since we have switched to using the Triaged keyword instead
of the ASSIGNED status to indicate triage has been completed for a
particular bug, would it be possible to update this table to show triage
status? It would also be tremendously useful to show if NEEDINFO is
set, because when triaging I skip those bugs.
Thanks!

problem with https://fedoraproject.org/en/verify
by Richard Z
Hi,
sorry to use this contact address, was not sure where else to direct this.
The procedure in this page has one significant stumbling point - the *-CHECKSUM
file is a gzipped file - at least when it is downloaded using wget.
( I have tested it with https://fedoraproject.org/static/checksums/Fedora-12-i386-CHECKSUM )
Obviously it needs to unzipped - which is not quickly obvious for a bunch of reasons,
eg it has no ".gz" suffix and many editors/viewers will unzip it automatically so the
unsuspecting user is left scratching his head why it doesnt work when the file looks
perfectly ok when viewed with "less"
The result are rather cryptic error messages like
# gpg --verify *-CHECKSUM
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: the signature could not be verified.
Please remember that the signature file (.sig or .asc)
should be the first file given on the command line.
Regards
Richard
