Is it forbidden to upload GIFs? I wanted to upload one for the Animation page (I'm not sure if that's a good idea anyway; it would be used to get a feeling of what approximately Adobe Reader is capable to do/limited to). I get a warning <i>".gif" is not a recommended image file format.</i>, but then nothing happened any further. --Thanks, [[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]]
Mojca recently asked Under the 'News', it should be - On January 2, 2021 (in the changelog& not 2020) for comments on the reorganization , availability of the [[Main Page]]. It looks quite good to me, overall. The "how A not so short introduction to edit a Wiki pageConTeXt" should probably link to the existing v1.6 by Joaquín Ataz-López --[[HelpUser:EditingRamkumarkb|Ramkumar]] page, or perhaps directly to MediaWiki's Help:Editing page.
I do think a couple of the section headings should be changed. "Tips:fixed, Tricks, and Hacks" is becoming a storehouse of actual documentation as well as just small "tricks", and the name should reflect thatthanks [[User:Taco|Taco]] ([[User talk:Taco|talk]]) 08: something like "ConTeXt Documentation and How-To", maybe. "Help & Guidelines" should be "Wiki Help & Guidelines"59, so as to distinguish it from "ConTeXt help".13 January 2021 (CET)
It may also be useful to put "short explanations" next to the links, much as I've been doing in the [[From LaTeX to = General ConTeXt]] page.Questions =
: Brooks, you wrote too much today ;) ! You cannot expect people to read all your comments!!! (I didn't even notice your posting here until I wanted to add something).<br>Yes, "How to edit a Wiki page" should certainly be merged with [[Help:Editing]]. I forgot that this page ever existed as it somehow disappeared from my view. [[Help:Contents]] should ugently be changed as well. (Feel free to do it.)= History =
: Despite the generally accepted decision to lock the first page, I hope that I'm not violating the rules too much if I unlock it for two days (sorry, Patrick), so that you can improve it by yourself if you want. If anyone spams the first page in the meantime, I take the responsibility to remove the spam from it (as soon as I come online).:--[[User:Mojca Miklavec|Mojca]] 19:37, 4 Sep 2005 == just a typo (UTC):: No problem at all, go ahead and feel free to unlock it. BTW: which I really like the look of the new page, but I still need some time to make real comments --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] 10:55, 5 Sep 2005 (UTCcannot fix myself)==
:: Thanks! I think I'll make a copy russian' instead of the [[Main Page]], and put it in [[Main Page Sandbox]], so I can muck about with some organizational ideas without affecting the "live" version until they're finished. I was going to say that we could delete [[Main Page Sandbox]] after we're done, but it might be useful to leave it up for future things like this. --[[User:Brooks|Brooks]] 23:09, 4 Sep 2005 (UTC) :: Another idea for handling the main page, as far as editing goes -- see [http://sandbox.contextgarden.net/Brooks's_Sandbox_Two|This Page on the Sandbox]. There's no actual content on the page; itRussian's all in a pair of templates. That page could then be locked, but people could still edit the templates and change the content, so long as they knew which templates to edit. I don't know how smart the spammers are, but it ought to at least block the lazy and/or automatic ones. --[[User:BrooksOusia|BrooksPablo Rodríguez]] 00:08, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC) ::: This seems hidden enough for me (until I knew what Templates are about and where they are stored, I had to search really long until I was able to see the content) --[[Usertalk:Mojca MiklavecOusia|Mojcatalk]] 00:21, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC) :::17: Let's try it. Good Idea. If it turns out wrong, we can still decide later. --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|pg]] 10:55, 5 Sep 2005 (UTC) The live ConTeXt page is broken. Maybe the daemon just needs restarting? -- Tim 09.3050, 26 Jan 2006 29 June 2022 (UTCCEST): No, I was just updating it. Should be fixed now. thanks for the report --[[User:Patrick Gundlach|Patrick]] Under Getting Started/Installation, it would seem more logical to point to [[ Installation ]] rather than to [[ ConTeXt Minimals ]]. -- Alan 12 Oct 2008 = General ConTeXt Questions =
This is not the place to ask general questions about ConTeXt. If you have a longer question:fixed, the best thing to do with it is create a new page (see thanks [[HelpUser:EditingTaco|Taco]] for how to do that) with a description of the problem, and put the special text <code><nowiki>{{Howto}}</nowiki></code> in it, which will cause it to be listed on the ([[CategoryUser talk:How toTaco|talk]] page. If you have a short question that is appropriate for the [[FAQ]], you can add it there, and leave the answer blank. If you have a question that you wish to discuss, the best place for that is the [http) 08://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context ConTeXt mailing list] or the "Discussion" page associated with a particularly relevant Wiki page40, though you can also use the [[Talk:FAQ|FAQ's "Talk" page]] if there's not an obvious choice.30 June 2022 (CEST)
