What do the colors in the table mean? Why is Alfred Wallin's box white? We need to have some sort of explanation if we are going to assign colors like this to lists. --MatthewUND(talk)22:30, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to assume that Wallin's white box was an error so I will change it for now. Let me know if it was supposed to be white. --MatthewUND(talk)22:32, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What's with the colour anyway? Justices are (at least supposed to be) non-partisan; I don't see any reason for this list to be coloured. -AlexWCovington (talk) 22:43, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand why the table had color either. Thanks for removing it, Alex. By the way, do you think it is appropriate to wikilink every year that appears in a table like we have here? --MatthewUND(talk)22:53, 8 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to not be in vogue as of late on Wikipedia to put up links on every mention of a year, but I've never had a problem with wikilinking anything in sight, as I feel it brings us closer to true hypertext. --AlexWCovington (talk) 02:12, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
