Los Caprichos

[edit]

Hi rchard2scout. I appreciate your help with coding. Initially, with a narrow window on Wikipedia and another window on my MS Word translation, I mistakenly thought the graphics positions had been changed to center them all on the screen (which thankfully I now see they have not been). After widening the Wikipedia window I see that they correctly have text wrapping around the smaller graphics.

I have no idea what "lint errors" may be. I copied codes primarily from the Spanish article, making adaptations into English coding as best I could, testing results along the way. I am learning as I proceed.

I am currently reading through the entire translation again, making refinements to the language and deleting the old reference tags as I grow confident they will no longer be required to guide me should I need to refer back to the original Spanish text. When I am done this pass and all looks okay, I will get rid of the "Editing in Progress" notice. This may take me a couple of more days, as I have other obligations.

Thanks again for your help.

Invitation to participate in a research

[edit]

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
