Dear User:Guillom, would you mind taking a look at my code and please let me know what am I doing wrong here? :) Why are the "Headlines · Highlights · Single page edition · Unsubscribe" and the "To assist with preparing the newsletter" lines and even this new post now inside the article columns? I would say let's just skip the columns, but we're after a smaller footprint here, so I think we still need them. Once the code is corrected, will this format still work with one of the various talk page messaging methods that you kindly outlined here? And, is this translatable, as per our conversation here? Merci beaucoup, Anna Koval (WMF) (talk) 12:08, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
- Anna: The column issue was because you had an extra set of those:
<div style="-moz-column-count:2; -webkit-column-count:2; column-count:2;">that wasn't closed, so it included the rest of the page. - Regarding your other questions, yes, this is translatable, but also needlessly complicated wikicode :) I'll simplify it a bit. guillom (talk) 15:27, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
