| :::Stories exist in ''The Signpost'' because someone volunteers to write them. If you want a story covered of any kind then recruit a writer. It sometimes helps to start draft content and collect facts even if you feel that you will not be author. There is no staff labor here and there is hardly volunteer labor. Simply, if you do not see yourself represented, then you have to find a way to represent yourself if it is to happen at all. I do not have any power to recruit journalists except that if they submit something publishable, then we can do the editorial processing. Best wishes and I regret that I do not have more to give. ]] 19:37, 4 June 2024 (UTC) | |||

| I am pretty sure I have cracked the code on this one: the images are all displayed using <code>px</code> values, but a bunch of the other stuff on the page is defined with <code>em</code> values. There ''is'' a way to force images to be scaled with respect to <code>em</code>, which I did at {{tl|stupid t-shirt}} (see its stylesheet), but this seems like a giant pain (all of the offset params would need to be re-hardcoded, which could be done by bot but it would still be a gigantic pita). It should be pretty easy to fix this nonetheless -- just change the values for the styling on the snippet template to work with px instead of em. I think this will make the crops on the front page look good on mobile and desktop (and regardless of font size/dpi). <b style="font-family: monospace; color:#E35BD8">]×]]</b> 06:16, 18 June 2024 (UTC) | |||

Vandalism Removal
I've just found out that an IP removed me and another user from the list last month. Could we do something to prevent that? Thanks Nobody (talk) 14:56, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Reply button is not working
While readinga signpost i tried to reply to a comment showing below the page but the button gave me error said " Could not find the comment you're replying to on the page" R1F4T (talk) 09:39, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- @R1F4T: - try it now. If you are on the article page, click on the talk tab and then the "edit" or "+" links on the top line. This should work automatically every time, but I think sometimes for the first comment a bit of code gets accidentally removed in the prepublication process (and then it should be just like creating any other talk page). Maybe if the comment was removed while you were typing, you'd get messed up. Maybe if you are commenting on an old article, something different might be happening. Smallbones(smalltalk)
