:Kryten: "One of the first things Wikia mentioned about the Oasis transition was that infoboxes would no longer fit." - Infoboxes still fit, I'm not sure where that quote came from. They don't have as much room compared to the view on larger monitors before Oasis, and I personally like the idea a feature that allows them to be in the right sidebar, but they are certainly still a workable and key element of many pages. (Random trivia: I was instrumental in getting them named "infoboxes" originally, in the early days of Wikipedia. When they were first used they were called "taxoboxes" and just used for biology articles, but that name didn't work as we started using them more widely) | :Kryten: "One of the first things Wikia mentioned about the Oasis transition was that infoboxes would no longer fit." - Infoboxes still fit, I'm not sure where that quote came from.

:On being patronizing: I disagree I am being so, your perception is different. All I can do right now is to keep trying to change that perception. If another IRC chat will help us with that, I'd be happy to do that. | :On being patronizing: I disagree I am being so, your perception is different.

:LapisScarab: I may not be able to give you what you want, that's not the same as ignoring you. A lot of changes have been made in response to feedback, and that will continue as the skin develops over time and we gather more data on actual use. I acknowledge that you are forking, and I'm not trying to stop that -- just to prevent harm to this wiki as you do so. It comes down to what I said elsewhere: you have the right to fork, you do not have the right to control the future of a wiki you have left. I know I've failed to persuade you to stay, so now I'm here to work with you and to try and make the fork as smooth as possible. -- [[ | :LapisScarab: I may not be able to give you what you want, that's not the same as ignoring you.
