Thanks for the encouragement Dale!

I noticed that you added the Icon template (among others) --- thanks for that too!

Sam888 has resolved the problem with MediaWiki refusing to serve context too heavily laden with graphics with the last update. (He's planning another update this weekend.) So it would be nice to finish populating the icon & iconset pages. (I'm hoping to use some icons to alleviate to large blocks of unbroken text.) But the process for uploading the family of icon sizes & SVGs is unclear. Can you help?

(I wonder if putting all the instructional text in the icon template into a transclusion noincludes would boost the performance of the icon template? It wouldn't make much difference on pages with a couple of icons... but when there are dozens?)

We're thinking about ways to suppress superseded pages while leaving them accessible for users of old revs of Gramps.

I'm sketching out a template for a warning box that uses the noindex & nocat magic words, IDs the Gramps version, the page that superseded the page & the current page kid different from the updated page.

Looking forward to hearing back from you. -Brian
