Why do the style guide don't comply with the wikipedia way of life? http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Style_Guide "Start with just one = and not the double ==. For example:" http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Section#Creation_of_sections "Please do not use only one equals sign on a side (=text here=); this causes a title the size of the page name; which is taken care of automatically." the wikipedia one seems more logical. jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos

I think the SUSE way is more logical: = == === ==== When I start counting, I start with one. If the titlesize is automated, then do that and remove one = everywhere. The reason I think this is best is because you might WANT to have a difference between the =bla= and the first heading. The differences are made in opensuse.css: h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { color:#0b5147; background-color:transparent; border:none; margin-top:1em; } h1 { font-size:1.4em; } <snip> #content h1.firstHeading { font-weight:bold; border:none; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0.5em; padding-top:0px; font-size:1.6em; } See http://en.opensuse.org/User:Houghi that this is actually the case. Now wether or not you like that there is a difference is a complete different discusion. The discusion could be solved by having multiple css files to choose from and a cookie remembering wich one you liked. With CSS you could do a LOT to change the complete layout of the site and no need to do coding, because that could be done by the groupmembers themselves. :-) OK, you need to set up a place where people can select their CSS and perhaps also vote, so you can order them in number of votes. If you are interested in CSS and are not really familiar with it, yet want to see what it does, install the EditCSS extention for Firefox and also the extention "Web developer" perhaps. http://editcss.mozdev.org http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/ houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.

http://www.csszengarden.com/ is the best site I have ever seen showcasing the power of CSS design. You can select hundreds of different CSS styles of the same page, sometimes you have to view the page source to prove to yourself that your browser has recieved the same HTML page. eg compare: http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=188/188.css http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=195/195.css http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=166/166.css Peter 'Pflodo' Flodin

On the wikipedia way, title is the one.

The reason I think this is best
I realy don't mind if it's best or not, I only try to be consistent with the many number of mediawiki used elsewherer and than there are chances they use the wikipedia way. so is there a _real_ reason not to follow the general rules? and this in noway CSS related (Novell choosed not to give skin choice, I don't know why) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos
