layout, style, etc. etc.?. One thing I am concerned about is that any change in status will attract image size ***, who will change the images to unreadable postage stamp size (after months of careful "magazine" layout, or who will object to the major sectionalization (after much work and consideration by myself and another editor, this was quickly undone by a previously unseen editor but also quickly reverted by myself), etc.

I will be occupied elsewhere for the next few weeks and welcome your checking the links and in the monitoring of any edits. Thanks very much for your efforts on the article. Best wishes, 680:

images will cause intrusion into the references section. I thought the size before your latest change was a good compromise to give a reasonable layout for each of these two extreme cases and rather than make your choice smaller (which you had reverted when I did it via IP 67.174.211.196 <= not a permanently fixed IP), I made other changes to acommodate your choice.

Do not mess with the navbox template, you just made it look alot worst, and you put it on top of the article. You have absolutely no idea how the standards for articles are.

A bit of a problem - on narrow screens (1024, wide by olden day standards, later considered small, but now common in certain cases), the YBITS construction layout with wider images will squeeze the text left into a rather narrow column, while on very wide screens with very small text, the wider YBITS

That's unnecessary, and confusing. The navigation box is merely to help someone find other related articles. I set it up to whichever 3 years they premiered. Instead of showing when they aired, and when they ended so it can be easier to navigate. Navigation box isn't a wikitable meant for that type

Hi Gigget: Re:ESR-SFOBB If you can figure a way to do this, the YBITS lead two-image gallery looks good in layout with centered images but requires left justified text. Centering the gallery also centers the text (see the Construction Process gallery, that needs it too, but not as desperately. CSS

I think that that this article has reached a point of stability and needs little to bring it up to "A" status (currently "B"), probably mostly a check of the external links for link rot. Other than that, which I and Giggett will do, would you care to review for tone, presentation, order, grammar,

This is not quite sensible to me- Moving the gallery up brings it closer to the tower image, not further (IMHO it does not look as nice in overall layout), and I see no conflict with the "unordered list" (is this the location list of the cable wire placement?). If it is browser or window size
