:::Hi Mark, I have edited the {{tl|resolved}} flag to explain that the solution is only a workaround for the problem. A solution to fix the problem happening I believe would involve improvements to the Rich Text Editor. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] 15:25, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

This page was created when the content in Plone was ported over to the Wiki. Some concerns were raised dealing with the look and feel of the new home for content and also the navigation. The concerns at the time have been resolved. See the discussion that took place at [[FamilySearch Wiki talk:Look and feel and navigation|Talk:Look and feel and navigation]]. This page is currently categorized as FamilySearch Wiki, but likely needs a new category related to the ongoing development of the design and navigation of wiki content.

==The Displaying of the Username==
{{Unresolved}}
In the Wiki:Technical Meeting Agenda 28 December 2010, there was some concern expressed about MediaWiki or the wiki.familysearch.org default to make public and display the username rather the display name for example https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/Special:ListUsers.  After talking with the engineers over the Wiki, they said that it was the default code that MediaWIki came with and if it could be changed it would require a "Core Change" to change it.  I submitted an enhancement request and maybe that change will be made.
