Coords

[edit]

@GraemeLeggett: Any better suggestions? Keith-264 (talk) 12:01, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draw the route on a map and add it to the article? Couod probably reuse same image for some articles. GraemeLeggett (talk) 14:07, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would that I knew how. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 15:34, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Are there any maps of the route in the official histories I could crib from? I could probably draw the route on a CC map and use that.GraemeLeggett (talk) 08:52, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Roskill has a fair few [1] There is also the Russian diagram. I put 'Data from... unless indicated' for when more information comes available but you can revert that if you prefer. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 09:20, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Table widths

[edit]

@Hohum: I think that tables look better with the same width, close to the right margin, don't you? Regards Keith-264 (talk) 17:05, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The adjustment was for readability per table for various browser widths, so that the notes section preferentially shrinks before the other columns, which get difficult to read if wrapped. (Hohum @) 17:31, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I feared as much; is there something like |upright to compensate? Regards Keith-264 (talk) 21:32, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Xyl 54: You might want to venture an opinion about layouts. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 17:33, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
