when looking at an article, a little "improve
this page" popped up at
the bottom. can it be that some of the links are misguided?
"learn how to edit" does not link to the "learn how to edit" page
(
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_Feedback_Tool/Editing).
but it links on a page telling how to navigate around, how to create
an account, and how to edit.
the "learn how to edit" page,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_Feedback_Tool/Editing
does not contain a short reason or wizard to create an account.
the help icon "?" pops up a little window saying "wikipedia wants to
know what you think".
on this little pop up there is a link "learn more" (about wikipedia
wants to know what you think obviously?) which then links to a help
page showing on top an image (png) where one should enter the
feedback. (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_Feedback_Tool/Version_5/Help)
then i tried to type in feedback into that image - which finally made
me write this mail :)
and - if you really press edit - one ends up at an article saying:
This article has a long history of vandalism. Please note that such
disruption will be met with blocks from editing. Please report
vandalism on this article to the administrator's vandalism
noticeboard.
This article uses British English and spellings such as "artefacts"
should not be changed to American English spellings such as
"artifacts".
Thank you.
