In common use, is the template {{Nbsp}} (a.k.a. {{Spaces}}) preferred to & nbsp;? —GoldRingChip 13:10, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

in the blockquotes the paragraph tags width of 30em is too wide on mobile.

the quotes extend past rhe right edge, allowing me to scroll the entire page horizontally, or zooming out, leaving a blank strip at the right side of the screen – but allowing me to read the entire blockquote Joshinils (talk) 04:48, 17 August 2025 (UTC)

bold but not too bold; are fixed color values still a current recommendation?

Seeing as dark mode is available everywhere now, is using the light-gray color value of #666666 as a fixed-value still a good idea?

What'd be the alternative?

Is there a CSS variable or class for that instead now? Joshinils (talk) 04:54, 17 August 2025 (UTC)
