The template is covering up the text. I removed it. Conservative 23:41, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

Could you please post a screen shot so that I can look at how it renders and make appropriate changes to the table in the template? --Mtur 23:42, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't know what your talking about but the text of the article is being covered up by that thing you want to put in. Conservative 23:43, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

It isn't appearing like that on my screen, or Mtur's screen, apparently. Press "print screen", paste it in to MS paint, upload to Photobucket (or Imageshack), and then link us to the image. --Hojimachong^talk 23:46, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't have the software above, hoji. Conservative 23:47, 19 April 2007 (EDT)conservative

Could you say what operating system and browser are you using? It would go a ways to finding the problem (to see if someone else can recreate it) and finding a screen capture program for you to use. --Mtur 23:52, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

I think I fixed it; the template was using "float; 'absolute'" at 15px from the right. So it was at an absolute location, not relative to the rest of the content. I think that fixed it. --Hojimachong^talk 23:53, 19 April 2007 (EDT)

On the capitalization of Solar System

From the International Astronomical Union

The IAU formally recommends that the initial letters of the names of individual astronomical objects should be printed as capitals (see the IAU Style Manual, Trans. Int. Astron. Union, volume 20B, 1989; Chapter 8, page S30); e.g., Earth, Sun, Moon, etc. "The Earth's equator" and "Earth is a planet in the Solar System" are examples of correct spelling according to these rules.

Fixedearth.com

That fixedearth site doesn't look like a very reliable resource.... HelpJazz 18:56, 24 February 2008 (EST)

Well, logically you might think that, but... Feebasfactor 19:10, 24 February 2008 (EST)

That joke's not really that funny anymore. HelpJazz 21:08, 24 February 2008 (EST)

You're right. I'm sorry HelpJazz. :-( Feebasfactor 16:58, 25 February 2008 (EST)

Wasn't trying to be mean :( Look now I'm sad, too! HelpJazz 18:14, 25 February 2008 (EST)

XD Well sometimes I joke a bit too much. I do think you're a cool guy though. Feebasfactor 18:43, 25 February 2008 (EST)
