How do I find out the IP address or logged in username of something added/edited quite awhile ago? I found an unsigned comment and thought I'd add the unsigned template, but I couldn't find any information in the history about who added or last edited it.. I couldn't even tell _when_ the particular article section was last edited. Is there anything that will tell me this? Thanks! -- Silvaran ( talk)

Hello Davidgothberg:
I saw a note about the new code and it sounds like a very useful thing to me. I waste too much time looking at diffs, wondering what is different.
However, when I copied the code into my file
User:Wanderer57/monobook.css nothing happened.
Probably the problem is that I am missing other code that is required, Because I do not know the syntax of the css, I am stuck. I would appreciate if you would take a quick look and then tell me if there is an article that i should read to learn what I did wrong (or did not do)
The problem was solved after I logged out and back in.
Please what would be the code to make links more prominent. So that for example, I would see Adam instead of Adam?
What I should really ask is where I can find basic instructions about CSS coding in Wikipedia.
Thank you, Wanderer57 ( talk
Thank you. I will set limited goals and hope to make some progress.
The .diffchange code that I put in my monobook.css to underline the changes works fine. Am I correct in thinking that that code is overriding other code stored elsewhere?
If that's the case, where is the "other" code? Are there multiple locations? (I understand that I should not even think about editing that code. It might be informative to look at it.
One more question, then I'll go away. What does "monobook" stand for?
Thank you very much. Wanderer57 ( talk) 1 May 2008
