it:Template:Football kit
Please refrain to make such edits without any prior discussion; the SVG version is used since March and nobody complained about it, if you feel it's a big issue reach a local consensus before. --Brownout (msg) 15:10, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- IE6 users tend to be the least technical hence the lack of complaints - but it will be rendering as white kits for all those people. Do you really think breaking the template for 20% of internet users isn't a big deal? ed g2s • talk 16:51, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- In fact if you look at the talk page there have been complaints. ed g2s • talk 16:52, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- I think that before reverting to an older version a fairly stable template included in ~3000 articles you should at least discuss. --Brownout (msg) 17:05, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- PS: I kinda agree with the Germans, IE6 is horribly old, nobody should use it.

Field hockey
Hi, Ed g2s, you not recognise me. I'm working around in field hockey area. I'm impressed with your creation of soccer shade, i like to have one in field hockey, recently i create Image:Penalty stroke.png but i'm not happy with my creation and i want to learn something or some idea from you. Can you help me little bit, passing some idea? Thanks if you can help. --Aleenf1 11:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Template:Nutritionalvalue
Hi Ed. I noticed your experimental edits of {{nutritionalvalue}}. Next time you edit a complex template or when you are not absolutely sure what result your edit to the template will cause, I recommend you use the /sandbox and perhaps the /testcases subpages of the template. Or you can experiment on a subpage in your own user space. Thus you don't cause weird looking article pages while you experiment. And you save a lot of server load, since each time you change a deployed template lots of articles are re-rendered.
You can learn more about this at Wikipedia:Template test cases.
--David Göthberg (talk) 13:54, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
- Ed: You really should come to Template talk:Nutritionalvalue and explain the purpose of your major edits to the {{nutritionalvalue}} template, and what changes those edits mean. We should not have to spend hours comparing code line by line and run tests to figure out what changes you might have added.

Talk page
Just letting you know - my talk is currently broken in IE and Opera, so I have decided to get a new design. I was going to design one, but I usually end up screwing it up some way or another. Anyway, I am borrowing yours (with some modifications) for now, not going live until I've sorted out the aforementioned mods though. If you have any objections to this, please do make them known. Thanks again, — neuro(talk) 16:05, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, and I forgot to mention, I will credit you at the bottom of both my talk and user pages, as I may use a modified version of your userpage for mine as well. As I say, any objections, just say. :) — neuro(talk) 16:09, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
Suspension
Hi, I noticed you were the one created the match report templates and uploaded the images to Wikipedia, so I hope I'm ask the right person here... =) Do you know if there is a similar image or template on a "2-minute suspension" given in handball? It should be a hand showing the peace-sign "backwards", look at this document on page 65 for a preview. Hope you can help? =) lil2mas (talk) 23:44, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
I'd like to hear what you've got to say about MediaWiki talk:Common.css#captions_are_off-center. Thanks. —Ms2ger (talk) 18:10, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
Commons de-adminship warning
Hi. Please see Commons:User talk:Ed g2s#De-adminship_warning_2. Thanks! — Jeff G. ツ 19:20, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
Germany map
Is it possible for this map: [1], to be changed to only three dots/locations (Gelsenkirchen, Cologne, and Mannheim)? It is for this article. Slaja (talk) 20:20, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
Query
Once upon a time (about 6 years ago), you uploaded File:British Empire 1897.jpg. Would you happen to remember where you got it from? Nikkimaria (talk) 18:07, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
Robin van Persie protection
Hi there,
I was just about to action the unprotection when you beat me to it! Just to let you know, I've restored the semi-protection that was already on that article, as it's got a long history of vandalism, and football fans being what they are, that's likely to continue. Hope you don't mind! GedUK 12:33, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
Template:Football kit box
Hi!
I'm pretty sure something went wrong with the "Template:Football kit box" template when you edited it last. I noticed that the usage of the template in an article I wrote suddenly appeared different than what it used to. Instead of the kits aligning to the right and next to each other they all line up over each other which messes up the layout of the page. See here for an example of what I'm talking about. Do you think that you could perhaps fix the template? Thanks! --Reckless182 (talk) 22:01, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
- That is the correct behaviour for three right-aligned images, the fact they were side-by-side before was an unintended consequence of it not being set up correctly. If you want them side by side you should place them non-floated inside a right-floated container. ed g2s • talk
- Thanks! I found a way.--Reckless182 (talk) 22:44, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, Ed g2s!
- I think Reckless182 was right. The boxes can't align left - I left you the original message here but I think you were on a break, if you want we can continue the convo there. Thanks in advance! BigSteve (talk) 10:18, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Trying to track down an associate of yours...?
Hi 'Ed g2s'
I am trying to get hold of someone who has credited you on their wiki user page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Unisouth
Do you have any contact details for Unisouth or the ability to get me in touch with them?
Many thanks,
Marcus — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trainspots Editor (talk • contribs) 13:16, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't know them. ed g2s • talk 13:19, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
Ahh well, worth a shot. Thanks anyways — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trainspots Editor (talk • contribs) 13:55, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
VisualEditor
Do you have a wider concern, as removing sourced content just because the source has a dead link in it isn't not even WP:DEADREF. Would be good to resolve on the talk. Widefox; talk 13:05, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
