First picture caption

The caption for the first picture ("Richard Symonds setting up volunteer laptops when it first arrived.") is poorly worded, what would be better depends on what you was newly arrived:

  • If it was Richard, change "it" to "he"
  • If it was multiple laptops, change "it" to "they"
  • If it was a single laptop, change "volunteer laptops" to "a volunteer laptop" Thryduulf (talk: local | en.wp | en.wikt) 12:18, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
    • ps: In any scenario, perhaps change "volunteer lapop(s)" to "laptop(s) for volunteers" as the laptops themselves are not volunteering. </pedant> Thryduulf (talk: local | en.wp | en.wikt) 12:20, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
      • Quite right, it now reads "Richard Symonds setting up laptops for volunteers when they first arrived." Richard Nevell (WMUK) (talk) 12:22, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

Calls to action

It's good to see that this is keeping up momentum each month. :-) Can I suggest making the calls to action clearer, particularly in the email newsletters? I'd also suggest aiming to have one per section if at all possible. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 18:53, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

Image sizes

Has the problem with the images appearing huge in Outlook been fixed for this edition? (And before anyone asks, it's not me, my set-up is totally standard) Philafrenzy (talk) 00:59, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
