Hello, as you are certainly more fluent in table markup than the guys at the help desk, could I trouble you to take a quick look at USS Pueblo (AGER-2)#Awards? The second table is small, just four cells, but if you could center the single cell of the top row above the three-cell second row, it would be appreciated. I would also like to see the markup for future use. Thanks & Cheers - wolf 19:17, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

wikitable background color, but was unable to do so and not have the faint ghost artifact of the hidden borders remain, so I set the table to inherit the background color of the page, which is a little more versatile than hardcoding to white, as I had done earlier. I did the same for the upper name table so they are consistent. I know there should be a way to copy the normal background color of the wikitable
class (whatever it is for a given configuration; nominally #f8f9fa
) for the non-empty cells, but need to explore some more. I got excited about empty-cells:hide
but unfortunately it doesn't work with border-collapse:collapse

Loopy30 (talk) has given you some popcorn. Popcorn is crunchy goodness, and is wonderfully delicious!
To spread the goodness of popcorn, you can add ((subst:Popcorn)) to someone's talk page with a friendly message.

@Loopy30: Thanks! That really hits the spot. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 01:42, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
Or should that be colour vandal... :-) Materialscientist blocked the current IP, I've protected every colour page the IP range edited. There must be more pages they might like, do ping if you see any more action and I'm about. Ronhjones (Talk) 01:17, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
AlanM1, I'm sorry about reverting your "alleged" added to the claim of largest bomb ever exploded. That does seem to be the case in all the lists of nuclear tests that I'm familiar with. At a minimum, inasmuch as such a claim is very surprising, I think it should be explained, giving at least one example (or hint, if it's that mysterious) of a larger explosion as a positive defense. Thanks. SkoreKeep (talk) 19:36, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
The bomb had a yield of 50 megatons of TNT (210 PJ).is too concrete, since different sources have claimed different values. The two accessible sources cited for that very paragraph (the NIE and the S&GS paper) claim 58 MT. I don't think we can claim "is" or "was" for any of the numbers – it's more like "is thought to be" or "according to ...", no? —[AlanM1(talk)]— 21:55, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
Hi AlanM1. I noticed that you recently used celebritynetworth as a source for biographical information in Tina Turner. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. Thesun.co.uk is similarly unreliable. WP:RS/P has an entry for both. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks.--Ronz (talk) 22:18, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello A. I only just figured out what was going on with my talk page. I am sorry for your experience trying to keave the pic. I do appreciate your efforts and I liked the pic of your cat. Best regards and enjoy your Sunday. MarnetteD|Talk 23:33, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
But unfortunately this guy has also done the same thing (added a Spanish-language translation of the name) on literally dozens (if not hundreds) of other pages for California place names: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/Cristiano_Tomás&offset=&limit=500&target=Cristiano+Tomás — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rsfinlayson (talk • contribs) 19:56, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
Hey AlanM1. Thanks for the edit, I messed up there. I have a question regarding grammar, should the quote box say "to Larry King Live" or "on Larry King Live"? or maybe something else? I'm curious because I'm not a native English speaker. Thank you. Musicfan122 (talk) 01:53, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
source=— Turner, ''[[Larry King Live]]'', 1997
I changed it to the wording you mentioned, I agree that "To" sounds a bit off. Thanks for the feedback! Musicfan122 (talk) 17:37, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello AlanM1,
The RFC draft may be expired, you are correct on this.
However "without going any further." is false: the record type was actually assigned by IANA:
https://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-parameters/
The page List_of_DNS_record_types would be an incomplete untruthful resource without it even mentioned.
And I guess it's actually not the only officially assigned DNS RR type without an RFC.

Are you familiar with Mexico City? If so, I'd love to share a few images of uncategorized subjects (mostly buildings) I'm hoping someone might be able to identify. If not, no problem! ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:56, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
•Hi ALANM1, Thank you for checking my edit on “Economy of Iran”. I wonder if you can explain a little more. As you have mentioned prices go up everywhere, but I, myself, was surprised to see that price of onion becomes a major issue in a country and that Radio Farda brings it up in a big heading.[1] I just want to have your advice for my future edits. Thank you and Have a nice day. Alex-h (talk) 11:02, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
