Re: [pygame] how to remove spam comments in pygame wiki



As the designer of the new site I'm against that idea on principle.

I really hate using pages with no max width on widescreen monitors as it forces me to resize my window to read the pages.  Readability and usability suffer with expanding width pages after a certain width, which is why I like having max widths.  I don't think any readability is gained by having more than 80-100 characters per line, and that readability and usability is actually hindered.  I could probably increase the max width slightly, but I do not want it over 100 characters for the main page column, it is at 80 something now I believe.
