Dear Dan, Geni, Hay and Jan: Thank you all for responding so quickly with your good suggestions!
Do any of these ideas resonate for you more than others? Have we missed anything else? 1. Ideas for a single class: .exclude .for-page-only .hide .media-reliant .media-secondary .media-navigational .nommw .noshow .unrelated or ... 2. Ideas for multiple classes: .navigational .maintenance .award .protection Which of these suggestions seem more practical to you? Should we take this discussion onwiki? or do you think we can resolve it via email? We would love to find a swift resolution together, so we can make this feature available sooner rather than later … Much appreciated, Fabrice On May 12, 2014, at 1:43 PM, Jan Ainali <jan.ain...@wikimedia.se> wrote: > How about just .unrelated?
