::To be perfectly honest, it's better to fix this with CSS code rather than making the pages harder to read for editors.  That way, you get the best of both worlds, you don't have to create some arbitrarily random "edit the pages like this" policy, and the source is still legible and easy to comprehend. -- [[User:Sulfur|sulfur]] 11:50, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

:::I would of course prefer a solution as you describe, Sulfur.  But how, specifically, can it be done?  '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]'''  [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 16:03, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

::From a discussion we had on this on Memory Alpha, specifically about the sidebars, "in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]], you will, for example, see that the formatting definitions for a sidebar table ("table.wiki-sidebar", right at the top) contain margin definitions like "margin-bottom:1em". Similar definitions exist for many other "table" or "div" classes. This definition means that, wherever a sidebar is added to a page, it will be followed by a "gap" of 1em height (where "em" is a unit relating to font size)"
::Yah, I got lazy and quoted, but that's the general gist of it. -- [[User:Sulfur|sulfur]] 16:17, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
