I'm yet to run into a full limit in the contribution notes window, and everything appears in the notes history for each title, but notes over a certain length are cut off in the voting window (about 1000 characters by the look of things), so people can't see all the documentation for changes unless they go into the program and access the contribution history for that title manually.

I agree on having more space in the contribution note display. But do you realize that there is a direct link to the contribution notes history on the evaluation screen? No need to go inside the program.

Why don't I provide what? You claim to have evidence of me starting fights on the forums, I know I haven't, what exactly do you want me to provide?

You ARE negative-happy, Skip. You jump on any excuse to give me negative votes, and I'm not the only one you do it to, but I don't care, I've never brought it up either in public or PM with anyone, and given that nine times out of ten it is clear that you are either wrong or voting to preference, it doesn't make a difference.

THIS one, however, was indicative of a problem, not just with you, but with the program itself, and hence I brought it to the forum. And it will be said that I didn't make it about you, YOU'RE the one who put yourself in the spotlight. You changed your vote, so if you hadn't started up (which in fairness I should have anticipated, you having absolutely no impulse control), no-one would even have known. It's your paranoia and thin-to-no-skin that made this fight, not my anonymous comments.

Now, put up, why don't you? All you need to do to "win" this is prove your initial complaint against me; your insistence that I start fights. These days, at any given time, it can be assumed that there are anything around half a dozen threads in the contributions forum in which you are being uncivil, that doesn't need backing up. But once you take off your red-tinted glasses and actually look at me, you'll find that it's NOT me starting fights, with anyone, even you. Unless you can turn it around, prove me tp be the liar and PROVIDE THE NAME. That's ALL you have to do. Why haven't you done it yet?

I personally would not support longer contribution notes. Keep it short and simple and put the most vital information first.

Course I have a very different view of contribution notes that most of you do

And yes, I understand why Gerri, why you would not want longer notes, but I think what Nadja was referring to, is that unless you look for it. Our notes are limited to 1000 characters, but the notes that a voter sees are truncated to 500 unless he happens to realize that there is more information hidden. I actually find the 500 character limit to very manageable with the way in which I manage my collection, in smaller bites, making use of child profiles. But for those who like masive loads of data, I can see why that limit might become more difficult. Personally it sounds to like yet another very good reason to make use of Child Profiles and break up the data.
