Hi there,

For big projects such as these, discuss the changes first. For example, you've added a part that says it's okay to add text on the video which it absolutely is not. The entire point of the videos is to not have any text explaining what it is happening, this is so it can be used on any language page. Also note that sudden changes to the entire layout of the page need to be discussed too, it can't suddenly be done without any prior discussion.

Hi!

I'm sorry if I did something wrong. I thought these changes to the wording and layout don't need much discussion anyway, also people in this Wiki seems not liking to reply the discussions based on my experiences... I just don't want to delay all the improvements by waiting people giving their opinions to these small things.

I saw Wind saying it's ok to add text, so I added that :/

Hmmm, well that goes directly against what he said before: "Re: in-video text: as GrampaSwood says, this is an intentional omission, such that the videos are embeddable on wiki pages in all languages. It also forces the videos to try to be simple enough to understand without words. There are some videos that break this rule when there's no other way to make things clearer." I'll bring it up on the main talk page because it really should not be a thing.
