I play Minecraft and it brings me back to travel, erm, Darwin's adventure


Caveats to this diagram:
 * 1) Boats hanging on the davits port and starboard are drawn half size.
 * 2) Philip Gidley King created the diagram from memory when in his 80s, decades after his time on the Beagle.
 * 3) There forecastle does not comport with records.
 * 4) The windlass? Should be just aft the foremast, not on the forecastle where the 6 pound gun was on a turret.
 * 5) Where is the Galley?
 * 6) Main mast too far forward?

See John Chancellor's essay about his Beagle reenactment painting and his research for it.

I enjoyed Wikitravel when it was run by Evan and Michele. The corporate Internet Brands Wikitravel disappointed. I look forward to where we will go now with Wikivoyage as our ark.

This now: TOC.

Now that: Puzzler


 * County Sligo <-- why is TOC appearing down page on this page? Is it the two images? (TOC appears aligned with top of second image?)

Guess where wikivoyage goes?

below are my notes

{| id="my-columns" width=100%
 * - valign="top"
 * id="my-left-column" style="padding-right: 1.5em" |

It also floats TOC left

Defaults are:

$wgDefaultUserOptions ['toc-floated'] = false; $wgDefaultUserOptions ['toc-expand'] = false;

However, Wikivoyage (probably in LocalSettings.php) overrides the float default to true.


 * id="my-right-column" style="padding-left: 1.5em; border-left: solid gray thin;" |

Bruegel's Bestiary

 * Experiment with CSS to fix TOC layout issues.
 * List items don't indent properly when flowed next to TOC.
 * List items jump left after flowing past bottom of TOC.
 * Long TOC item names wrap without much indication that they have done so; maybe out-dent item initial line so that wrapped lines appear indented. But remember to design solution to work well with multi section level TOC which uses indent to indicate sub-section levels.
 * Toc can crash with ==Headings== in some situations, see here.
