I propose merging the power grid software article into this one.--Anthony 14:58, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- Oppose. If Power Grid becomes large enough to document each option, and each other piece of software grows similarly, this page will be huge. --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 15:07, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- But the power grid article in its current state satisfies the need of the section on it in this article. I say that copying the current stub into this article for now as a summery and leave the original for expansion.--Anthony 15:17, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- If by 'merge' you mean 'copy the content here, but keep Power Grid as an independent page', then I'll Support. --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 18:29, 8 May 2007 (EDT)

Also, how do you scale down the images?--Anthony 14:59, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- I haven't had any luck with scaling images; I think the only thing to do might be to upload a smaller image. Also, the image you uploaded appears to be broken (i.e. all white). --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 15:05, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- It should be fine now. I can see the image on my computer. I will try making a smaller version sometime.--Anthony 15:17, 6 May 2007 (EDT)
- I think you can scale down the image like this: ^Image:30px-Disambig gray.svg.png|150px^ --Rubberchickenben 17:51, 7 May 2007 (EDT)
- You should be able to, but it doesn't work in my experience--The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 08:21, 8 May 2007 (EDT)
- Same here; I also tried ^^Image:docking2.png|thumb|right|150px|^^ also. It works on the main wikipedia sandbox but not on our wiki or so it seems.--Anthony 17:11, 8 May 2007 (EDT)
- There are several features Wikipedia has that we don't. This could be because we're using MediaWiki 1.5.6 and the current version is 1.9.3. We should look into rectifying this delay. --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 18:28, 8 May 2007 (EDT)
- OK, I checked mediawiki.org, and we'd have to update MySQL and PHP too. This looks like a job for... SUPERWEBSERVERADMINMAN!!!!!!! (who is not me) --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 18:31, 8 May 2007 (EDT)

- And who IS that? --Rubberchickenben 16:18, 10 May 2007 (EDT)
- Daniel Kekez (he's an alumnus). --The Killer Rabbit aka Nevin 16:59, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

Explanations
You know what would really be awesome? If someone who knew the orbit software were to put a brief explanation on the Wiki of every number in the display. - Darth Wombat 01:56, 13 March 2010 (EST)
