Short description When you edit a page you get a warning, that other users will be warned about you editing that page. However, this warning looks just like the warning you get, when somebody else is editing the text... After editing some pages, you will not notice that warning anymore and will hence not see the important warning of somebody else editing it. Hence I'd propose to have different kinds of warnings
Information and Warning
which can be styled differently in the CSS. Then the informational warnings can be let's say blue and the real warnings can be red... or whatever.
I think this is a very good idea. I do always run over these messages either. For a closely related issue see MoinMoinBugs/ArbitraryInjectionOfErrorMessage. This was also a pitfall for me.. -- OliverSiemoneit 2007-04-04 22:27:55
Do you know lock instead of warn, most of our wikis do use lock. By this it is impossible to edit at the time the same page. -- ReimarBauer 2007-04-05 11:13:14
No, thanks, didn't know that but HelpOnEditLocks helped. But in the case only 'warning' is enabled it would be nevertheless nice that e.g. the message box is drawn in red then.. -- OliverSiemoneit 2007-04-05 17:25:40
Annotation: It is one criteria for AccessilbeMoin not only to convey meaning by color (see e.g. MoinMoinBugs/1.6devCommentSectionsNotAccessibleByScreenreaderOrWithCssDisabled). Blind people can't see that. An extra text like "Warning:" or "Information:" just before the real message text is therefore needed.
