Lists turned sideways, upside down, inside out
This whole thing with the columnated lists looks terrible. A bulleted list needs to be longer than its width to read easily. Having three bulleted names sit side-by-side looks ridiculous (see the Insecticons listing, for example) and is harder to read. It breaks the association and continuity between the names, rather than enhancing it, and for what? In the name of "getting rid of white space"? Uh... white space is free! Unlimited! It costs us nothing! Extra vertical scrolling? Please. The page is going to be huge no matter what. Having to hit the space bar 22 times instead of 20 times is a small price to pay for legibility. -- Repowers 09:43, 8 May 2009 (EDT)
- Yeah, looking at it in IE (which doesn't support multiple-column lists) it looks fine and the lists are much more readable to me. --abates 19:20, 8 May 2009 (EDT)
