Should fixed cell formatting (e.g., {{nowrap}}) in calendar tables be reduced to allow text wrapping on mobile devices? Wiki wikied (talk) 12:25, 1 August 2026 (UTC)
Those knowledgeable in graphic design and data visualization on Wikipedia are requested to consider designs for charts, here, specifically for choice of a chart summarizing wealth inequality in the United States suitable for the article lead section. Please focus on policies, guidelines, principles and reasoning underlying your opinion. —RCraig09 (talk) 15:59, 29 July 2026 (UTC)

Should the first sentence describe Guardiola as a Spanish football manager and former player from Catalonia ("Spain first") or a Catalan football manager and former player from Spain ("Catalan first")?
Background:
This is a perennial debate for which descriptive guidance has been compiled in the form of WP:CATLEDE#Footballers. This is not instructive.
The Catalan first option has had precedence at this article with a note asking Please do not change without discussing on talk page and reviewing RfC on Spanish regional identities; Paul Vaurie has changed this, most recently in June after ignoring attempt to discuss with them in January.
In light of the above discussion regarding conflicting MOS advice, should this article follow WP:OLY and use American English for the hosts or follow WP:CRIC and use British English for consistency across cricket articles? The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 11:58, 5 July 2026 (UTC)
Add the tag {{rfc|xxx}} at the top of a talk page section, where "xxx" is the category abbreviation. The different category abbreviations that should be used with {{rfc}} are listed above in parenthesis. Multiple categories are separated by a vertical pipe. For example, {{rfc|xxx|yyy}}, where "xxx" is the first category and "yyy" is the second category.
