File:Distrowatch.png

Hello. Are you able to create and upload a new screenshot of DistroWatch over this one? Because the current one is very wide, which makes it look a bit distorted (at least not ideal) in the infobox in the article. A version taken of the webpage in a narrower resolution would be much welcome. Flakesosa (talk) 21:40, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

@Flakesosa:   Done.Vulcan❯❯❯Sphere! 00:16, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
Actually it's just a small number of pixels less and doesn't really make a visible difference. A new screenshot has to be made (window size can be changed to make it look narrower). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flakeƨosa (talkcontribs) 15:10, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
Uploaded a more narrower one, up to the narrowest window size without breaking the language selector on the top.Vulcan❯❯❯Sphere! 23:19, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Reminder

Hello VulcanSphere, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please ensure that when you add information to, or change information in, Wikipedia that it is substantiated by citations. For instance, do not change wording from "owns" to "formerly owned" (as you did here [1]) without adding a citation confirming that the business is no longer owned by the subject company. When adding a citation to Wikipedia, do not add claims that are not verified in that citation (as you did on that same edit [2]). I have now cleaned up both problems, Please be more careful in the future. Thanks! Softlavender (talk) 06:13, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
