JBPatch
This page has been deleted. The deletion and move log for the page are provided below for reference.
19:46, 7 August 2012 DaleDe (Talk | contribs) deleted "JBPatch" ‎ (Vandalism: content was: "This page contains information about JBPatch. JBPatch is a framework which allows to modify '''J'''ava '''B'''ytecode. At this time, only the [[Kindle Touch]..." (and the only contributor was "[[Special:Contributions/Ixta)
There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or edit this page.
I am curious how the original content can be interpreted as "vandalism", and why it could be considered a problem that ixtab was the only contributor.

EDIT: I restored the RAW text from the original JBPatch wiki page, but now it needs its wiki formatting put back into it so it looks like the cached page at Google.

The raw text does not contain the download links. You need to follow the google cache link at the top of the temporary replacement wiki page for download links.

Why would somebody delete valuable content like that, when it had 1800 page accesses? Deletion like that really IS vandalism.

Don't spend too much time editing that raw page . . .

If DaleDe agrees, he can just restore the original page.
If he doesn't agree, then he will just delete it again.

The only listed reasons for deletion were "vandalism" and that ixtab was "the only contributor". But it appears that the only REAL act of vandalism was the deletion itself. This is incredibly annoying. I hope this is not a sign of future hostility toward the most productive developers here.

Everybody who reads this, please send a message to DaleDe requesting that he restore the original content of the JBPatch wiki page. Thanks.

Actually there is some more. it was replaced with a spam text by 210.193.55.84 like this page

There *should* be a second (and more serious) case like this to make the mods delete this page completely

If it did contain SPAM as you say, some of the SPAM should have been in the deletion message instead of the original content, to avoid this confusion.

Unfortunately, the revision history was empty, and the reason for deletion showed a portion of the ORIGINAL content as an example of "vandalism". There was no evidence of anything OTHER than the original content having been on that wiki page. It appears that the original content was declared as vandalism (perhaps by a misbehaving "bot" that belongs to DaleDe?).

I am done wikitizing the the raw text. Some limitations include that the bundles patches do not have download links. It's taking a while to update......

Hi All,
I managed to download a copy of the JBPatch wiki page from Google's cached copy, so I've zipped it up for you if it's required. I presume it'll include all the html formatting needed.

Here are the l10n files for italian.
They contain single quotes and accented characters. Is this OK?

And ... Where do they have to be placed?

"ideal" is a subjective personal choice. I have no idea what YOUR ideal image size would be. You have to decide that for yourself.

OTOH, "optimal" image size is a tradeoff between reading small text on the cover image and fitting more images on the display.

Please request to join the Italian team at Transifex. This way, the entire process of updating translations is completely automated.
