WhoWeAre Page - Suggestion

[Thomas Ward]

Hiya, QA team!

I may not be a tester, but I watch the ubuntu-quality list almost as
closely as I watch the bugsquad and bug control mailing lists.

I noticed this email chain here, so if you don't mind, I'd like to give a
suggestion as to a solution.

long links in the "Website" column.  Now, I'm not a wiki expert, but it
looks like the whole long links, and especially the wordpress blog links,
are causing the column to flow past the edges of the default page format.

My suggestion would be to add those as [[http://webaddress.tld/|Link]]
replacing only the webaddress.tld part, which in turn makes "Link" display
instead of the web address, which may help to fix the
overflow-past-the-side issue.

In testing, I went in and used "Edit" / "Preview" to test this, and this
will solve the too-wide-a-column issue, although it will not show the full
link(s).

I may not be a QA team member, nor a tester, but I hope you don't mind me
putting my two-cents on this.  :)
