Error in bit layout illustration

The file Bfloat16_format.svg shows the wrong bit indices (first field is 0-7 when it should be 0-6). I tried uploading a newer version with that fixed. It shows up. But the SVG itself is the old version.

Maybe it's because I used the exact same filename. I still believe this behavior is incorrect. Tried changing the filename and reuploading. That version is not even showing up. Now I can't even upload newer versions. Maybe this was flagged for moderation.

I don't know. I give up. Uploading experience is really bad. --nachokb (talk) 09:21, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to be correct, now. I suppose that your issue was due to caching. Vincent Lefèvre (talk) 09:49, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

History

It would be good to have a section explaining where this format was introduced and a history of its adoption. — Steven G. Johnson (talk) 20:04, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
