I have done my best to address the concerns brought up in the previous FACs, and feel that this article now meets the standards of stability, comprehensiveness, and understandability required of featured articles. —Remember the dot ^(talk) 18:12, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wondering why isn't Google Chrome listed in the intro? Nergaal (talk) 06:34, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It's because Chrome is derived from Safari, which is mentioned in the lead. —Remember the dot ^(talk) 17:40, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image concerns as follow:

Can a Commons user with OTRS access verify if ticket #2321205 is meant for all screenshots of the Acid2 test, or just for specific screen captures?

I have asked Stifle to check. Jappalang (talk) 01:37, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Usage share of web browsers that pass Acid2.png: please indicate the source(s) used for this graph on the image page itself.
- Can you be more specific about what you want to see? The image description page already says "Author: Remember the dot, data from Net Applications". —Remember the dot ^(talk) 18:16, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ah, sorry, I read that as "Author: Remember the dot, from Net Applications" (missed the "data"). On that point, is Net Applications a reliable source for this data (pardon me for asking, I am a bit ignorant on this web statistics industry)? Jappalang (talk) 01:15, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    - All statistics should be taken with a grain of salt. While no statistics can be perfectly accurate, these ones are reasonably representative and clearly support the statement "Use of Acid2-conformant web browsers has consistently risen since October 2005." We have some less detailed statistics ([1] [2]) from XiTi, a European company, which also show that use of Acid2-conformant browsers is increasing. I made a spreadsheet of the XiTi data which I'm posting on the talk page for you if you're interested. —Remember the dot ^(talk) 04:53, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      - This would be more in line with WP:RS. Although images are not necessitated to be "reliable", we are talking about a Featured Article here, the best that Wikipedia has to offer. The graphs in such articles, likely, would have to be based on data from reliable sources as well, i.e. sources that the industry rely on, e.g. frequent quoting by the media, use as references in scholarly material, etc (per Ealdgyth's oft-quoted Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2008-06-26/Dispatches). Hence, would it be better to create the chart from the XiTi data (if it is a reliable source), or is Net Application an equally reliable source? Jappalang (talk) 06:17, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
