Mark up vs. Markup

The first paragraph contains reference to "mark up". I believe it would be helpful if the space between the words was eliminated, and the word hyperlinked to "markup languages". I believe this because the way it is currently written was confusing to me (as a very new coder, only beginning to grasp terms and concepts). It sounded as though this was a specific term I would need to know, but the way it was written seemed more generic. I used a popular search engine to find a clear meaning. The results referred to pricing mark ups, so I added "code" to my search. Only then did I have a result that pointed me back to Wikipedia, for the entry about "markup languages." Note that the word "markup" appears later in this article, and is hyperlinked. Thank you. Karmashines (talk) 07:15, 18 December 2018 (UTC)Karmashines[reply]

Done. I agree. This is grammatically a bit strange, but I think you have the right idea. Per wikt:Mark up, the code is being "marked up", but this is a verb, not a noun, and a wikilink to markup language is the most obvious way to explain this concept. I have made the changes you've proposed. Thanks! Grayfell (talk) 08:22, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What has been done

For this article, I had been putting up facts about web design that I had found. But, the main problem is that everything has been taken down. So, I am trying to figure out what is wrong with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fredmaurer (talk • contribs) 16:05, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, your older edits were taken down for copyright violation (that is, copy and pasting from sources). Your latest edits have writing problems, for example: "Many guidelines help the people with the idea behind web design for a visual path to make them successful.", "When looking toward most websites, they have the traditional look." - I'm not even sure what information you're trying to convey there. - MrOllie (talk) 16:55, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article mentions "User Interface" design 6 times but makes no mention of the most important and most used visual chart "UX Honeycomb" when creating a user interface. UI/UX design is the base and fundamental aspect of web design. The UX honeycomb references the main 7 pillars of design. Is it useful? Is it useable? Is it desirable? Is it findable? Is it valuable? Is it accessible? Is it credible? It could be why "User Interface" wikipedia doesn't rate very far. Everyone else mentions the UX honeycomb. It's very important to design.

It is a somewhat popular chart in some UX circles, but I'm not seeing that it's relevant enough to mention on this article and it's not really foundational. A brief summary of what user experience design is about should be enough. – Thjarkur (talk) 23:33, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 30 November 2019

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Web design. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
