Several design issues between SU main & meta [closed]

Question

I stumbled upon some minor layout issues while switching superuser's main and meta. I felt only one of them wasn't enough for a meta post, so I collected them.

Fixed over time

• The superuser website header and meta.superuser header aren't exactly at the same position. Please note, that stackoverflow's main and meta header are well aligned » Fixed
• Community Bulletin link title is also slightly at another position as its counterpart on the main site » Fixed
• The r in superuser gets cut off for some reason on the main site header » Fixed
  • Missing space on Profile » activity » suggestions between the word on and the subject
• Column headers are missing on SU footer while present on meta.SU footer
• In the meta.SU footer. Those two links are underlined while they aren't on SU main site footer

Edit:

^{After two years, the following things probably will never change.}

• The about Tour link is missing on meta SU footer while it is present on the main site's footer

• The tag filter field, only visible while reviewing, doesn't allow tags with placeholders like *excel*. But placeholders are allowed when using the main site's favorite/ignored tag option

/thx & closed :)

Answer 1

As children of the StackOverflow system, I expect sites to have some minor differences from their parent.

The concept of there being a (fuzzy) continuity between the site is a concept that I agree with. But, to expect that each site will be a cookie-cutter variant of every neighbor isn't something I would expect.

Some gross differences between sites maybe deserve some notice and intervention, but in general, I think that SuperUser fits the template pretty well.

For SU and meta-SU to have some minor differences, I consider trivial.

*(all of this is my opinion)
