Bug Description

There's a wee glitch in the Librarian Mode on Edit Edition tab.

The preview field and markdown ? are too far over to the right.

Also, perhaps we should a single line height to the preview panel, or hide it completely. It looks like it's not supposed to be there in it's current collapsed state.

And! I noticed that the Markdown ? opens in a new tab for me... I thought we'd agreed to make that open in a new window without the normal navi so you could use it as a reference when you're looking at the thing you're trying to edit. (Also, there are a few typos on the ? page.)

Shifted the markdown buttons and the preview is now hidden until its textarea is in focus. I found a couple of typos in the markdown page, but if there are more I can't find the page can be edited online:

Within WMD, you can specify a target for the help link but nothing more. The page in question is using a PAGE template and that cannot be modified with any scripts that might hide parts of the page. This is similar to the Spam page problem we had earlier.

We would need to create another template for this page, like Anand did for the case of the Spam page, or a type of template for pages that shouldn't have the usual page headers and footers.

Correction: Two spaces at the end of line are not required for
linebreaks. Adding a line break will insert a <BR/>.

Line <br/> Line

I have complete control of the WMD editor. Let me know what you want
I'll add that functionality/customization.

We might be able to do it without creating another template. Do you
want to hide "last modified..", edit button and history? Should that
be done only for this page or for all write-protected pages?
