Phab items
[edit]Was searching for something in Phabricator, and along the way found these interesting.
- T179356 Minerva should not alter or hide edit icons when not operating on mobile-formatted content. (Resolved Nov 2017)
- T229440 [EPIC] Refactor icon sizing in MF/Minerva to achieve consistency.
- T208102 Improve compatibility of desktop VisualEditor with desktop Minerva skin. (Resolved May 2019, MW 1.34)
- T162503 VE in Timeless makes cactions non-responsive, trapping users forever. ("Cactions" means content actions, apparently.)
- T124168 Show Navbox templates in mobile skins. (Interesting ideas here. Started 2016, no comments since Dec 2018.)
- T174119 Fix several design features of WikiEditor and CodeEditor to match the general style, and T223155 WikiEditor uses Apex-like styling in Vector for the toolbar; change this to WikimediaUI-style. (OOUI, Apex-like, Wikimedia-UI, oh my!)
Whole-page editing in mobile view
[edit]Was going to create a Phab task, but there already are some:
- T2156 – Add section edit link for 0th section of a page/article. OMG this has been open since 2007?
- T196915 – Give mobile editor a way to edit more than just a single section at once
- T203151 – Consider adding a button to let users edit the whole page in MobileFrontend.
Adding sections in mobile view
[edit]…
Other gripes
[edit]- Mobile editor: page title / tab caption doesn't change to "Editing:…" Given how small the tabs are in Safari, this is a mixed blessing. Maybe it should just be "E:" or ">".
VE as default on mobile
[edit]- T227338 – Test visual editor as the default mobile editor on select wikis
