Hi. The [[Special:Permalink/100858|current page design]] feels pretty rough to me. The big blue button isn't really obviously a button. The translations section grid is awkward (three images, three images, one image). And it probably makes sense to archive/clear away the older reports in order to reduce noise and increase signal. --[[User:MZMcBride|MZMcBride]] ([[User talk:MZMcBride|talk]]) 18:15, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
: Some thoughts:
:* The button is problematic due to the base mw-ui design, so there's not a whole lot that can be done about it here beyond making it narrower - as is, it looks like a header more than anything else. Unfortunately, narrower, it would still look like a header in the position it's in.
:* If keeping the older ones here, they probably don't need the whole description anymore. Just a single line/link each should be enough, with translations collapsed to fit as well. Otherwise, archiving them to a template or something would also make sense for the reasons above.
:* The translations in the 2010 one are a bit confusing, as they stand out more than most anything else on the page, but they're old. Archiving or collapsing the old ones would resolve this, however.

Page design

Hi. The current page design feels pretty rough to me. The big blue button isn't really obviously a button. The translations section grid is awkward (three images, three images, one image). And it probably makes sense to archive/clear away the older reports in order to reduce noise and increase signal. --MZMcBride (talk) 18:15, 27 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Some thoughts:
  • The button is problematic due to the base mw-ui design, so there's not a whole lot that can be done about it here beyond making it narrower - as is, it looks like a header more than anything else. Unfortunately, narrower, it would still look like a header in the position it's in.
  • If keeping the older ones here, they probably don't need the whole description anymore. Just a single line/link each should be enough, with translations collapsed to fit as well. Otherwise, archiving them to a template or something would also make sense for the reasons above.
  • The translations in the 2010 one are a bit confusing, as they stand out more than most anything else on the page, but they're old. Archiving or collapsing the old ones would resolve this, however.
