Rotem-
I have hand-coded from scratch a concept demo of
the phase IV new
dynamic layout I'm thinking of. This should be XHTML 1.1/CSS compatible.
When you say coded, do you mean coded, or written? Is there any actual PHP
code? I prefer to use "code" for code only, and "write" for
HTML/CSS.
Having the page-specific elements "attached" to the page like this is kind
of neat. This also applies to delete, protect, watch etc. Putting
discussion and content on the same page looks interesting, but won't work
well for very long pages. Perhaps there should be a maximum length at
which the discussion is linked to instead of embedded.
The search box lacks a go button equivalent. Perhaps something like
Everything2's "[ ] ignore exact" could be used.
The discussion background is too dark in this demo, and the table
separators are too thick.
The meaning of the [+] is not intuitively clear to me. And what would the
[X] for the article display window do?
Please try to think of good ways to integrate the features that are
currently running on
test.wikipedia.org, namely
- section editing
- table of contents
- appending to the bottom of a page on talk pages ("Post a comment")
Regards,
Erik
This is static, hard-coded XHTML :-) you are right, "written" is more
precise... My usual answer: ofcourse ofcourse ofcourse.. yes limiting
dicussion length is good, button for search, interlanguage links, TOC,
section editing, change damn ugly discussion background, "add a new
message", bigger titles, mysetrious [+], yada yada yada. good good good
will be all changed. I just don't have time, will work on it later this
week!! :-)
