Yes, the interface is horrible even in English. (And the resulting File: page. Have you ever tried to explain over the phone to someone where the licensing information is on a web page? Fun!) Has anything the WMF usability initiative has done seem helpful to you? That concentrated on English, but horrible interfaces cross language boundaries ... - d. _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l
