You could also just put it into User:Kaartic/common.css and wrap it in a
.page-User_Kaartic selector, that is less restrictive.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Can we drop revision hashes (rev_sha1)?

like to get rid of the rev_sha1 field:

Maintaining revision hashes (the rev_sha1 field) is expensive, and becomes more
expensive with MCR. With multiple content objects per revision, we need to track
the hash for each slot, and then re-calculate the sha1 for each revision.



Hello,

That was introduced by Aaron Schulz. The purpose is to have them pre 
computed since that is quite expensive to  have to do it on million of rows.


A use case was to easily detect reverts.

See for reference:

I guess Aaron Halfaker, Brion Vibber, Aaron Schulz would have some 
insights about it.

Im assuming here that you cannot just edit mediawiki:common.css


What you are looking for is TemplateStyles. This is not enabled on english
wikipedia yet, but should be coming there soon (I think). It would allow
you to use @media styles for your pages. See
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:TemplateStyles for more details.

Templatestyles does not let you use css variables (the properties starting
with -- and the var() css function), but the example css you used could
easily be rewritten to not use that feature.

[Wikitech-l] How to add custom styles to a page?

2017-09-16 Thread Kaartic Sivaraam 
I thought of using the 'layout-grid' Material design component on my 
user page


to make the userboxes respond to different screen sizes. It requires 
custom CSS


styles that have to be loaded when my user page is loaded. Where should 
I place


the CSS styles so that they get loaded each time my use page gets loaded?


N.B. : I can't place them inline, see for yourself [2].
