Bug #: 37878
Summary: Rearranging the display of advanced options on
Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-searchoptions
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: mediaw...@kghoffmeyer.de
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
So far the namepaces available to be searched are arranged like this:
[ ] Main
[ ] Talk
[ ] User
[ ] User talk
...
In the meantime it is not very rare that installations offer 22 or more
different namespaces to choose from. Thus one has to scroll in most cases to be
able to see and select.
Why not rearrange the display like, e.g.:
[ ] Main / [ ] Talk
[ ] User / [ ] User talk
...
This would cut the needed lines by half and thus increase usability.
Additionally the close relation between namespace and corresponding talk
namespace would become more obvious for starters too.
