Bug #: 40482
Summary: Draft selection integration needs UX rework
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: blocker
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Drafts
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
The current draft selection is ugly. It redundantly repeats the page name,
displays the time in a user-unfriendly format, exposes more information than
necessary immediately, does not use AJAX to replace the text-area content, uses
a different user experience for preview mode, and does not indicate save status
dynamically when a save action is performed (manually or automatically). Some
of these issues are tracked separately, but the entire draft manager needs a
rework and there does not appear to be a bug for that.
Showing save status of the most recent draft right next to the "Save" button,
having a selector for additional older drafts, using readable time information
("3 minutes ago") and using AJAX for all interactions with the draft selector
seems preferable.
IMO this is blocker-level before enabling the extension on any Wikimedia wikis.
