Daniel Kinzler <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Daniel Kinzler <[email protected]> 2012-11-02 21:16:03 UTC --- Descriptions are mainly a means of disambiguation. Their purpose is to be shown along with the label to let people know which of the 20 entries called "Berlin" is the one they want. This will happen in popups, drop-down-menus, etc. You need to be able to click the text in order to select the entry. Links would get in the way and/or be meaningless in this context. Using technical terms is not helpful for this purpose either. I think we should keep descriptions as plain text. We could however allow qualifiers for descriptions - so you could associate footnotes etc with it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
