Summary: zh.wikipedia.org unusable for text browser user due to massive vocabulary lists Product: Wikimedia Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/rose...@home OS/Version: All Status: NEW Keywords: accessibility, i18n Severity: enhancement Priority: Normal Component: Language setup AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: jida...@jidanni.org I notice articles on zh.wikipedia.org are now twice their size (in lines, in one's browser's View Source), due to many lines of <li><b><span class="lanLabel"> (for showing the differences between zh vocabulary items.) This is all well and good, as they are tucked neatly in a <div class="NavFrame collapsed noprint nohandheld"... However, for text browser users, (simulate with Firefox: View>Page Style>No style) zh.wikipedia.org has now become barely usable, as those hundreds of lines of vocabulary items get rendered, right at the top of an article too. As one reads in http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:中文维基百科的繁简处理 there are preferences to control aspects of variant conversion. However there is no preference to turn off sending the vocabulary list to the user's browser. There should be. So one could: * stop doubling of article size, even if one is not a text browser user. * On text browsers, be able to read zh.wikipedia.org again, without needing to scroll down many screens to get past the vocabulary list, to finally arrive were the original article text now is. P.S., on e.g., http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/rose...@home each line of ><li id="_note-64"><b><a href="#_ref-64">^</a></b> <span style="font-family: >sans-serif; wastefully repeats the style details too, not using a style definition. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
