--- Comment #8 from Michael M. <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #5) > [...] I'm not sure people actually want uglier wikitext. My suggestion was to remove <big> completely, not to replace it with (I agree with you) ugly HTML. I can only see to reasons to user bigger font size than usual: * headlines, these should use == ... ==, not <big> * texts in other scripts that are hard to read in normal font size (like Arabic), these should have a lang="..." attribute, handle bidi correctly, etc. Adding some CSS to make them a bit bigger doesn't make things worse (it's inside a template in most cases anyway) This seems to be not only my opinion: en.wikipedia adds a button for <small> to the old toolbar, but not one for <big> [1], the same is true for a gadget on de.wikipedia [2] [1] [[MediaWiki:Common.js/edit.js]] [2] [[de:Wikipedia:Helferlein/Extra-Editbuttons]] -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
