--- Comment #30 from Timeshifter <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #26 by Erik Moeller) > I agree we need to revisit this, Richard. We'll kick around some options, but > we won't be able to get a new interface out before next week at the earliest. I see that this is being discussed here: *http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/design/2013-July/subject.html I note that in this message http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/design/2013-July/000804.html you agree with Trevor Parscal: "The hover effect is easy to drop - if we are all willing to take the hit on the clutter." I agree with you on this: "If we want experienced users to test it every once in a while, give feedback on how it can be made better, and have them see the improvements, finding a solution that poses the least burden on them will give us the biggest win." It needs to be emphasized that there are many experienced users who edit anonymously (IP edits). They will not be able to go to preferences to choose other options. I think both hover and dropdown will irritate those experienced IP editors. I think the least cluttered longterm solution for them might be an "edit" link for the visual editor, and an icon for the source wikitext editor. -- 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
