            Bug ID: 55995
           Summary: Rising devanagari diacritics cut off in Lohit
                    Devanagari font on Special:Notifications
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Echo
          Assignee: [email protected]

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

System Environment:
Windows 7 X64 SP1
Google Chrome 30.0.1599.101 m

Steps:
On https://www.mediawiki.org set the interface language to hindi (hi) with the
ULS webfont enabled (there's only one font for hindi, Lohit Devanagari)
Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Notifications

Problem:
The rising diacritics in the text of the notification (html element div
class="mw-echo-title" ) get cut off due to the line height being explicitly
set. The problem does not arise for my system font (Mangal, proprietary Windows
font).

The problem is fixed if the css rule .mw-echo-title {line-height: 14px;} is
changed to 17px. It is possible that the problem may appear for other fonts of
the Lohit font-family which are being used for other indic languages. Similar
previous bugs: Bug 30809 and Bug 29405 which were solved using
language-specific css styling, which may possibly be used for this too.

(Please let me know if a screenshot is needed)
