Bug ID: 63846
Summary: Tooltip on "Article" tab sometimes does not match
tooltip on "Talk" tab depending on namespace
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Web browser: ---
Mobile Platform: ---
On an article in MAIN space, the tooltip when the mouse hovers over the Article
and Talk tabs are, respectively:
View the content page [alt-shift-c]
Discussion about the content page [alt-shift-t]
In TEMPLATE space we have
View the template [alt-shift-c]
Discussion about the content page [alt-shift-t]
In MEDIAWIKI namespace:
View the system message [alt-shift-c]
Discussion about the content page [alt-shift-t]
In USER namespace:
View the system message [alt-shift-c
Discussion about the content page [alt-shift-t]
and so on. Clearly somebody thought it would be a good idea to customize the
tooltip for the Article tab based on namespace but forgot to make the Talk
page's message match.
There are two possible solutions:
1) Make them match or,
2) Do not customize the messages in the first place.
I'm thinking that solution #2 is a good one. If the messages were just:
View the content page [alt-shift-c]
Discussion about the content page [alt-shift-t]
for all namespaces, I don't see any major problem. I think "content" can be
interpreted as meaning more than just *article* content; so the need for the
messages to be different may not exist in the first place. Plus, it's only
clear where the "c" in the keyboard accelerator comes from "content page".
Getting rid of the specialized messages would be an easy way to simplify the
code-base a tiny bit.
