Most of the MediaWiki chrome doesn't really apply to most pages. :-) But it's still consistent and expected across the site. I understand and appreciate that api.php is a different entry point than index.php, of course. Caching reasons is pretty vague. That isn't something we can overcome? I can't imagine requests to the help module are overwhelming on most wikis. In my view, the previous help page looked distinct enough (with a monospace font) that it didn't often come up that the site nav all disappears. Now that the page looks more put together (polished), the missing wrapper gives it page, at least slightly, the appearance of being broken (that is, missing its skin). Compare with <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_plastic_surgery?action=render>. It also seems hasty to close this bug so quickly, but whatever. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
