(bug 14645) Show expensive special pages differently in miser mode on Special:SpecialPages. Patch by Jarry1250 with a few tweaks by me. Tested, saw no errors or warnings. Comment: Agree that Wikimedia wikis should definitely have this styling, but I think it is *also* useful when a page is 29 days out of date. Even if it is only 24 hours out of date, it is hugely disconcerting to be presented with a list that doesn't change when you fix items on it. Emphasis being placed upon that is entirely appropriate IMHO when it comes to finding the correct special page for you. It's like bolding: you want the more useful pages to achieve greater visual status for the user. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
