Wikipedia Gets a Fresh New Look

  • I used the language panel a lot, to see what differences are in an article in different languages.Now they shoved it away to the top right, why? Plus it's a searchable box... aaaarrrggghhh.

    Have they used a heatmap or something and made changes based on that or just thought this will be fine?

    The textual structure should change into something easier to digest. In the first paragraph I'd like to see a dead simple answer phrased with common words. There are a lot of articles where they use all kinds of mumbojumbo in order to explain something trivial...

  • Look at that wasted quarter of the screen real estate beneath the TOC. Infuriates me.

  • Felt like a breath of fresh air to me. Design choices that make sense.
