I regularly want to use English-language summaries longer than > 255 > ASCII characters. Well don't :) Long summaries would make histories and related pages more difficult to read. Increasing the character count for other scripts doesn't have that issue. Besides which, anyone writing a mini-essay for a summary would be better off summarizing it briefly and putting a detailed explanation on the discussion page. I've seen a lot of edit warring using the summary field as a mechanism for argument, and longer summaries would only encourage that. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
