We use a background-image for the logo instead of an <img> so Facebook can't find it when it scans the pages for images to use when sharing the article. The various points here: - <img> functions differently than a background-image: -- background-image properly clips logos that are too large -- We have existing wiki that are relying on the fact that the logo is a background-image and using site css to change the logo in various special cases like per-namespace - It's possible to fix this in FB using OpenGraph, however og:image overrides the image list so including the logo there will break cases where FB is already finding good images, I'm also not sure people would like the idea of something nearly FB-specific being put into core - Another suggestion is a redundant <img with display:none to hide it from everything else. It's a bit of a messy hack, waiting for other comments and reviews of that. As for 'all other devices' jidanni is pretty much talking only about css-less text based browsers... Normal browsers handle it fine, mobile browsers handle it fine, screen readers can't display images, a good portion of the text browsers I know of don't display images anyways... I only remotely know of one text browser that shows images. I suppose the only category of people here affected are people with bad eyesight that specifically choose to use a text based browser that still displays images. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
