Slomox created this task. Slomox added projects: Wikidata, MediaWiki-HTML-Templating. Restricted Application added a subscriber: Aklapper.
TASK DESCRIPTION Steps to Reproduce: - Go to https://www.wikidata.org/ - Type in the first letters of a stupidly long word like "Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz" into the search box - The Wikidata item for this will appear in the search dropdown and its label and/or description will be truncated with an ellipsis because they overflow the width of the dropdown Result: There is no way to tell the actual full label and description without clicking on the link. This could easily be fixed with giving both label (css class "ui-entityselector-label") and description (css class "ui-entityselector-description") a title attribute so you can see the full title by mouseover. Only a slight improvement but this can save quite some time when you are researching a lot of items. Mouseover titles do not help mobile users, but https://m.wikidata.org/ uses a different search box anyways so that is not a big problem. Nota bene: Wikipedia and other projects do not show this problem. On Wikipedia the search box is wider and titles are set. So this is specifically a problem with the Wikidata search.
