The real problem is user CSS/JS, I suspect. People tend to copy-paste that, and changes to document structure can break a lot of it without any easy way to gauge the extent of the problem or fix it. (For those more familiar with CSS/JS than with MediaWiki, I'm referring to user subpages here, e.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Simetrical/monobook.js. I'm not referring to stuff people have in their browsers, which is of course impossible to track or fix even in principle.) > There's some code adding parameters to the wikilinks, but I find them > ugly.

They really are not the same and should not be treated as such. Treating them the same sounds like a really bad idea to me. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
