Hi @JGirault - I'd like the "Search" label to be localized if that's possible. That way, we can keep the larger box as we did in the A/B/C test (as shown in the image below).

I'd say we localize the 'search' button or don't show the word 'search' at all.

That being said, since we're were planning on A/B testing the 'ghost text' feature T124427
which would place the word 'search' in the text box, I don't think it's necessary to add the same word
right beside it on the button.

@JGirault Your right that some of @MSyed's mockups on T112171 do feature a button with the word 'search'
but I think we should do one or the other, not both (ghost-text or button).

One obstacle to consider if we do want to localize the button, is that we'd have to support a variable-width button
to accomadate all the languages (the image below is a little extreme, but who knows).

(Never mind the actual task of finding an appropriate implementation for localization, as discussed here T121843 )

Hi @Jdrewniak - great comments!

Let's keep the localized "Search" button as is for right now. Once we get the test done for the ghost text, and if all is well, we can drop the search in the button (make the button smaller) and use the localized language ghost text in the actual search box.

We'll have to try out the localized language ghost text to get a nice text box width to fit the longest translation. :)

We'll use these images for the search box (magnifying glass)... Thanks, @MSyed!

Actually look at the card here to get the right icon images. Thanks @Jdrewniak!

added https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126392 to be sure the magnifying glass is not pixelated.
