References take up more space with new print styles than existing print style
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

Problem

after applying new print styles to wikipedia articles with large reference sections, the number of pages are increasing.

Reducing the number of pages is one of our goals for new print styles.

Solution

  1. Reduce paddings between references UL

Spec

current

.vector-experimental-print-styles ol li, .vector-experimental-print-styles ul li {
padding: 5px 0px;

}

change it to

.vector-experimental-print-styles ol li, .vector-experimental-print-styles ul li {
padding: 2px 0px;

}

affects the estimate, right?

It should

It is saying the room no longer exists 😕 It seems like a 0.5 or 1 at much.

Boo! I'm going to be bold

patch submitted. @Nirzar you do realise this changes ALL lists right? Not just references.. the phabricator title is a little misleading about this.

@Jdlrobson, @Nirzar - we should probably add some QA cases for this regarding to lists as well as references.

If it's difficult to figure out what references are, we can do this for all lists

I'm skipping QA as I believe there is a QA task for all the print styles.

Per https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172144#3510402 we should ensure that those QA cases are updated before signing off!
