Special:Preferences pretty unreadable
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Screen shot of uggly word wraps redering "preferences" pretty unreadable now.

After som changes, the initial preferences subpage became
pretty unreadable due to adjustments causing lots of word
wraps in a columns which were previously not there.

There is imho no need to mimick an input form where acually
there are several data of only informative nature which can,
and should, be presented in normal sentences with some figures
inserted, rather than in a "prompt, colon, value" manner, which
is both hard to read and hard to translate. The "registered at
date at time" (or at time at date) is even completely
intranslatable now, unless date and time are separated.

Inserting   into the pseudo "prompt" strings does
not help against ugly word wrapping.   are rendered
verbatim.

Garbled preferences screen

The garbage-layout of the preferences screen has become even worse, meanwhile.

To a normal man, who does not know how to guess invisible table cells, this is simply unreadable.

Current code & localizations seem fine.
