Description

We currently use the desktop HTML for the mobile version of the contributions page.
We should consider updating the Minerva contributions page with some of the good ideas in the previous design. These are:

  • Group by date
  • Show bytes and time to the left for better visual scanning
  • Larger touch areas for links
  • Display of user icon for better recognition about what the page is about.

DEVELOPER NOTES

Styling should occur via a skinStyle defined on the mediawiki.pager.styles module.

There is a problem on Special:Contributions with the invisible ‎ code. It pushes the title down further than it should. I will create a bug, but a patch exists with some discussion.

There is another approve to display a table - T121389

Jdlrobson added a comment.Oct 22 2021, 4:25 PM

The goal here is to make the page flexible enough to support skins presenting it as they wish. Vector could present this as a table if necessary. This work should help T121389 if anything :)

I should note tables don't map well to the mobile medium without removing information so I'm not sure a table display makes sense unless its desktop resolution only.

@Volker_E - for now, the "after" is expected to be the same as the AMC version. We can make some smaller design changes later on to make sure the page is ready for a wider audience, but not as a part of this task - I'll clarify in the task description
