Text in new language switcher position notice is justified on frwiki (due to local MediaWiki:Common.css)
Closed, InvalidPublicBUG REPORT

Description

List of steps to reproduce:
Go to https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia

What happens?:
New language notice text (Mediawiki:vector-language-redirect-to-top) is justified, so it creates awful blank spaces.

What should have happened instead?:
The text of the new language notice should not be justified, it should be aligned "flush left".

Hi @Jules78120, thanks for taking the time to report this! This happens because https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css defines text-align: justify; for .messagebox and needs to be brought up and fixed on the local wiki by the local community instead.

Thanks @Aklapper. I tried a fix, which seems to work. You can close this ticket.
