Description

MultimediaViewer displays both the on-article caption and the description from Wikimedia Commons.

fr.wp users feel the difference between the two is not clearly made ; which in the end might result in users not reading it anymore.

Current suggestions are:
*Display the local caption in a bigger font;
*Display a label like “Text caption:” before

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
