This task involves the work of revising how the desktop {nav Reply} button is styled in languages where the word "reply" is short enough that it can be difficult for people to notice it:
|ja.wiki (desktop)|ar.wiki (desktop)

//Thank you to @Dyolf77_WMF for first spotting this issue.//
=== Requirements
//Meta//
- Platform: **Desktop**
-- //Assumption: the arrows that prefix the {nav Reply} buttons on mobile make it possible for people to locate the affordance despite it containing relatively few characters. [i] //
- Languages:
-- nod: ᨲᩬᨷ
-- zh: 回复
-- ja: 返信
-- yue: 覆
- Per-wiki configuration: wikis ought to be able to decide for themselves whether they would like to enable the revised appearance of the {nav Reply} buttons this task will introduce.
//User experience//
As we currently have arrows on ar.wiki mobile, we can increase the affordance of the "Reply" buttons on desktop by adding them as well.
It seems like the font-weight varies, or optically the body on ja.wiki seems lighter than on ar.wiki – hence the contrast between the boldness of the reply button on ja.wiki is more noticeable than on ar.wiki for instance.
=== Approaches
On scripts with a small number of characters for the word "reply", users will be able to quickly find the button thanks to the "reply" icon in the button.
