Description Andrew Garrett 2009-07-28 17:47:01 UTC 
Big old icons, no numbering, nothing like that.

Needs sorting out.
Comment 1 Andrew Garrett 2009-09-18 09:52:28 UTC 
Sticking Parul and Trevor from the usability initiative on CC, so we can get some more input here.
Comment 2 DieBuche 2010-08-05 12:17:45 UTC 
Totally agree. How about replacing them with these: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:DieBuche/Lqt icons?

They are the same style as other vector buttons (taken from GNOME Desktop icons 2.20/Tango).
Additionally the buttons should get {text-decoration:none} to get rid of the weird lines behind the icons
Comment 3 Andrew Garrett 2010-08-28 13:23:24 UTC 
Will be sorted out in the redesign, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LiquidThreads/Redesign
Comment 4 Brandon Harris 2010-09-10 02:17:51 UTC 
Infinite scrolling FTW.
Comment 5 MZMcBride 2010-09-10 20:16:45 UTC 
Re-opening this for now.

Whether or not JavaScript-enabled infinite scrolling is eventually implemented, people not using JavaScript need to have a usable interface. This is a core design principle in MediaWiki development.

I can't really speak to how "usable" the current paging system is, but I can say that there will be a percentage of users who will either intentionally disable all JavaScript when using LiquidThreads or who will intentionally disable the infinite scrolling feature due to the inevitable performance issues that accompany such features. In these cases, the paging interface must be acceptable.
