Description Srikanth Logic 2012-07-30 19:04:09 UTC
Currently takes a whole new line below topic. Looks bad. Give some UI love.
Comment 1 Arun Ganesh 2012-08-01 08:41:47 UTC
What about this?
Hide the link as a tooltip. I dont see why it should be visible by default.

Comment 2 Nemo 2012-08-14 08:58:25 UTC
Update summary: current situation is quite horrible IMHO, the URL is even before the tagline and nothing explains what it is or why it's there.
Tooltip is not bad but ideally this URL should be along with the export/collection (book), cite and printable version buttons; in the meanwhile, why isn't it just in the toolbox which is currently the only proper solution?
See also <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Collection_Extension_2#Wireframe_Layout_for_placing_the_print_and_Collection_extension_buttons> for a related issue.

Yuvi: As you are the assignee, do you still plan to work on this? 
Any plans to review the patch in comment 4?
Comment 6 Yuvi Panda 2013-11-08 00:29:30 UTC
Don't think I'll have time for it in the near future, sorry.
Comment 7 Andre Klapper 2013-11-08 12:17:25 UTC
Yuvi: Then feel free to reassign to avoid cookielicking :)
Comment 8 Nemo 2013-12-14 07:11:20 UTC
Krinkle just let several useful comments on the patch by Siddhartha Ghai. Siddhartha Ghai or Yuvi, are you going to work on that? If not let's unassign this bug and look for someone to amend the patch. :)
Comment 9 MZMcBride 2013-12-14 16:17:43 UTC
Should this bug report be set to the PATCH_TO_REVIEW status?

I could work on the patch, but as it is probably obvious by now, I am a noob at this. Also, someone who knows where this extension is heading needs to clarify which of those suggestions should be implemented and which should be left out. :)
