Description Chris McKenna 2013-08-09 12:14:09 UTC
When the list of potential articles is longer than the displayed list there is no way to see other articles without continuing to type part of the name. In some cases this isn't going to be much of a problem, but when there are lots of items that could have the same title (e.g. [[Nexus]]) it essentially requires you to know which disambiguator is used, defeating the point of the suggestions list.
Comment 1 James Forrester 2014-03-01 00:12:12 UTC
I believe that this was fixed in the scrollable-update in October. Sorry for the slow triage.
Comment 2 This, that and the other (TTO) 2014-03-01 00:32:51 UTC
James, did you mean to reopen this four seconds after closing it?
Comment 3 James Forrester 2014-03-01 00:51:45 UTC
No, it was in error. Sorry!
