Wikifunctions talk:Design/About widget improvements

This looks like a better approach. I wonder whether it would be possible to give greater visibility to the underlying content when a language is collapsed within the accordion? When there is a label in a given language, it looks as though it will not be obvious that there is no description or if an input lacks a label.

Instead of simply expanding or collapsing the content for a given language, might it be possible for multiple languages to be selected and compared for completeness? If the contributor’s intent is to supply a description (for example) it would be convenient to review descriptions that are available in selected languages.

Another thing we might consider is a feedback mechanism for existing content. For example, it was many weeks before I changed the English label of join two strings (Z10000) to “join two strings”. Whether that is considered an improvement is an open question but most other langages still follow the original label. The situation may be considerably more complex for descriptions, where a useful correction or clarification may occur in any language, with no visibility. (What we need, of course, is abstract content. It would be useful to explore developing that in this restricted domain, but perhaps not in this iteration.)

Will it be possible to edit in two (or more) languages simultaneously? Can the “helper text” langage be selected? GrounderUK (talk) 09:33, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
