perfect. I was kind of comparing this style and the "simple research" style. I like both. However, I wish someone combine the two. Say, cut out everything but the search box on top, make column narrower like a blog post and then center the column. This design is elegant, nevertheless. Awesome, and I am going to learn some CSS to make my own design.
Almost perfect, but it doesn't align mathematical equations (LaTeX .png images) and other pictures without borders on their own row right. They should be indented as in default style. For example the equation on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann-von_Mangoldt_formula looks quite weird aligned all left.
Hey I was just thinking that it may actually be a downgrade for a lot of people who do many searches at wikipedia a time. I'm referring to the fact that this new version of the style hides the search box by default. I was wondering if there is any way to get the last version of this script back or just edit it so that the search bar is always shown. Thanks a lot!
Needs a "Load as user script" button, so it can be used with GreaseKit under Safari. This is a great style, I used it with Stylish for Firefox, but now I'm trying to move my browsing over to Safari.
I really like the look a LOT. I have noticed a couple of issues, though, that should be addressed. I've placed screen captures into a Flickr set that you can see at http://www.flickr.com/photos/billifer/sets/72157602062333345/. The two issues are that columns of UBXs are not aligning and that lists are not nesting. Otherwise, this is officially the best way to view Wikipedia in the browser! :)
UPDATE: All of the issues I'd noticed have been fixed in version 0.9, and so Grey Lady gets an unequivocal 5 stars. :)
it is a fantastic solution to styling a page with a hell of a lot of options -- the style i was working on had started to contradict itself and become very unwieldy
and the extensive commenting makes it excellent as a base for further tweaks
Thanks. Nicely done. For a subscription site, they have a lot of extraneous graphics. A question though... through this script, are the elements downloaded and then hidden or have they just been blocked from being downloaded?
This is absolutely beautiful! Should replace monobook as the default look!
Edit, another bug: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_2#Voyager_2_in_fiction_and_popular_culture has some overlapping text. You can use "div#contentSub + dl > dd > i" to replace the "h(2,3,4) + dl > dd > i" to fix it.
Elegant indeed. Sober. I've taken the liberty nevertheless to replace "font-size: 125%" by "font-size: 100%" in the only line where it appears (Content), since 125% does seem a bit too wide for my taste. Beautiful work, thanks!
i'm a bit of an advocate of cleaning the web of all the distracting crap that takes up space and you never use, that being said, this style is the perfect way to view WP. Thanks for the hard work (:
