Background
As part of the efforts under T388685, we would like UX to explore and propose visual changes to the edit summary component. Our goal is to improve the usability and clarity of the edit summary field for contributors by proposing design refinements. These can include the use of icons as enhancements.
Scope: skins Minerva/2022
Acceptance Criteria
- Design proposal(s) shared for review (Figma)
- Feedback from stakeholders incorporated - Engineers & Product
- Ready for potential handoff to Engineers
Checklist
- Evaluate current design of the edit summary field (on desktop and mobile, if applicable)
- Identify UX issues or pain points (e.g. discoverability, readability, feedback on character limits, etc.)
- Propose wireframes or mockups for possible improvements
- Consider accessibility and internationalization constraints - e.g. are there icons that might mean something radically different in different places?
- Align design direction with the goals of T388685
- Check for the mobile version
- Accessibility: colours/icons for visually-impaired needs to be thought of - Dark Mode impact? (the colors in Codex should be applicable for both dark and light mode)
- Non-JavaScript preference; would this impact icons/new design elements?
- Backup / alternative plan: can we expand the Filters with our own custom-ones for Wikidata?
- Make Codex proposals
