Description

Background

During design review on T315261, @alexhollender_WMF noticed how the footer isn't aligned with the rest of the page on viewports larger than 1000px. Rather than apply horizontal padding to the footer to match .mw-body, it's simpler and more consistent to move the horizontal padding on .mw-body to the page container instead. This is how spacing is handled on lower viewports, and also solves a few problems at once:

Note in this screenshot:

  • The padding on .mw-body means the body content is 24px skinnier than the max width (960px)
  • Related articles isn't aligned with the body content

Proposed:
Screen Shot 2022-09-12 at 3.32.00 PM.png (1×2 px, 202 KB)

AC

  • There is no horizontal padding on .mw-body
  • Footer text and border is always aligned with the header icons
  • Related pages & banners are aligned with the page content (and with the rest of the page on smaller viewports)

Pulling this one into the board as it seems it's closely tied to T315261: [Visual refinement] Improve alignment of icon buttons in header, page content & stickyheader. However, not a blocker for deployment

This task can be done with CSS only. This change will likely involve quite a few visual changes and is riskier for regressions, especially considering how page container styles impact many different elements (TOC, collapsed TOC, and sticky header). It also allows for a good amount of CSS cleanup. POC patch above covers most of the task

@alexhollender_WMF I was wondering, is it also intended to have top and bottom padding on .mw-body? For example .mw-body has a top padding of 8px, meaning the total space between the header and the content is 32px (8px + 24px). Similarly for the total spacing between the footer and content is 74px (24px + 50px)

• alexhollender_WMF added a comment.EditedSep 28 2022, 9:04 PM

@bwang the amount of spacing between the header and the article title currently looks good, though I'm not sure if it needs to be achieved by having padding on .mw-body? I just checked when a banner is enabled, but it seems like the banner has its own padding, so I'm not sure why .mw-body would need padding on the top of bottom.

bwang added a comment.EditedSep 29 2022, 2:58 PM

@alexhollender_WMF Yeah I think the bottom padding is the only one that makes a difference, and its only when there's something on the bottom of the page like related articles or the TOC. For the top padding it doesn't really matter where we put it.

Padding on .mw-body with related articles:

Padding moved to footer with related articles:

I'm thinking it might be worth it to move all the padding off .mw-body due to those cases above, and also for consistency. What do you think?

yea that makes sense to me. And then for the 8px of space we'd be loosing between the header and the article title, we could add that in somewhere else?

@alexhollender_WMF Yep that can be moved to the site notice, which currently applies a 24px top padding via margin collapsing. It's really confusing but that setup is necessary due to inconsistencies with the site notice across wikis.

The new rewrite of RelatedArticles (which is stalled) fixes this issue. I have captured the request in T286835 to make sure we QA it at a later date.
