Forum:CT Archive/A New Look for Era Tabs

On May 17, 2014, Wookieepedia officially implemented the era tabs system into articles. These are the familiar Canon/Legends tabs you see on many pages to help users distinguish and navigate between subjects appearing in both continuities.

Having stared at these tabs now for nearly half a decade, several users over the years have expressed their desire for a little different look to them. To paraphrase some conversations I've had with people, I've heard users describe the design as wonky, outdated, and tacky. So I think the time has come to streamline their look a little bit.

I hereby propose to you the following look:

What we've done here is end the horizontal line at the Legends tab (it no longer stretches horizontally across the entire top of the page) and also make it a little bit thinner. The specific edits can be found here and here, and this change is currently live on the wiki on a temporary basis for demonstration purposes.

While this is by no means a major change, I believe this helps make it look a little bit more cleaner and sharper. Certainly, any additional changes we might want to see made to the tab design can be explored in future discussions, but I think this is at least a nice first step.

Should this proposal pass, this temporary design change to the tabs will go into full effect. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 21:29, February 12, 2019 (UTC)
