Log in/create account form

Special:Userlogin needs a lot of work. It tries to do three tasks using 1 form, and fails doing any of them well. Too complicated, too much text.

Ideas

  • Split into different forms for log in and create account.

History pages

History pages don't exactly have the clearest interface in the world.

Problems

  • "cur" and "last" are not self-evident, and users have complained about them.
  • Not obvious date links to the revision.
  • Design falls apart when edit summaries wrap.
  • Compare selected versions could probably have a better design.
  • Paging is very poor.

Ideas

  • Use a table format.
