Project Name: SisterSearch
Purpose: For development, we need a vanilla MediaWiki instance with a development and debugging environment to minimize platform issues
Wikitech username of requestor: Gryllida
Brief description: Interface to expose inter-project search results on every page, to improve UX, cross-wiki reader and editor engagement. See sketches below.
Special:Search Proposed:
+---------+ +-------+ +-------+ +------------+ <-- NEW tabs for project selection | Encyclo | | Books | | Media | | Dictionary | Tabs would be greyed or coloured if the current page title exists on the sister project. | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^+ | Type search query here .... | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Wiki page Proposed:
"Foo" * * talk prefs watchlist logout +---------+ +------+ +------+ +---------+ | Read | | Talk | | Edit | | History | [\/] [ Type search query here... ] | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | DOG ^-- NEW Dropdown for project selection | Possibly 75% transparency clickable sister project | Dog is an animal ... favicon hovering below search box if page title exists. | ..........................................................
Or we could try a merged configuration - move search box to the top for both wiki page and special search:
+---------+ +------+ +-------+ +------------+ <-- NEW tabs for project selection | Encyclo | | News | | Media | | Dictionary | Tabs would be greyed or coloured if the current page title exists on the sister project. | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^+ | Type search query here .... | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---------+ +------+ +------+ +---------+ | Read | | Talk | | Edit | | History | "Foo" * * [\/] <-- (Dropdown for talk/prefs/watchlist/logout) | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | DOG | | Dog is an animal ... | ..............................................................................
