User:Isarra/options

Special pages tend to use certain common/similar interface elements for their options. Time to clean/fancy them up a bit, perhaps.


 * Use selects and checkboxes as applicable instead of plain links - should help users for easier scanning of options, especially on watchlists/recentchanges
 * Tab styling similar to special:preferences and meta:Special:CentralNotice for things like the links at the top of the watchlist and education program, and perhaps also use tabs instead of a fieldset for things with only a small number of filters
 * New fieldset styling like in the user preferences
 * Put basic descriptions/information like number of pages showing above/below fieldsets and only include options in the fieldset itself (may only be needed for Special:Watchlist and Special:RecentChangesLinked)
 * Better layout for pagination of list results - currently Showing results... (previous 1,000 | next 1,000) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500)
 * Replace input type="number" for year selections with a normal select - check when the wiki/user/page/whatever was created and just list all the possible years since, perhaps?
