people mostly agree that we need to associate article-related actions (e.g., edit, watch, upload) closely with articles somehow
I made some mockups to try some ideas about reducing chrome, location for article-related actions, and different navigation schemas. I share just in case they bring any useful idea.
Thanks so much, Pau! Really useful to be able to reference mockups :)
I like the right-most design in the bottom row. The problem with including the article title in the chrome is that many titles are incredibly long (lists, for example), and it looks pretty bad when they take up multiple lines and push the chrome down too much. Same thing comes into play with respect to article actions to the right of the title. We can't predict how long the title will be, so there will be times when it overlaps with whatever we put in that space.
