Hey folks :)
I just uploaded the first drafts for the new user interface design: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:UI_redesign_input It's not finished yet but I wanted to hear what you're thinking about the direction we're going. Please leave any feedback you have on that page so we can keep it all in one place.
Cheers Lydia
Interesting. My first feeling is for references cloning : I had in mind some kind of boxes like the one on the left collumn to collect statements references, that could be drag and dropped or copy paste to statements to add reference to them.

Considering how hard is to please everyone I think it is a good start. The color scheme is much better than the "omg-this-is-so-depressing" grey that we have right now. And the picture plus the boxes look like they have the right size. I'm not so sure about the statements size, but if they can be shown collapsed, ok.
As Thomas I also miss a collection of all references in a box on the right that could be drag and dropped on any item. And some sorting options, like alphabetical, by property number, or some other basic property sorting (metadata properties on top).
The only thing I'm not convinced about is the edition of label/alias statements. Labels/aliases should be edited as statements so we can have more variety and add qualifiers and references to them.

Hi,
Maybe we can have design of language label stuff included natively in this new UI somehow? I realized in my previous GSoC project that it's a more difficult thing to build a good UI design, than to have the language fallback feature itself implemented.

Yes language fallbacks will need to be included. We're not quite at that stage of the design yet.

Can you make a simple mockup of what you have in mind?
And some sorting options, like alphabetical, by property number, or some other basic property sorting (metadata properties on top).

I really don't want us to add this additional complexity at this point. We're trying really hard to make editing friendlier and easier to understand. I think this would go in the opposite direction.
Let's move the discussion to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:UI_redesign_input please.

Not necessarily. It is just the same concept as statements, just in a different section. I have left a mockup on the ui page.

Ok! :-)

Do you think you can do a quick mockup of what you have in mind? Also please let's keep feedback at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:UI_redesign_input. That'll make it much easier to get an overview and reduce duplicate discussions. Thanks :)
Cheers Lydia
Hey Wikidata team,
can you please communicate your design decisions. What did you changed and why?
