MZMcBride's email about emails reminded me that
every automated email
from Wikimedia servers looks like a bunch of programming code.
The first idea was that it would be better to have some better formatted
emails with some more information (for example, I would like to see diff
inside of my email when I get notification about changing my talk page).
But, then I've realized that we don't have a designer. By "designer" I
mean a person who is employed by WMF and who is constantly working on
improving MediaWiki look and feel.
While a lot of us may be completely fine with reading Wikipedia articles
through links, there are people who care about look and feel.
Indeed. As the rest of the web gets prettier and prettier, MediaWiki risks
starting to look like an ugly duckling...
