We've known for well over a year now that this is
a problem. I would
like to finally fix it. Specifically, I intend to remove the
editsection float style, so it's at the beginning of the section line,
to the left. The alternative is to have it as the German Wikipedia
does, with the section edit link on the right of the header; however,
this a) is kind of annoying as the link jumps around, and b) requires
a change to the document structure (admittedly just a reordering of
elements, but it may well break some fragile stuff regardless). It
does arguably look better, though, and that could be done instead
(opinions?). A comparison of the three styles is available at
<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Simetrical/Edit_links_comparison>.
I came late to this, but I really *do* prefer link to right over link
to left. I think that the esthetics of not indenting the header are
more important than the fact that the link will "jump around".
It doesn't, actually, jump around. It's always at the right end of the
header.
