[WikiEN-l] MediaWiki formatting for wide browsers

[Steve Bennett]

Hi all,
  Just wondering whether anyone has considered the way MediaWiki
renders when the browser is particularly wide. Many blogs fix a
maximum column width, because it gets increasingly harder to read as
the line length increases.

Perhaps MediaWiki could do something like this, and use the extra
space that would be left to solve its infobox crisis. In fact, many
layout issues would be completely solved by having a column purely
dedicated to text, with no possible interference from images, tables,
contents etc. If the browser is narrow, then it could condense to
something like its current format.

Any thoughts? Someone want to do a mock-up?
