Better styling for news articles #14

Closed Quintus closed 9 years ago

Quintus commented 9 years ago

Hi everyone,

I think the metadata for news articles could be displayed a little different. Just look at an article — you’ll notice:

If you look at a translated article, you’ll also notice that the translator statement is formatted like ordinary text.

I suggest to apply some decent formatting on these statements so they don’t look as if they were part of the main article text. Maybe colourise them, use italics, or something like that, maybe even different styling for the different parts (like italic for authorship/translatorship/date, and sans-serif font for the summary). This will make it more clear which part of the page is actually the main text. Especially the summary is not noticable as a summary, but shows up as if it was the first paragraph of the news.

@Quintus @sydneyjd What do you think of styling of news article at http://webtest.secretchronicles.de/en/news/2015/03/22/results-of-first-general-discussion/ ? I have not styled Finnish articles yet, only English. That webtest.secretchronicles.de domain is not yet at DNS, so you need to add alexandria server IP address to your /etc/hosts file.

@Quintus @sydneyjd Also look at formatting of other English news articles, do you have suggestions for improvements?

@Quintus @sydneyjd Now I have done same modifications also to Finnish version, for example at: http://webtest.secretchronicles.de/fi/news/2015/03/22/results-of-first-general-discussion/
