Contextualize the lead image #1902

Closed Daniel-Mietchen closed 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Example from https://scholia.toolforge.org/taxon/Q752130: Screenshot from 2022-03-08 23-51-08

The image is there and links to its page on Commons, but it is not contextualized.

Describe the solution you'd like

There are various possible improvements. For instance, we could have a tooltip on mouseover, we could make use of media legend (P2096), we could surface the alt text more prominently and/ or we could frame the image.

Describe alternatives you've considered

See above.

Additional context

We could perhaps use images as more actively in guiding Scholia users. The mussle image from the example above, for instance, is used on a variety of pages across multiple wikis, and we could try to show/ link to information related to the corresponding items. Besides the item about the mussle itself, that image would thus also lead the user to explore

The alt text is present, but does not appear in Firefox, for instance. At least that is what I can check. A text that appear when the most hoovers over the image should be implemented in Javascript is seems.

Hi @Daniel-Mietchen . I've successfully implemented it and tested it locally. Now a text is displayed whenever we hover the mouse on an image. (contextualized the lead image). I've raised a pull request, Please review and merge the changes. Thank you so much.
