Maximum line width

We have introduced a maximum line width to articles. Research has shown that limiting the width of long-form text leads to a more comfortable reading experience, and better retention of the content itself.

  • Our studies with readers showed that readability was an issue with the current interface, in particular being able to focus on the content
  • Pages that are not in a long-text format (such as diffs, special pages, page history) will be presented at full-width as before
  • Logged-in users who wish to read articles at full width are welcomed to set up a script or gadget that will allow for this, such as this one
  • For more details on research and motivation, see ourresearch section
