Talk:Universal Language Selector/WebFonts

FYI: when using the mediawiki editor, if one goes into settings (by clicking the keyboard in the lower right corner of the editing window and then the gear… Display … Fonts) one sees this: "::Font settings
 * Download fonts when needed Download missing fonts automatically and allow selection of preferred fonts. More information"

That is, it links here. I find that the information on this page doesn't help me understand the pros and cons of changing this setting. I would guess that there's a reason it's currently turned off by default (I'm guessing my setting is the default setting) but can find no reason here. It would be helpful if it linked to information (whether here or not) that helped viewers who aren't web font experts nevertheless make a relatively informed decision.--Elvey (talk) 18:30, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
 * You can safely enable the preference. If the site feels slower for you (because of the additional loaded fonts), you may want to disable it. Ah, sorry, forgot one thing: do not enable it if you're uncomfortable with some (or potentially all) pages you read being logged (on a WMF server to which about 70 WMF employees have access). --Nemo 22:58, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
