Typography refresh/gl

Obxectivos
Type é un elemento visual núcleo da linguaxe de Wikipedia. O (opt in) actualización tipografía está baseado nesas necesidades -

Readability: Os tipos de carácteres deben ser lexibles e de fácil lectura en tódolos tamaños. Type como un elemento debe axudar a diferenciar interface do contido do artigo.

Accessibility: A dislexia e a deficiencia visual non deben dificultar o camiño de acceso. Debemos permitir o acceso a usuarios con dificultades

Availability: Tódolos tipos de letra que se usan xa deben estar dispoñibles ou accesos. Tódalas seleccións deben funcionar ben a través de dispositivos e plataformas (OS X, Windows, Linux, Plataformas Móbiles)

Consistency: A experiencia visual consistente en escritorio e móbil.

Trocos clave
TLDR: Entre as principais modificacións, como parte deste incluirá: serif para títulos, sans serif para copia de corpo e redución marxinal do tamaño do tipo en elementos de navegación.

Headings font-family: Georgia, serif; Serif headings have been tested on Wikipedia mobile and have received a positive response.[clarification needed] With applying these changes to desktop, we are aiming for consistency between desktop and mobile styles.

--

Body copy font-family: "Helvetica Neue", "Helvetica", "Nimbus Sans L", "Arial", "Liberation Sans", sans-serif; While Georgia and Helvetica are fonts optimized for the web, we can see that body gracefully degrades to Arial because it is freely available on nearly every computer and operating system while being a screen-friendly typeface. After that, there is a free font, Liberation Sans, and finally a fallback that is always available, sans-serif. This selection may change as other typefaces develop ubiquity. For the near future, Arial will continue to serve as WMF's fallback. On Linux-based operating systems, Nimbus Sans L & Liberation Sans will be specified as the san-serif fonts. Note that free systems may also substitute other free fonts for proprietary ones mentioned earlier in the stack.

--

Reduced type size for navigational elements: Type size for navigation elements in the sidebar are reduced by 0.1–0.3 em to help them fade to the background in comparison to the article which is the foreground. Since the navigation areas are distinct, we expect that changes in the size will not hamper clicking on the links.
