Page Previews

The Hovercards beta feature provides the casual reader with a streamlined browsing experience. Whenever a reader hovers over a link to another article, a short summary of the subject, including its graphical image, is provided to them so they can decide whether they need to visit that subject more fully before continuing the current subject.

Key changes
Restyling it to enable easy reading. Currently the type size is small and the margins are tight.
 * Create a consistent visual style with the article type treatment.
 * Emphasize the lead images, so a user gets an idea of a term using both text and image.
 * The action set in the gadget feels out of context, hence we need to validate which of those actions are useful for readers and editors.
 * Include the last edited timestamp that we have tested on wikipedia mobile web, but de-emphasize it.

Priorities

 * Article titles
 * References
 * Wiktionary
 * User names

Open questions

 * Should there be any actions in the popups?
 * If so, what?
 * Ideal timings for show and hide?
 * How precise do we need to be about these timings?
 * What if any animation/effects are used during transitions?
 * How does this integrate (or not) with the existing navigation popups and reference tooltips?

Analytics and instrumentation

 * Number of displays of the popup
 * Links followed while popup is displayed vs after popup dismissal
 * Links followed within popups

Code
The code lives in a git repo here and on gerrit too. See the Popups "dashboard" in Gerrit for patches in development.
