Current issues with Hovercards

  • Text formatting like bold and italics is removed (which isn't nice with painting titles, as shown in the figure below);
  • When removing the text in parenthesis, the script should look out for context; e.g., if the original article reads like "Amy Watson (1980), also known as...", the hovercard will show "Amy Watson , also known as..." (notice the space between the word "Watson" and the first comma).

  • The bold for the article title isn't meant to be removed, but there's a bug when the title ajoins punctuation, phab:T69227. I'm not sure if italics are (or can be) preserved. @Prtksxna: ?
  • That's filed as phab:T69225 ("Space before removed parentheses should also be removed in the extract"). :)

With IE 11 (the only one I've tried so far) the hovercard on a link can be viewed only once. If you hover again it just shows the top of the 'frame'. Previous cards return if you refresh the page but then, again, appear only once.

With IE 11 sometimes the text is overwritten by 'last edited' Not a big problem.

I have noted that when the text has the superscript tag it does not render properly.

On the "factorial" page hover over the "googol" link in the infobox.

It displays the number as '10100;.

Can in cards displays offers to the point (end of sentence)? Sometimes the meaning is lost

@Marazmatic76 the main aspects of that issue are tracked at Phab:T67845. If I understand correctly, the main problems involve the difficulties of variable word-length, variable text-size, and a fixed image size (in both the vertical and horizontal layouts). They are working on it, though.
