Topic on Talk:Universal Language Selector/Compact Language Links

It makes it more difficult to compare the names of entries in different languages - instead of just putting the cursor over the languages for comparison.

The tool was mainly focused on facilitating the navigation across the set of languages users speak.

The listing of language links in Wikidata may be a good place for viewing the name of a topic in all languages.

Having more details on the specific usecase, would be helpful to understand how to better support it. Are you interested in looking the name of the article on a given language (to get the translation)? Comparing the lengths of the titles in different languages? Verifying they meet some rules?

thanks

This is a very BAD idea. I want to see ALL the languages for which a version of the article exists. If some issue pops up involving, say, Thailand, I want to see the Thai language version of it, even if I do not know Thai and have never clicked on it before. I may want to see a translation of the Thai article (per Google translate), just to see what they are saying.
