Topic on Talk:Wikimedia Apps

Hi,

the mobile app (both android and iOS) automatically shows a Picture / Logo as a Header-Image of Articles, if there is one at Wikidata.

Unfortunately with logos, this doesn't look very good, as the app zooms in and therefore crops some parts of the logo (see Screenshot – tested with the german article HateAid with this wikidata-item.

On mobile (or pc) browsers the logo is just shown at the infobox, as it is intended – and with correct dimensions. If an article's wikidata item has no logo/picture, the app doesn't show a header-image, which in the case of my screenshot would look better.

Do you have an idea on how to fix this (except from removing the logo from wikidata, which would remove the header-image completely)? Is there a setting that makes the app not zoom-in?

Thanks for your feedback, @Johannnes89. We'll get back to you.

The developers are currently discussing this. We'll see what comes out of it.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, the images don't actually come from Wikidata but are selected by the PageImages extension. This makes it more difficult to handle, but we might find some workaround, i.e. "SVG of a certain size" or something like that.

Ahh thanks for clarifying!
