This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |

Squashed text on the right.

Squashed text on the left.
-
This box hasn't been scrolled to the right - this is how the section appears when loaded. Amusingly, it is impossible to scroll to the left, making this section of the article essentially unreadable on mobile.
-
A poorly performing nested list. The indifferent attitude from editors after being alerted to this issue speaks volumes.
-
A hideous piece of UI.
