Description Ryan Scheel 2011-08-20 22:41:57 UTC
In Special:MovePage, there are two textual inputs, wpNewTitle, an input for the page to be moved to, and wpReason, a textarea for the reason of the change.

I have found that functionally, the length of 40 characters for this inputbox is too small for many of the pagemoves I do, and that extending it to the same length as the textarea (60 cols/chars) would make it possible to see the entire title at once.

As such, I file this bug.
Comment 1 Bawolff (Brian Wolff) 2011-11-08 12:24:43 UTC
Note the comments at bug 13627 - there's some concern that making them the same size will cause confusion. (although at the very least, 60 or 80 characters seems like a more sensible number)
Comment 2 Rob Moen 2011-11-09 22:12:01 UTC
Made wpNewTitle 60 characters wide.  Fixed in trunk.  r102583
