These changes are opposing my goal of making it thoroughly uncomfortable to read the site and for pushing users to gravitate towards GitHub.com though for full fidelity, functionality, and pleasant reading. I do not want them to read the content at all on the service as it may omit important information or render incorrectly. Your wiki page renders fine, but I can't guarantee this for the 400,000 other wikis out there. I found a few issues of people reporting broken images on the wiki but it was actually broken in the service. The stickied headers and footers are designed to reduce space for reading. "Don't get comfortable, please leave for GitHub". If you are concerned about the design of your content for your project, I would suggest moving off GitHub wikis and towards GitHub Pages for full control over the design. Not only that, it'll probably rank a lot higher on search engines. I also try to leave the URL in there. If they don't trust the URL link or button, that's fine, at least they can copy and paste it or navigate it on their own accord. A button hides that information and I think that is sketchy on a purposefully sketchy-looking site already. They can use the page, even if they don't click anything. Also, any modernization of the site design makes it look official, and I really do not want it to look official or affiliated with GitHub in any way. Changing the button to look more like GitHub is an wrong direction if trying to not look official. It needed to be more obvious. |

First, i was so surprised when i see that my Wiki was exist on Google Search.
But when i open it, i also surprised that the UI seems like a some website toys. (i know your preferences)
So i already make the brand new style enhancements, hope you like it!
The reasons why the UI was important,
For example, i using my own wiki post to experiment with the style.
You can compare with your own UI website with my UI enhancements. Please give me some review!
