What don't you like about the new layout? I find it to be a really well-done change that helps to modernize the page without getting rid of its classic text-first approach. In fact, other than moving the table of contents to the side, I really don't see any major differences.<p>Also, if you don't like the new layout, you can get the old one back. If you create an account, and go to preferences -> appearance, you can change back to the old "Vector Legacy (2010)" layout [1]<p>[1]: <a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/866617/how-to-get-the-old-wikipedia-layout-back/" rel="nofollow">https://www.howtogeek.com/866617/how-to-get-the-old-wikipedi...</a>
I don't understand why they pushed the table of contents like it was super important. Are there really people who need to have it all the time under their nose? Generally I just read it once to find the specific information I'm looking for, and that's it. On the other hand, I use language links a lot, and now I have to make an additional click to find them, that's just annoying.<p>Eventually I just installed extensions on my browsers to get rid of the problem (<a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/revert-wikipedia-layout/jpnfgjjnmghhkgffigedilglfkpcjlda" rel="nofollow">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/revert-wikipedia-l...</a> <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classic-wikipedia/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classic-wikip...</a> if aynone is looking for a solution). It's less inconvenient than creating an account, but it is dicey and I wish wikimedia offered a more convenient solution.
