[rgrp]

TODO: create smaller tickets

See also: ​http://trac.ckan.org/ticket/1404 (Post-v1.5 UX improvements) -- probably want to integrate with this and subtickets.

Note: dataset (and resource) view UX improvements are #1450 and #1032

Dataset edit

• See #1744
• Rewrite resource edit process
• Fix display of large datasets (​http://test.ckan.net/dataset/europeana-lod)
• Fix animation glitch in expanding description
• Can we make the list of files look more like a table? Lose space between files? Lose rounded corners?

Dataset Create

• "Upload or link data files, APIs and other materials related to your dataset."
• Include the description markdown editor again (keep it small)
• Licence should maybe be restored
  • "(Don't worry if you don't know what your licence is)"
• Show the log message field
  • Beautify
• Pre-populate the log message field?
• ? Show Home Page field when creating dataset (+ show description (?) (-- but state that it should just be a few lines)
• ? Do some Guerilla UX to see whether we need to Redirect to Resources directly after dataset creation?

Group Improvements

• Minor fixes to dataset add on Group edit form - 0.5d - #1507

User pages

• Improvements to user page UX - 1d - #1396
• Broken links for non-Gravatar use icons - 0.25d - #1719

Etc

• Take before and after screenshots
• Write tests. You may not close this ticket without writing some tests for /editresources!
