Dimensions and coordinates

edit

Rule

edit

All diagrams must be drawn @2x the display article size (which may be significantly larger than the thumbnail size)

Rationale

edit

Makes it easier for users to view the image at full size, and ties the image to its intended use.

Rule

edit

Units of px are always used

Rationale

edit

All images are eventually rendered to pixels, working natively in this unit prevents pixel-splitting and other degradations in quality during rasterization.

Rule

edit

Page edge length must be a multiple of 80 px

Rationale

edit

Makes it easier for users to add the images to Wikipedia articles.

Rule

edit

All rigid objects (including text) must be bound to a coordinate which is an integer multiple of 8

Rationale

edit
  • Works well with Retina devices, as it allows easy scaling by factors of 2 and 1.5
  • Helps preserve floating point precision since coordinates can be scaled loss-lessly by eighths
  • Produces eight natural levels of “zoom”—12.5%, 25%, 37.5%, 50%, 62.5%, 75%, 87.5%, 100%. All of them can be scaled up and down by a factor of two (except the 12.5% level when going down). Four of these levels can be scaled up by a factor of 1.5 (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%).

Annotation lines

edit

Rule

edit

Thin annotation lines should be 0.5 px wide, white or black.
