Consider changing use of 'Up' as a navigation link in books

Created on 26 March 2012, over 12 years ago

Updated 4 September 2024, 3 months ago

in books navigation (navi under the body text), I am suggesting another word than "up".
In IT-language and Drupal-Speak, "up" in this context means "up one level in book's chapter hierarchy".

But for normal users, this is not obvious. "up" from their experience normally means "scroll to top".

I am suggesting a change here although I don't know a better more descriptive word right away.

Maybe, "Chapter Index", or "Chapter Overview", "back to index"... - any ideas?

My goal is to be as end-user friendly with any navigation, as possible.
That is why I am rising this subject.

Needs usability review
Used to alert the usability topic maintainer(s) that an issue significantly affects (or has the potential to affect) the usability of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. When adding this tag, make it easy to review the issue. Make sure the issue summary describes the problem and the proposed solution. Screenshots usually help a lot! To get sign-off on issues with the "Needs usability review" tag, post about them in the #ux channel on Drupal Slack, and/or attend a UX meeting to demo the patch and get direct feedback from designers/UX folks/product management on next steps. If an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the general "user experience" of Drupal, use Needs product manager review instead. See the scope of responsibilities for product managers.

With little no movement going to say this is outdated since being removed from core. If anyone strongly disagrees please reopen.
