Ever think Drupal is hard to use? The task is to find out where, and to improve it. The task is to find two (2) pages with bad usability, and suggest two ways to improve them.

The steps are as follows:

* Install Drupal
* Play around a bit
* Find two pages that are hard to use
* Consult the primary contact on whether they are "the way Drupal works" or actual usability problems
* Repeat until you have two
* Suggest and mock up ways to improve both of those pages

The final deliverable will be an annotated screenshot and/or mockup in the form of the "Sample mockup" listed below, along with suggested improvements, posted to and reviewed by a member of the Drupal Usability group.

* Sample mockup: http://drupal.org/files/issues/3-term-form.png

Estimated time:

2-4 days

    Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

    We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

    Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

    Thanks!
