Hi,
I've create a wiki for the Brazilian Fedora Community, and I tried to do something similar with the fedoraproject.org official wiki. Indeed ithe result looks like the fp.o wiki, but I made (IMO) some improvements to the CSS set. They are located in:
common - http://projetofedora.org/wikidata/fedora/css/common.css screen - http://projetofedora.org//wikidata/fedora/css/screen.css print http://projetofedora.org//wikidata/fedora/css/print.css projection - http://projetofedora.org//wikidata/fedora/css/projection.css
Our current wiki (to see some preview) is located in:
http://projetofedora.org/wiki/ or http://projetofedora.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi
Maybe if you like it, it can be used in fp.o too. Some main notes about the modifications:
- Paragraph (<p>) margins: they are too short in current theme. I added some space between them.
- Unordered list (<ul>): added some indentation to get visually nicer.
- Heading titles <h1,h2,h3,...>: Heading and sub-headings currently are always one-sized in font, and no indentation. This sometimes confuses the page's organization on Topics and Sub-Topics. I added font-size (parent headings means larger fonts) and indentation. The result IMO is nicer. Look at these examples (ignore the strange portuguese language):
* http://projetofedora.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Documentacao * http://projetofedora.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/ObtenhaAjuda/RegrasConduta
Note: I made a new <h1> style for the main heading (usually the page's title), you can ignore this if you don't like.
- I also did some more css classes to tip admonitions and table of contents. (optional)
- The TableOfContents macro was modified to reflect the new table of contents' css class, giving a default look to all pages without having to do "complicated" styling in wiki raw pages (as in /wiki/FAQ). (optional)
Hope you like it. Any feedback is really appreciated.
Cheers,

I believe all of these modifications are good and make the content of the wiki more readable.
What's the best way to suggest such modifications? I might do some similar work to improve the usability of the wiki since I have some experience on this.

The best way would discuss these modifications here on the websites list. Then the websites team can read the suggestions and if everybody agrees, make the modifications on current theme.
I think you can grab the css files, modify and experiment, then post the results here on the list (I did that). Feedback is always important.

Hugo...
Nice improvements. I really like the Paragraph and List modifications.
I'd like to make a few suggestions for the Table of Content changes. 1) Make the height of the blue area (Title area) a bit bigger, like how it looks now in fp.o and make it gradient out to white on the left. 2) Add some padding/margin spacing to the bottom of the list so that the last item doesn't sit right on the bottom of the box.
Lastly...the Heading Titles...not so much a big fan of that...they're a bit big and clunky.
I'd take the top three modifications. Diana

I don't know exactly how to do this, but I will try :)

Good.
Lastly...the Heading Titles...not so much a big fan of that...they're a bit big and clunky.
But do you agree that it's good to do different font-sizes for each h1, h2, h3, and so on? This is easily adjustable. And the left-margin (indentation) on sub-headings?

Yes, I do think that different font-sizes and indentations are useful. I just wasn't sure what sizes they should be. Logically to have different font sizes, the larger one should be much larger and I didn't like how the large one looked. I did see a few pages where they use the blue as the section header and then a bold black as the sub-headings, which I think worked pretty well. Another note...for the indented sub-headers, it's probably best to get rid of the underline or use something else (dotted lines maybe?)
These are just suggestions. Thanks, Diana

Websites team, what are the chances to we get this implemented?

What happened? Is this idea ignored, forgotten or not useful? :-) (See the "New CSS set for wiki" thread).
