Summary

Since some people might want to copy this styleset in lieu of Vector 2022's introduction to Wikivoyage, these are the changes that this styleset makes, summarised:

• Reducing whitespace.
  • Suppressing site notices, which even without an active site notice, takes up 24px.
  • Compacting the footer by reducing its padding and moving the footer icons to a position relative to the bottom right corner.

• Balancing the sidebars.
  • Making the page title / page title placeholder a consistent height.
  • Reducing top margins to 0.5rem (8px).
  • Making line height (spacing between lines) 0.85rem (13.6px).

• Improving legibility and removing clutter
  • Side bar headings have been made bold.
  • Removing "Switch to old look" button.
  • Removing "Rendered with Parsoid" icon.
  • Removing file upload (usage discouraged) and RealTime Recent Changes (superseded) from the tools-bar.
  • Slight reconfiguration of TOCs on pages using Discussion Tools.

• Applying branding and colour
  • TOC arrows have been switched with a blue compass arrow as featured in the site logo.
  • Watchlist star is displayed in gold.
  • Log out button in the user menu in bold, red.
  • Interlanguage selector in light blue.
