Editing: rows in edit box see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_153#Edit_box_size
Line 101:
The font size for edit box can be set in Wikipedia editing preferences or in the browser. In Firefox there are two font-size settings at <kbd>{{Nowrap|Options → Content → "Default font"}}</kbd> {{Button|Advanced...}}, one for the edit box, and one for the rest of the page. If you just want uniformity, check to see if it allows Wikipedia to choose its own font; then you set Wikipedia's "Edit Area Font Style" to "Serif" or "Sans Serif", and the font size in the edit box will match the rest of the page.
 
The number of rows in the edit box is no longer set in preferences. For a temporary change, when the edit box is displayed, drag up or down the small square in the bottom right corner of the edit box. Alternatively make the change stick by adding this line to your css file (in Preferences, Appearance):
<source lang=css>#wpTextbox1 {height: 25em;}</source>
Wherewhere <code>25em</code> is an example (and typical), depth.
 
Two editing toolbars are offered that will span the top of the edit box. (''[[Wikipedia:Reftoolbar]]'' shows versions.)
