Comment (by robyduck):

 Yes fedora.css has this in the ''html, body'' instructions and this file
 is used also by the other sites. Additionally to this the single websites
 have other css files, which are related to the fedora.css main file. If
 you look deeper at the fedora.css file you will find a lot of font-size
 overridings too.

 I'm saying this because fixing this 76% size is not so easy as it seems,
 though. I guess in all these years people added or changed css classes
 here and there, specifying also font-sizes to override it.[[br]]
 If we want to change this value (is there a new recommended minimum basic
 font size later than 2005?) we need to rewrite probably all the css files
 of all the webpages to make the pages look nice, so it's a really huge
 task. IMO we should not work on this at the moment, perhaps we can look at
 this when we will have to work heavily on the pages for fedora.next.

 I also wonder how many people use a 1920x1200 resolution, laptops actually
 are mainly 15" and are still using a standard resolution of 1366x768,
 where the pages look acceptable IMHO.
