Hey all, As you might know, the Editor Engagement Experiments team spent several weeks in 2012-13 testing changes to the account creation page, aiming to make it easier for new editors to join our projects.[1]
Soon you'll see wider announcements on-wiki and on the blog about the "soft launch" of the interface changes we've built now that testing is over. The short version: for roughly a week, we're initially launching the changes in MediaWiki core on an opt-in basis, so that editors can test the localizations and hunt for bugs on their home wiki without potentially disrupting the essential functions of login and account creation. This Saturday the 27th at 18:00 UTC,[2] we'll be hosting IRC office hours to talk about these changes with anyone interested. Please join us. :-) -- Steven Walling https://wikimediafoundation.org/ 1. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Account_creation_user_experience 2. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
