Description

Common requests for limiting surveys according to user identity include:

Only ask people with specific user rights (e.g., admins or autoconfirmed users)
Only ask people using specific languages as their user interface (e.g., Spanish interface language but editing at an English wiki)
Only ask people with specific preferences (e.g., all users with gender set to female)
Only ask people who have opted into a particular Beta Feature
Only ask people with a specific edit count (e.g., between 0 and 50 local edits)
Only ask people with a specific account age (e.g., registered during the last year or more than X months old)

The point is to reach the people that you need to reach, without bothering the people the people that you don't need to reach.

Removing MediaWiki-Page-editing so that this doesn't clutter searches related to actually editing pages in MediaWiki. This project should only be on the parent task, probably (T89970). [batch edit]

@matmarex any way we can batch edit all these tasks to have "Reading Web tracking"? I don't have rights

@Jdlrobson You have to be a member of acl*Batch-Editors to get the rights – then you get a "Batch Task Editor" interface below these search results. The project description says "If you want to join, ask a member of acl*phabricator.", so I suggest you get yourself added to it and do the batch edit yourself, it is sometimes convenient to have this ability. (If you can't or don't want to, I could make this batch edit.)

What is "Reading Web tracking"? I can't find a project by that name. (Also, if you want all tasks matching that query to be automatically tagged with that, you can set up a Herald rule.)
