Open question about whether or not these links should open in a new tab — going to check out browser behavior today and update this task accordingly

I think it makes the most sense for the link behavior to follow whatever is default in the wiki.

@Niedzielski can you answer a few questions please:

1. Which environment does this need to be tested in?
2. The acceptance criteria lists the links as desktop links, but item #2 in the developer notes indicates the links should respect user langage (thanks @phuedx for the explanation). Which one is correct? or should this be tested in both desktop and mobile?

@alexhollender @Edtadros staging has been updated with this code ^

This should be viewable and work when in mobile mode on desktop and mobile devices

This is a great question and one I had myself as I was working on it. In the end, I deliberately chose to do a mix of both:

"Learn more" links to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Advanced_mobile_contributions
"Send feedback" links to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Reading/Web/Advanced_mobile_contributions

My reasoning for doing it this way was that mediawiki.org should automatically redirect to m.mediawiki.org if the user is on a mobile device. If the user is on desktop device, then it should stay on desktop mode. @pmiazga is this correct?

@Edtadros

Looks good to me. Back over to you @Edtadros.

Quick question - do we want to track clicks on those links (how many people visit Learn More and Send feedback) ?

@ovasileva since we'll be linking directly to our AMC project page from the Settings page on mobile, I was thinking it might make a sense to add some sort've tl;dr/intro type thing to the top of the page.

Currently the page starts out with:

The mobile skin Minerva Neue was optimized for new readers and is missing several key contribution workflows that power editors depend on. The skin choose not to link to certain pages to avoid overwhelming new users with links and other pages used on desktop were found not optimized or even usable on mobile devices.

Maybe we add something like:

Advanced mobile contributions mode is an experiment(?) in adding more contributor features/capabilities to the mobile experience. Jump to the proposed features section below to see what types of features/capabilities we're hoping to add. If you've enabled the feature please visit our talk page to give us your thoughts (good or bad) and ideas.

@CKoerner_WMF would it be possible to request translations of our project page in Spanish, Arabic, and Indonesian? These are the languages we'll be launching with so it seems important to have those setup. Thoughts?

I think this information would be interesting, although not essential. How difficult would it be to add tracking?

Not for right now

Yeah, I think that's a good idea. I can update.

The page is already marked for translation, although I'm not sure if we have a way to find translators in those languages. @CKoerner_WMF - I think you had some ideas the last time we discussed this, but I don't quite remember what they were.

We can get this information by looking at pageview data and referrers.

To not separately bug our volunteer translators I can ask for translations on the translators-l mailing list, specifically targeting the 3 languages for both the short announcement about the first round of options (talk page link) and to translate the project page. @ovasileva (and others) does the language in this announcement look good?

@nray - yes, that is correct, and for now lets keep it that way. I know that there are some ideas to remove the mobile domain (I have no idea if this is going to happen)
@alexhollender - we can add some param to the the URL, like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Reading/Web/Advanced_mobile_contributions?amc_source=optin (I wouldn't worry about caching as this is served to logged-in users only). Then with we would have to query hive to get the number of page views with that GET amc_source param. Difficulty - easy to medium. /cc @Tbayer

The official, cache-kosher way to do this is to use a wprov parameter, which also makes querying the data slightly easier. But as you note, cache fragmentation shouldn't be a big issue here, also because it's just about two pages ;)

@Tbayer is there an official way to reserve wprov value? What do we have to do, to introduce a wprov value for AMC shares? I hope it's just editing the wiki page and reserving a new value.

Yes, editing the page is enough.
