Description

An early version of Section Translation was enabled on Bengali Wikipedia on Feb 22, 2021. Right after, a research study (T271576) was started to better understand how well the tool was serving the editors.

The general impression was positive, and several observations helped to identify areas for improvement. This epic ticket compiles as sub-tasks the tickets that are intended to address issues identified during the research.

Thickets identified on the next usability testing on Thai are captured in T296994
