Background
Based on the Prototyped code-ready design spec form Q1, we will work on an initial proof of concept to demonstrate a new, more scalable way to seed content
Approach
- Make it possible for editors of Dagbani Wikipedia to make a simple conversion edit by calling Wikifunctions.
- Make the feature production-ready, to be turned on in the new year
- Demonstrate use of the feature on Test Wikipedia (or a similar production test wiki)
- Prepare instrumentation to enable us to see if success metrics are met (in particular, “At least one article is organically using our feature on Dagbani Wikipedia”)
- Use case is based on the design prototype completed in Q1. Continue working on usability improvements in Q2, for implementation in Q3
Acceptance Criteria/Success Metrics
**Acceptance Criteria:
The feature is ready to be switched on in the new year and is using async pipeline, and is performant.
**Success metrics [Measured during Q3]:
- At least one article on Dagbani Wikipedia is using our feature organically without being reverted.
- We do not create regression or active breakage on Mediawiki. We limit MediaWiki P0 incidents related to this integration to no more than one per quarter.
- There is positive sentiment on Dagbani Wikipedia about the deployment of the feature, based on wiki conversations and checking in with our contacts.
- Related to this we will measure:
- How many users clicked on the ‘insert function’ entry point.
- Of the people who clicked on it, how many completed the task.
- Of the people who clicked on it, how many dropped out at each step [These logical points will be decided after UI is finalized] towards completion.
Stretch Goal (optional)
- Identify and prototype the next 2-3 use cases for next quarter
- We are ready to begin engineering work on the second use case in Q3
