Surfacing "Add a link" Structured Tasks: Edit Tag
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As Product Analytics or someone interested in this experiment, I want an easy way to analyze completed edits for the Surfacing Structured Tasks experiment, because without this tag analysis will be more difficult

Problem:

"Add a Link" edits receive the following edit tags:
Visual edit, Mobile edit, Mobile web edit, Newcomer task, Suggested: add links

Currently there are no dedicated tag for edits that are surfaced to newcomers in the Read view.

Decision:

Surfaced "Add a Link" edits should receive the standard edit tags:
Visual edit, Mobile edit, Mobile web edit, Newcomer task, Suggested: add links

And one additional tag:

Suggested:in read view

Tag description:

An edit suggested to a newcomer while reading an article.

Acceptance Criteria:

Given I'm analyzing WE1.2.9 / WE1.2.11 (FY24/25) experiment data,
When I need to differentiate between "add a link" edits,
Then there is an easy way to filter down to just the "add a link" edits that are surfaced to newcomers in the read view.
