[MEX] M3 - Release onto wikidata.org under feature flag
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

As a wikidata editor
I want to test out the new mobile editing functionality for simple text inputs and text inputs req. dropdowns on production
So that I can see if there is anything unique to live which wasn't visible in other environments

A/C

  • both simple text inputs and text inputs req. dropdowns type statements have full functionality (CRUD) on all editable fields (statement, qualifier, reference, ranking, valuetype)
  • These both also match the presentable quality level (matches figma design and passes UX review, no bugs impacting functionality)
  • the existing beta feature flag is visible to users of wikidata.org

open question

  • when/how does this announcement happen? - We will do the technical update independent of the announcement

Note: An update to the copy of the beta feature will be handled in T411341: [MEX] M3 - Prepare beta feature page details. The release to wikidata.org can happen before the copy is finalized.
