Description

WE 2.1.6 Improve discovery of vital content collections

Hypothesis text

If we prioritise vital knowledge collections within the translation workflow, 5 language communities will mark locally-relevant lists for inclusion.

Reasoning

Page collections are a powerful feature to clearly list out articles that should be worked on in the context of a topical collaboration (campaigns, wikiprojects) or a community's core “vital knowledge”. However, their presentation in the Content Translation dashboard is both far (several clicks away) and chaotic (long list of miscellaneous collections from various wiki and for various purposes with no context). Providing the communities with the ability to nominate one or few collections as “featured” and giving them proper emphasis would help translators contribute the content that’s been identified as top priority. Wikis can engage in different ways: it can be a single list of “vital” articles or their most important campaigns at the moment.

Delivery approach
  1. Design exploration
  2. Community engagement using design output to find candidate communities and help them identify their vital collections.
  3. Technical ability to nominate vital collections by community
  4. UI/UX changes to emphasize/surface vital collections
  5. Instrumentation updates if needed
Measurements
  1. Community adoption: 5 communities nominate their vital collection(s)
  2. Translators engagement: Translations started from vital collections suggestions increase compared to current collection-based suggestions
  3. Vital knowledge growth: Accelerated content growth in vital articles
