User Story:
As a logged-out user who tries to edit an article, I want to be gently guided toward account creation, with clear benefits and a friendlier message that makes editing feel approachable and rewarding.
User Problem
When users attempt to edit while logged out, they encounter a jarring warning message that emphasizes editing as an IP or temporary account. This interface can feel abrupt and discouraging, and it frames logged-out editing as the primary path rather than encouraging users to create an account.
Current "Logged Out Warning":
Opportunity
There is an opportunity to soften the logged-out warning message and guide users toward account creation in a more supportive, motivating way. By improving the tone and visual hierarchy, we can better communicate the benefits of creating an account and make the overall experience less intimidating.
Design
Scope: this task is scoped to Mobile only, but includes VisualEditor and Source Editor.
NEW "Logged Out Warning":
Acceptance Criteria:
There will be a separate task to outline experiment set-up. For this task, the new feature should be disabled behind a feature flag.
Given I'm logged out and on a mobile device (on Minerva),
AND my last used editor is VisualEditor
When I navigate to edit,
Then I see the NEW "Logged Out Warning"
