User story: as an editor on Wikipedia, I want to know where I can find recommendations and how they work, so that I can find interesting things to edit.

So far, usability testing has suggested that users might not notice the Recommendations icon and link in the personal toolbar. This is not far fetched, since there are a lot of links and many (like notifications) are far more noticeable. How can we point out recommendations at the appropriate time for the user?

We've discussed two potential design solutions:

1. A simple guided tour. The questions here are: When would it be triggered? What would it contain? How many steps does it need?
2. Another method, like a status indicator similar to the notifications counter. Perhaps the lightbulb icon could be visually highlighted using color or animation, to indicate a seen/unseen recommendations state?

To Do

• Design a simple guided tour
• Consider other design solutions
