we don't have (yet!) a mobile varian for the codex popover - see T386144 and slack convo - but it could work well here!
Wed, Feb 4
building off a past convo on "designing for curios people" i'd like to suggest another small change @KStoller-WMF. instead of adding a "learn more" link at the end for the username field description we could directly link the word "public".
curious about the rational here.. why not simply say that is not available?
@Michael found another one!
Tue, Feb 3
after chatting with the editing team (peter and nico) we've confirmed that we'd like to open links within the quiz-style onboarding in a new tab instead of in the same tab.
Fri, Jan 30
@Sgs two small details:
- from your screenshots i can see that they styling is all codex (which is great!) but i've noticed that the button are missing the 2px rounded corners / border-radius-base, is that an easy fix?
- would it be possible to align the content of the page to the center?
(5) Tags Newcomer task Suggested: revise tone are added for non-Revise Tone edits
Ex. https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lorem_ipsum&diff=704421&oldid=643573
mostly as food for thoughts, when the growth team tested surfacing add-a-link to readers - a much simpler task compared to adding an infobox - we did observe statistically significant difference in constructive activation between treatment and control
@KStoller-WMF is this what you're suggesting? @Sgs do we have control over the bolden words like "Warning" "log in" "create an account"? i support keeping things simple - i'm only afraid that the current combination is subpar.

@Sgs after chatting with kirsten, and nico/peter from the editing team, we decided to remove the "Learn more"[1] link, and include that as part of the message itself.

another lightweight idea that we've exploring is a general clean up of the form following the latest codex recommendations[1]. mostly moving things around, and removing redundant ones - more specifically we're suggesting to:
sharing some updates, and first design explorations that we could experiment with...
just checked https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/GrowthExperiments/+/1230279, and realized we're actually updating growthexperiments-help-panel-postedit-success-message-notsaved to also be aligned with the other messages. ignore my message above @Cyndymediawiksim, thank you!

a-ha, thanks @DLynch! i didn't refresh the page hence didn't see your answer!

Will the popup pre-save be shown before or after the pre-save edit checks?
we've finalized the comp review, and put the findings together in a slide deck (internal google slides).

we've looked at the top 20 services across web[1], ios[2], and android[3] to build off jakob's law[4], and we've started to compile a comp review[5]. the figma file takes a while to load, be patient :)

@KStoller-WMF feel free to revert changes if this is not the case.
last week, we've tested 3 variants of the logged-out warning message with 15 participants (5 per variant). the unmoderated test observed participants’ reactions to different timings and visual treatments of the authentication prompt when logged-out users attempt to edit (full report)

we've reviewed the first round of changes and confirmed that they've been addressed. we've followed up internally on few other issues that will be addressed separately from this task/patch.

w've addressed this by coding an alternative prototype instead of relying on patchdemo.

i've also created the eng task T410386: Prompt user to create a regular account after temp account creation rate limit trip
Should we disclose additional information inside as an accordion or styled as caption and visible at all times?
Should we should the modal once or twice?
posted update on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357802#11383116
while working on T408011: Design Research: Prompt user to create a regular account after temp account creation rate limit trip we landed on this design and copy proposal..

some more food for thoughts from the en community https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(idea_lab)/Archive_66#c-Mikeycdiamond-20250520195500-An_official_achievement_system
after reading https://www.intechopen.com/online-first/1221745 we started a thought experiment/brainstorming with @TAndic where we tried to map those different progression systems (skill-based, item-based, narrative, etc) to the current ux on the wikis (internal miro board)

@kostajh we started to explore a few early ideas, and would love your feedback.. feel free to ping/add other folks to this task as needed, thank you!
thanks @EMcFarland-WMF! i might have missed something here.. what's stopping us from positioning the info button as desired? basically position the button 8px from the top edge of the module, and 8px from the right edge of the module
Nov 3 2025
we've created an internal miro board, and prompted a few stakeholders across P+T to share async feedback ideally by this wed, nov 5 end of their day..
Oct 31 2025
@kostajh we listed in this google doc a series of recommendations/requirements to kick off the design exploration.. let us know what you think, and leave comments if there is anything else that should be considered as we start exploring designs and copy of this (temp account rate limit) message.. and please feel free share this doc with anyone who might have valuable feedback/input. thank you!
Oct 30 2025
we've started a design review (internal google doc) of the current ux, and identified a few recommendations. we shared this with the growth team, and after this internal review we will share this with other stakeholders too.

un-assigning because i'm working on the smaller task first T408011: Design Research: Prompt user to create a regular account after temp account creation rate limit trip
Oct 28 2025
we' started to explore a few ideas (internal figma file), and initiated a group conversation around the main benefits connected to account creation (internal slack thread)
Oct 24 2025
we've not completed the study, and drafted a first report (internal google doc)
Oct 23 2025
we've got the results (4 out of 5), and we've started to watch recordings and synthesizing findings... for 1 participant the test didn't work properly and we've requested a new participant
we completed the pilot study, refined the protocol with input from product and design research, and launched an unmoderated study with 5 participants.
thanks @Tgr! the table is super helpful, thank you for doing that. thou now i'm confused. is this task trying to find a solution for all of these workflows or only for:
