A delayed update. Apologies. The interviews have been published with findings. Credit to Olga and Alex.

Howdy @Timeshifter,
Thanks for the feedback. I want to give a little background to echo @Trizek-WMF on why we utilize Tech News as a primary communication method and why centralization is important to wrangle the work we do.

I haven't gotten feedback yet. Let's go ahead an explain the current state as I've described as it's closer to reality than what the docs currently suggest. :)

I reviewed the additions to the following reports (mostly in the "Most useful results" sections that have been added):

Making a note of the conversation where this is being discussed on English Wikivoyage.

I finished Partnerships & Global Reach.

Between @Whatamidoing-WMF and I we've touched the following pages. I'm done with my day. I'll check in tomorrow for the rest.

Thanks for pointing this inconsistency out.

I had a draft sitting here in Phabricator but never published.

no luck with talk page

I think I understand the desire to show the user something when there's an error like this, but the idea of hard-coding a reference to Google in Mediawiki core strikes me as a little like dunking a delicious cookie in water (pretty gross).

We can't deploy the new map styles at the moment. We do have an update page on the status if people ask. I'm declining for now.

@ovasileva and I chatted about the rough timeline/workflow for the next few weeks/month

• Update the project page with some prototypes (interactive, images, or video)
• Notify folks via the usual mediums (mailing lists, tech news, project talk page) and ask for feedback on proposals
  • Include folks who individually asked to be contacted about development

Hey @DannyH, thank you for creating this task.

Message sent to 221 Wikipedia Village Pumps, added to Tech News, and mentioned on wikitech-l.

A hearty thank you to everyone who took photos during the event! If you haven't already, please make sure your files end up on Commons for all to enjoy.

Also.. It might be wise to actually talk to the people who built said services before you tell their users to move out. I know from talking to these people they are already rather disappointed about how some of the things have evolved over the years.

I'm going to reuse the message with the update to the date being the only necessary change. I just asked our courageous volunteer translators to help update the date and provide new translations if possible.

We hosted a table during Wikimania as part of the Community Village. The Readers teams were able to interview attendees, run through prototypes and mockups of possible future improvements, and carry out card-sorting exercises to help prioritize features.

Feedback has been steady for the last month with most activity on the project talk page. @ovasileva, myself and others have reviewed all feedback and responded to actionable inquiries. Next step is to make the proposed changes as described in the next few weeks. We're still listening, but my role in actively seeking out voices has been resolved.

Message was shared via mediums two weeks ago with no feedback via any venue.

Message sent to 163 talk pages of Ambox templates on Wikipedia asking for feedback. List generated based on Wikidata entries for Template:Ambox.

Hey all, the group photo will be today, Thursday July 19th at 4pm in the main Hackathon space (Montreal / VOC Centre) on the stage. Bring your camera and smiles!

I'm sure someone (if not me) on my team can help with communicating, but we'd need a specific task for that request. :) I'm a little booked up at the moment and with Wikimania next week won't be able to be much immediate help.

@ovasileva and I have been reviewing and updating the project documentation. In light of the limited feedback from the general Village Pump posts we are preparing a targeted message to the Ambox (or locally named equal) template to go out shortly asking for feedback. The message will go out early next week.

@Jhernandez Yes. No. Well, it's complicated.

I've sent the following communication out to the wikitech-l mailing list, project page on MediaWiki.org and the latest issue of Tech News (to be published on Monday July 09).

There hasn't been much discussion on this effort in the last few months. I'm un-assigning myself. If you need CL support for a specific effort, please let us know.

I'm going to resolve this task in favor of a polite request for more specific tasks regarding CL support and Template Styles. :) There's a useful checklist in the task description we can reference going forward.

Unassigning since there hasn't been work in a few months. If/when we pick this back up let me know.

The description lists:

I changed my mind after talking to a few folks and published the documentation here:

Woot!

Since this work is not happening in the immediate future (talking to other Wikimedia projects than Wikipedia about Page Previews) I'm going to lower the priority and un-assign. If we pick things back up in the future we can go from there.

@Charlotte what are your thoughts on this task? We've communicated across the various venues and had participation at the Hackathon. Is there more to this or are we satisfied with what's been done?

What should the final URL be?

The link in the description goes to User:CKoerner_(WMF)/Visual_editor_maps. It looks good but maybe incomplete judging by the last sentence on the page.

@ovasileva A new task would probably work best. :)

A long delay in updating this task. My apologies. The most recent update was sending a short announcement to communities asking for feedback. This was sent today to Village Pumps.

I'm sorry, but the description isn't very helpful. I see the link you included, but I'm not sure what the expected behavior is. Could you please describe what the problem is with a little more clarity?

Just adding a note here. I've been monitoring the Talk page since the feature has been deployed and this is probably the single biggest frustration folks have.

A big thanks to everyone who helped organize photos throughout the event and especially those who showed up to help take the group photos. I'm going to resolve this task, but please be sure to upload your photos to Commons!

Leaving a note here of a demo @Nirzar @Jhernandez presented at the recent Hackathon using the APIs Page Previews to build navigation popups outside MediaWiki and jQuery. Might be insightful for this project.

Spread the word fellow photogs! The location for the group photo will be outside the auditorium, around the back. We'll direct people through the auditorium lobby to the location in the attached photo. @Mholloway, @Petr_Urbanec and I scouted the location this morning and we should all be able to fit. If you want to help take photos or help wrangle folks to the location, please arrive a little early, say 14:45 or so.

Mentioning this RfC as I think it's relevant to this task.

I wasn't able to make the earlier discussion. The plan is to have the group photo near the auditorium - same place as the opening session. This way we can get people to the showcase (also in the auditorium) at the end of the day. Was anyone able to find a suitable place near the auditorium? If not, I'm happy to trek out with some folks this afternoon if you'd like.

A few suggestions. Things are fine, I'm not hearing any large complaints. :)

• More than one line for t-shirts
• More than one line for lunch
• Humans like words over numbers, give rooms names, even if made up for event.
• Provide a quiet room (if there is one, I can't find it)
