EMcFarland-WMF added a comment to T422953: Add account creation rate metrics (registered and temporary) to Metrics Catalog.

I would support updating the we-1-8-mobile-account-menu experiment to show both permanent/temporary account creation rates.

EMcFarland-WMF added a comment to T422861: PHP Warning: Undefined array key "href".

Hi, I'm following up on a comment on patch 1253392. I don’t think patch 1253392 surfaced this error, because I can’t see a way in which those changes would have removed or changed $item['href']. Let me know if you have any other questions, thanks.

Hi Elena, I apologize for missing your question last week. You can’t see the change in patch demo because TestKitchen is not available in patch demo. As Michael said, you should be able to view it at https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/wiki/Main_Page?mpo=we-1-8-mobile-account-menu:treatment, but beta appears to be down right now…. I’m unsure why.

Hi @AAlhazwani-WMF, I'm working on the implementation for temp accounts. I have a question similar to what I asked you in a comment on this task https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415648. Could you please confirm that users with temp accounts, as they are considered logged-out mobile users, should also see the "Create account" and "Log in" menu items on the hamburger menu?

Hi @Etonkovidova, thank you for flagging this. My understanding was that we want the Suggested Edits to accept custom inputs, because users might want to select a template from a different wikipedia. That is why Suggested Edits allows custom inputs, but Namespaces Control for T415288 does not. Please let me know if I am missing anything or misunderstood the scenario I mentioned.

EMcFarland-WMF updated subscribers of T415288: HelpPanel: NamespacesControl component creates a chip when user clicks outside of input.

Hi @Etonkovidova, I wanted to flag some unusual behavior related to this task. Today while I was pairing with Martin and working on my local master branch, which included this change, I saw an error when attempting to delete a namespace from Namespaces Control. The error message was "NULL value found, but an integer is required." I wasn't able to consistently reproduce the bug, and it may have been causing by forgetting to hard refresh after updating master. That being said, I wanted to highlight this scenario as one to test especially carefully during QA.

EMcFarland-WMF added a comment to T415288: HelpPanel: NamespacesControl component creates a chip when user clicks outside of input.

I wanted to clarify a change to the task. Previously, the task incorrectly said that users should be able to enter custom input. After testing on test.wikipedia.org, I realized that is not desired behavior. The task has since been updated.

Here are notes for how to do manual QA for this task. (I know the task isn't there yet, but I am including these notes for future QA.)
Scenario: No mentors on a wiki.

  1. On a wiki that has no mentors, navigate to the Special:ApiSandbox page.
  2. Select action=helppanelquestionposter.
  3. For source, select "mentor-helppanel" from the dropdown.
  4. Submit the request.
  5. You should see an error that explains there are no mentors.

Thank you, @Urbanecm. You're right that making the task more specific will make it easier for us to agree when the task is completed. That will also speed up the review process, which is good. What do you think of the current task? Also, do you like the idea of including "antigoals" in the task? In my experience, it can be helpful for preventing scope creep.
