Thanks for looking into this quickly, @kostajh. I listed some other questions in the task description that we will want to know.

I just checked several production wikis and my legacy users all have Variant D. And accounts that didn't have it, when I flip it on in preferences, they get Variant D. That's all as expected.

@Catrope will be looking into this.

We would like to look into this today, if possible.

Thank you! There are already 16 edits -- a pretty good start.

@Tgr -- I think you're talking about the English scores crosswalked to other languages, right? @Isaac and I talked about that, and we were disinclined to mix-and-match model scores inside a wiki (because the crosswalks have like 60% for lots of wikis). Would that mixing and matching cause any engineering issues? I am also loathe to ask people to evaluate another 640 articles for their language, but we could consider it.

@PPham @Dyolf77_WMF @Urbanecm @Trizek-WMF -- this is the validation work for the new topic model. Please see the instructions in the task description. I'll be working on English. I expect this to be about three hours of work, and I would like us to be complete by the end of next week.

@Urbanecm -- could you please include your audit?

@Urbanecm -- would you be able to add screenshots of the change?

@Tgr -- that's right, special-casing this week's users is not important to do.

@Etonkovidova -- could you please see if you can replicate this? If so, then please put it in "Inbox".

@Tgr -- I think what you listed is correct. But about the last point: we don't want legacy users to all get new popups. We only want new users going forward to get the popups like they're supposed to.

This issue is a consequence of logic we implemented in T229044: Homepage: users should only receive one discovery GuidedTour, where we said we didn't want to show the homepage welcome tour to users who had seen the homepage discovery tour, as well as some code in implementing T258009: Variant C/D: welcome popup on desktop where we excluded variant C and D users from the discovery tour.

So to rephrase:

• All variants should see the "discover your homepage" tour if they don't go to the homepage after the welcome survey
• Variants C/D should see the "welcome to your homepage" tour, even if they have already seen the "discover your homepage" tour

Is that correct?

@Tgr -- the steps I used most recently are:

@kostajh said the first step here is to break out subtasks, likely this week.

@Tgr and @kostajh are working on this this week.

@Catrope is working on this this week.

Because @Tgr has a fix for the underlying issue in T257936: Support the WebRequest / WebResponse SameSite behavior on the JS side, and because he thinks that the error described on this task can be ignored, we don't think this task actually needs work. Sending it back to the Editing team to check that out.

We have decided not to address this in the near term because the solution will not be simple.

@Trizek-WMF -- I believe we encountered this issue ("new messages at the top") with other wikis. Could you please look into whether or how we handled it in the past?

Potentially related report by @Dyolf77_WMF via email: "if you ignore the Welcome survey after creating an account, you are asked to enter your password again!"

@kostajh @Tgr @Catrope -- I'm interested if you can think of anything that can be done here. I'll also bring it up in our team meeting.

@Etonkovidova -- since you've checked this already, should it be moved to a different column? Which one?

@Etonkovidova -- is this the sort of error that should be addressed soon? What are users experiencing?

@Albertoleoncio -- thanks for working with us on this feature and discussing it. @Trizek-WMF may have other thoughts and responses for you, but I have a question: you said "the feedback from the community has been great so far" about the mentoring feature. What are they saying? We are interested to know what is working well so that we can think about how to augment those good parts.

Moving to Design Review so @RHo can assess what, if anything, we should do about this issue.

I think this belongs in Code Review. Please move it to the right place if I'm wrong!

This is a priority for engineers to look into next week, either for a backport or with next week's train.

@kostajh @Catrope @Tgr -- @Etonkovidova and I both experienced this, and I consider it is a priority to backport next week or to ride next week's train.

I just tested this on my iPhone 6S and there are no issues with the icon. See below.

@Etonkovidova -- can you see if you can reproduce this?

(I never actually did the assigning that I said I would do on Sep 15.)

@Trizek-WMF can help sort this out and explain how the Growth team is thinking about this.

@RHo -- do we still have this issue? If not, please resolve.

I separated out the remaining work in T264974: Homepage: adapt mobile discovery for AMC. Resolving this.
