Sj added a comment to T301044: Request creation of OurWorldinData VPS project.

Bawolff: Most of our projects are built on external resources we don't control, backed up by web archives we also don't control. The threats you mention are rare events we already cope with on the projects. (and we still manage to let e.g. wikivoyage maps render external layers)

A proxy service for calls to such caches of trusted + curated knowledge makes sense.
That doesn't seem specific to this OWID use case, is there an existing proxy library that could be generalized or extended?

@Discott @GabrielLucas @Theklan @John_Cummings nice to see! I'd be glad to be part of a workshop on supporting new formats, the overarching needs / costs / reasons-for-stalling are quite similar. And I think the best approach to realize this [since there is a necessary WM-core bottleneck] is to define a time-delimited project to identify and add a range of formats [and then update the workflow for doing so, ping interested people, &c].

Renaming this. I keep encountering people who want the old menus back and are glad to learn they can customize a skin if they log in. It's a very reasonable motivation to create an account [and an inroad to learning about the amazing array of other gadgets], but they need to know it's possible.

Sj added a comment to T329531: Reduce the proliferation of language and translation links (Vector).

Ok. But now that the others are there and the sticky header provides access to the links from anywhere in the page, the large notice is simply too large, not clearly worded, and misleading; clicking on it needlessly shifts your window up. Plus on en:wp the text always ends in an orphaned line.

@BCornwall exactly, my comment was about the top of the page, not the sticky header (its padding is quite good). The excess v-space is easy to see for small screens:

Sj added a comment to T326981: Display settings and input settings should have their own labelled buttons in the languages dropdown in Vector 2022, instead of the cog icon or three dots.

I like this approach. I'd also strongly encourage making it 2-3x less wide, and making the lineheight no greater than that of the article.
The excess whitespace is distracting and repaints an unnecessarily large part of the page.

In general, the 24px between header and topmost sitenotice seems unnecessary. There is already padding at the bottom of the header, and most sitenotices have some as well. This is just the most visible when there's no banner at all.

For the "unchanging position" vs "getting space back" tradeoff: I agree user choice [of how much space to have for the body] should be a priority. But explicitly choosing "with sidebars" or "expanded / body-focused / full-width" feels different to me than choosing which menus to pin, leading opaquely to 3 different positions for the body.

Moss is looking excellent! Thanks for this update, @ovasileva and all. The font size, line height, inter-section spacing, and background color/border all improve readability for me.

Sj added a comment to T327440: Post-deployment Vector 2022 metrics analysis on English Wikipedia.

I would find it helpful to see, using the same user_id hash function so that you can get the breakdown:

  • # of accounts with 1 edit in the past year / with 1+/5+/100+ edits/month in the last 3 months
  • # of these accounts which have made an edit, logged in, or changed any preference since the launch (or: is there a better way to confirm if they have been online/reading this week?)
  • # of new accounts created since the launch
  • # of accounts in each of the above categories which have opted out

Sj added a comment to T327953: Analyze number of users using each available skin on English Wikipedia.

This seems a different definition of 'active editor' than stats.w.o uses. Could someone calculate the % for the traditional definition of active & very active editors? (5 & 100 edits/month)

Sj added a comment to T327734: [Vector 2022] Offer anons a "Switch to old look" option that helps them log in and set their skin..

A lot of discussions about how this impacts readers, on en:wp at least, has assumed that logged-out readers will understand they can customize the skin by logging in. That was my assumption as well in past weeks, because in skin tests there was no way to test the "anon experience" -- the only way to choose the beta Vector 2022 skin was to be logged in, in the first place.

Sj added a comment to T317818: [L] [SPIKE] Add configurability options for table of contents.

When compiling toy models to support, please include a page that consistently has ~100 sections (like an active noticeboard or talk page). For these a common way to browse is by skimming across section titles in the TOC. Being able to do that without locating and scrolling inside a tiny TOC (e.g., by paging down the central page content instead) is useful.
