When the New Filters graduate out of beta on RC page, we will:
- Introduce the new filters to users getting them for the first time. This applies only to users that didn't have the beta feature enabled, but now will see the new feature since it become the default.
- Provide a path to disable the new feature. We expect users to like the new filters, but providing them some flexibility to go back to the old system provides them an emergency exit to some issues (e.g., a specific gadget breaking the new tool), avoiding unnecessary stress.
We can use a similar pattern to the one we used to welcome users of the beta feature (T159010).
==The Introduction Popover
- {icon check-square color=green}
After graduation, when a user who was not previously opted in to the beta visits the RC page for the first time, a popover will appear introducing the new features.
- {icon check-square color=green} The popover remains visible for 4 seconds, and then disappears.
- {icon check-square color=green} The user can also dismiss the popover by 1) clicking the "OK, got it" button, 2) clicking a link to navigate away from the page 3) clicking the page anywhere outside the popover.
- {icon check-square color=green} Once it is dismissed or disappears on its own, the Introduction should not be shown to that user on that wiki again.
- {icon check-square color=green} Different messages are shown to ORES vs. non-ORES wikis (wording below).
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=red} A "Learn more" link is provided. The link opens a new tab/browser and goes to the [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Edit_Review_Improvements/Filters_for_Special:Recent_Changes | RC Filters page on mediawiki ]].
- {icon check-square color=green} The design of the popover will be based on the one we showed to beta users in T159010. See the screenshot below for layout, but use the wording in the "Wording" section below.
-- {icon check-square color=green} The image used in the panel will be animated. A non-looping animated Gif for the animation is available at F5053416

==The preferences Notice
After the user dismisses the Introduction, another popover gives the user notice that the new features can be disabled.
- {icon check-square color=green} The Notice appears below and points at the Preferences link in the top navigation.
- {icon check-square color=green} If the user does nothing, the popover will vanish automatically after 3 seconds.
- {icon check-square color=green} If the user clicks the popover, clicks the page off the popover or navigates to a different page, the popover disappears.
- {icon exclamation-triangle color=green} The Notice will not be repeated for that user on that wiki.

==Wording for popovers
[INTRODUCTION, ORES VERSION]
**Welcome to improved Recent Changes filtering**
{icon check-square color=green} Review edits more efficiently using improved tools, a new interface and the power of machine learning.
[INTRODUCTION, NON-ORES]
**Welcome to improved Recent Changes filtering**
{icon check-square color=green} Review edits more efficiently using new filters, a more powerful interface, user-defined highlighting and and other improvements.
[NOTICE]
{icon check-square color=green} Access your preferences any time to disable the improved version of Recent Changes.
== Implementation
{icon check-square color=green} For logged-in users, it should use preferences, as usual.
{icon check-square color=green} For anonymous users, it should use jquery.jStorage, with a TTL. I suggest a year.
