**Summary**
Page Preview preferences (existing under Preferences > Appearance > Reading preferences) will be merged with Reference Preview preferences (currently under Preferences >
Beta features). This will create a single 'Previews' preference, in the same location as the current Page preview preference.
**Note, that this will only be implemented on small default wikis (tbd), so the beta preference settings must be preserved for the remaining wikis until the feature is deployed to all wikis.**
**Requirements**
[] A single preference enables/disables both Page Previews and Reference Previews at the same time.
[] Page Previews user preference should be respected so that:
* everyone that has pagepreviews off, has the joint preference turned off
* everyone that has in on, has the joint preference turned on
* everyone from deployment date has the joint preference turned on by default
[] If the user has the NavPopups gadget enabled, which hides both features, it does not change a users setting but visibly greys out the preference and adds a message to disable the gadget to user the features. If the user has RefTooltips enables (or the wiki has RefTooltips enabled by default), the preference remains usable and is not greyed out, but a message is added to indicate that the gadget has to be disabled to use RefPreviews. The hiding behavior for RefPreviews is covered in another ticket: {T265872}
[] The merged Preview preference is editable in three different locations:
* Logged in users:
[] Appearance preference page (This ticket adjusts the wording to reflect the joint preference in the existing location)
[] The cog-wheel/pop-up Ref Previews, implemented in this ticket {T234205}. For the current ticket, adjust the wording to reflect the joint preference for the existing pop up for Page Previews as shown below.
* Anonymous users:
[] Cog-wheel pop-up that saves the preference via a cookie
