This task involves the work of sharing [the findings](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Usability#Analysis_#2:_Impact) from the [A/B test the Editing Team ran](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Usability/Analysis) to evaluate the impact of the suite of [talk page design changes (desktop)](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Usability#Design) with volunteers at the projects that participated in this test [i] and learn what – if anything – concerns them about the prospect of these features being made available to everyone by default.
=== Learning objectives
- [] 1. What – if any – questions/concerns does the proposal bring to mind for volunteers at each of the wikis that participated in the A/B test?
=== Message
**Information to share**
1. The A/B test wikis agreed to participate in [ii] has concluded
2. The findings are available for people to review [iii]
3. What conclusions the team is drawing from this test [iv]
4. What the team is proposing to do as a result (see `=== Proposal` below)
**Draft**
//This section will eventually include the announcement we'll translate and share with volunteers at each of the wikis listed below.//
=== Proposal
1. For everyone (logged in and out) who has NOT explicitly **disabled** the `Show discussion activity` setting within `Special:Preferences` viewing a desktop Article or User talk page, show them the version of talk pages where the suite of Usability Improvements are enabled
-- //Note: for a detailed explanation of what "suite of Usability Improvements" means in this context, review the "UX Changes" section of T329407.//
2. For anyone who is logged in that comes to prefer the legacy desktop talk page experience, they can disable the changes at any point by "unchecking" the `Show discussion activity` setting within `Special:Preferences`
