Growth/Engineering/Weekly/2022/WW10
Growth engineering summary for March 7 – 11
We enabled Growth features for 100% of new accounts on enwiki. For the GLAM images campaign, we continued working on AND topic filtering and built some supporting tooling for the first test event which went well. Add Image is deployed to a second group of wikis. For AddLink, we continued work on frontend and algorithm changes, as well as reworking the post-edit dialog experience. A core change broke our help panel feature but it was fixed before progressing to the train. We participated in image suggestion API discussions with data/platform engineering teams. Finally, we welcome Dennis back!
