تحقیقات نشان داده است که تازه‌واردان به دلیل سه چالش اصلی: فنی، مفهومی و فرهنگی، برای ویرایش و ادامه ویرایش ویکی‌پدیا تلاش می‌کنند. آنها در حال حاضر به منابع مورد نیاز برای غلبه بر این چالش‌ها دسترسی ندارند. برای دادن این چیزها به تازه‌واردان، گروه توسعه بنیاد ویکی‌مدیا سه ویژگی به هم پیوسته ایجاد کرده است که در زیر با جزئیات بیشتر توضیح داده شده است. نشان داده شده است که این ویژگی‌ها باعث افزایش فعال‌سازی، حفظ و حجم ویرایش افراد تازه‌وارد می‌شوند.

Newcomer homepage

صفحهٔ اصلی تازه‌وارد: صفحه ویژه‌ای است که میزبان "وظایف تازه‌وارد" است و مکان خوبی برای شروع کار تازه‌وارد است. صفحهٔ اصلی به منابع زیادی دسترسی می‌دهد، از جمله پیوندی به یک مربی داوطلب که به سؤالات آنها پاسخ می‌دهد.

Newcomer tasks

وظایف تازه‌وارد: خوراکی از ویرایش‌های پیشنهادی که به تازه‌واردان کمک می‌کند ویرایش را یاد بگیرند. تازه‌واردان ویرایش‌های سازنده‌ای را از طریق این خوراک انجام داده‌اند! خوراک به عنوان ویژگی برجسته در صفحهٔ اصلی قرار دارد. Structured tasks are specific newcomers tasks based on recommendations.

Help panel

تابلو راهنما: بستری برای ارائه منابع به تازه‌واردان در حین ویرایش. هنگامی که افراد تازه‌وارد بر روی وظایف تازه‌واردان کار می‌کنند، تابلو راهنما آنها را راهنمایی می‌کند که چه کاری انجام دهند.

Mentorship

A set of tools to match newcomers looking for advice with experienced editors ready to help.

Community configuration is a special page where communities can change how Growth features work.

All of these features are available on both desktop and mobile. It is also possible for experienced users to turn them on and use them. You can try these features at all Wikipedias. They are available by default for newcomers at a majority of Wikipedias.[1]

For more information about the Growth team, see this page on mediawiki.org. To deploy the features on your wiki, please check on our deployment process page. If you have questions, please check our FAQ. You can also leave us a message.

صفحه اصلی تازه‌وارد

This special page hosts the newcomer tasks workflow, and contains other modules that give newcomers access to the most important things they need to see on their first day. After creating their account, newcomers see a popup (and some other notifications) encouraging them to visit their homepage, which is accessible through the link to their username along the top of their browser window. Though the team is still experimenting with different modules, here are modules that may appear on the homepage:

  • Mentorship module – assigns each newcomer an experienced user, and gives an easy way to post questions to the mentor's talk page. Mentors volunteer to take part by signing up. This feature has to be configured by the community to become active.
  • Suggested edits module – see "Newcomer tasks" above.
  • Help module – lists links to commonly visited help pages.
  • Impact module – shows newcomers the number of pageviews on each of the articles they have edited.
  • EmailsThe page also encourages users to add and confirm their email address.

Results so far

  • The majority of newcomers visit their homepage, and many of them return to visit their homepage on subsequent days.
  • As of November 2020, ۱۴٬۲۲۸ mentor questions have been asked by ۱۱٬۷۸۵ users.
  • The homepage increases the number of newcomers who have confirmed email addresses.

For more information about the newcomer homepage, see this page on mediawiki.org.

وظایف تازه‌وارد

This feature is the main component of the Growth features that is increasing how many newcomers make their first edit, come back to make more edits, and the number of edits they make.

Newcomer tasks is a workflow that suggests articles to edit, shown to users via the "suggested edits module" on the newcomer homepage. Newcomers are able to choose from different types of edits (based on maintenance templates) and filter to topics of interest (based on ORES models). They then can choose from a feed of articles to work on. Once on an article, the help panel will provide guidance on how to complete the edit.

Structured tasks

From the feedback we received and the data we collected, the Growth team built new editing workflows that aim to make it smaller and easier for newbies, especially from mobile devices. These are called "structured tasks".

  • The first structured task is "Structured links". In it, an algorithm suggests to newcomers words or phrases that could be good wikilinks. This feature is deployed at all Wikipedias.[2]
  • Based on these suggested links, we built a feature that suggests images to article or articles' sections that lack an image.

This feature is available at a few Wikipedias as a test.

تابلو راهنما

This is a box that newcomers can open while they are editing. It does four things:

  • Guides newcomers while they do suggested edits.
  • Lists links to commonly visited help pages.
  • Allows newcomers to search for other help and policy pages.
  • Allows newcomers to ask a question directly to the help desk.

The help panel appears in both the wikitext and visual editors. When we deploy this feature, we make sure that a wiki's existing help desk (or Teahouse) will work with the features, and that experienced users watching the help desk are willing to receive the incoming questions.

Results so far

  • About 20% of newcomers who see the help panel open it up, and about 50% of those who open it up interact with it.
  • The help panel on its own does not increase newcomer edits, but we have retained this feature because we use it to provide guidance as part of the promising newcomer tasks flow described above.

For more information about the help panel, see this page on mediawiki.org.

Community configuration

Communities can change how the Growth features work by editing Special:CommunityConfiguration. We advise all communities to make configuration changes after a community discussion. Please inform us of your discussions when they happen, because we can help you on the issue you found, or assist you with the configuration. It is also very useful for us to know that you have that discussion, so that we can improve the features.

Mentorship

Mentorship features are a set of tools to match newcomers looking for advice, with experienced editors ready to help them.

Mentorship is activated using the Community configuration page. Mentors can then sign up visiting Special:MentorDashboard. This page is where mentors can configure their mentorship preferences, and, if needed, put themselves on pause or quit.

It is up to each community to decide on criteria to become a mentor. We advise community members to keep the criteria simple and encouraging, so that more mentors would signup.

Please visit our FAQ for more information.
