Modulo "Aggiornamenti della comunità" nella Pagina iniziale

Aggiungeremo un nuovo modulo alla Pagina Iniziale che oermetterà alle comunità di mettere in evidenza specifici eventi, campagne, progetti e iniziative. Abbiamo pubblicato una semplice versione sulle wiki beta e presto inizieremo un test A/B sulle nostre wiki pilota. Questo modulo verrà mostrato sulla Pagina iniziale solamente se le comunità decidono di utilizzarlo, quindi vedi come configurare il modulo Aggiornamenti della comunità, o condividi i tuoi pensieri sulla pagina di discussione nel progetto.

 
One design concept aimed to increase constructive activation

Constructive activation experimentation

After showcasing early design ideas at Wikimania, we conducted user testing of design prototypes. We now aim to engage communities in further discussions and plan to run a targeted experiment, presenting a structured task within the reading view to logged-in new account holders with zero edits.

Community Configuration

This Community Configuration extension was developed to help communities customize wiki features to meet their unique needs. The Growth team is now helping other Wikimedia Foundation teams make their products configurable:

  • The Moderation Tools team now provides Community Configuration for Automoderator. (T365046)
  • Certain Babel extension settings will be configurable soon. (T328171)

Future work

As part of the Growth team annual plan, we will continue to investigate ways to increase constructive activation on mobile, while also working with Data Products to move forward A/B testing functionality via the Metrics Platform.

Community events

  • Growth team members presented Community Configuration: Shaping On-Wiki Functionality Together at Wikimania (slides). The session recording is available to watch on YouTube. This session provided an update on the Community Configuration project and introduced details about the upcoming features that communities will soon be able to configure. Representatives from the Moderator Tools, Editing, Web, and Campaigns teams shared their plans for utilizing Community Configuration in the future. Following these presentations, the WMF Growth team's Benoît Evellin and Martin Urbanec answered audience questions.

Habib Mhenni gave a presentation of how mentorship works at WikiIndaba 2024. The recording is available.
