Talk pages project/Feature summary/pt
The Editing Team built a series of talk page features in 2020. These features are a part of Talk pages project, and are implemented by the DiscussionTools extension. The goal is to help editors, across experience levels, communicate more efficiently on wiki.
This project is the result of the Talk pages consultation 2019, a five-month-long consultation in which volunteers from at least 20 wikis and staff from the Foundation defined a product direction for building better tools for on-wiki communication.
The features the Editing Team has built as part of this project are listed here and described in more detail below.
- Reply tool - a tool for replying to comments inline. The tool automatically signs and indents comments and offers a quick way for pinging other users.
- New topic tool - a tool for starting new sections inline. The tool will automatically add your signature, and like the Reply Tool, offer a quick way for pinging other people.
- Topic subscriptions - receive a notification whenever someone posts a new comment in a discussion you are interested in.
- Mobile talk page improvements
- Permalinks - link to and locate talk pages comments and topics everywhere they are referenced.
- Usability improvements - a set of visual adjustments to help people assess talk page activity and recognize talk pages as places to communicate with other volunteers.
Reply tool
visual mode.
source mode and advanced options.The new reply tool automatically signs and indents wikitext talk page comments and offers a quick way for pinging other users.
The tool works like some existing user scripts.[1][2]
First, it detects user signatures and timestamps on the page, and then it adds a [ responder ] link next to them.
When you click the [ responder ] link, you see a box to type your reply into.
