Topic on Talk:Growth/Personalized first day/Structured tasks/Add a link

so we found in hewiki, that wrong links suggested by the tool are often added by people using it.

we would like to "strengthen" it a bit by adding or modifying the instructions the tool presents to the users.

can you please point to the "system messages" used by the tool? or better yet, could you explain how i can activate "add a link" tool on one's own account, presumably by adding something to the personal JS ?

currently, some but not all users see it on hewiki.

peace.

Hello @קיפודנחש.

To enable the "add a link" tool, you will first need the newcomer homepage enabled, and then you might need to complete a second step if you haven't been opted into the "add a link" experiment by default.

1. From your preferences, you will want to be sure that הצגת דף הבית למתחילים is enabled / checked.
2. Then navigate to your newcomer homepage.
3. Select some topics.
4. Then if you only want to view "add a link" edits, then you can select עריכות קלות and make sure that only the following is selected: הוספת קישורים בין ערכים

Are you not seeing that option? I can provide a snippet of code if needed, but I think once you enable the newcomer homepage you should see that option.

To help new users utilize "add a link" more effectively, I also highly suggest you customize the Growth Configuration for hewiki. There are many improvements that could be added including adding a "Destination page for learning more about link recommendation task type."

Does this help?

@KStoller-WMF: yes, it helps. thank you so much!

peace.
