User Interaction Consultation
This was an experimental space created by the reading team to discuss issues on how to improve the experience of reading Wikipedia. We ran this experiment until April 22, 2016, and encouraged volunteer editors, staff members, and readers to discuss their ideas. Documentation of learned lessons is found here.
We will be incorporating clear suggestions as part of Q1 planning, and decide on the most feasible to move forward with.

One way to help readers learn is to enable them to interact with content and with each other on Wikipedia. We believe that more engaged readers will learn more, and that more of them will ultimately become editors. Kindly note that this is not a wishlist.
How can we make Wikipedia more interactive for readers?
A link to your idea page will be created below. You can revisit your idea, and discuss on its talk pages.
