Hi folks,
We'd like to invite you to join our discussion of Beta Features (1), which we just
deployed worldwide yesterday.
Our office hours IRC chat starts in a half-hour, today at 18:00 UTC. (2)
If you cannot join this chat, we invite you to try out Beta Features and share your
feedback on one of the pages below (3-8)
And if you find any technical bugs, please report them on Bugzilla (9).
Beta Features is a new program that lets you test new features on Wikipedia and other
Wikimedia sites before they are released widely.
We hope it can help us improve Wikipedia together and provide a better experience for all
our users around the world.
Hope to speak with you soon,
Fabrice -- on behalf of the Multimedia, Visual Editor and Design teams
