Hello!
Did you know that the new interface (Vector 2022) is almost ready? Let's
talk about this project. The meeting will take place on 29 March (Tuesday)
at 18:00 UTC on Zoom.[1]
We will present the state of the project and the latest prototype,[2] and
answer any questions you may have. See the details about the agenda and
format of the meeting.[3]
About the project
The goals are to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for
readers while keeping the utility for advanced editors. The changed
interface makes it easier to read and learn, navigate within the page,
search, switch between languages, use page tabs and the user menu, and
more.
The improvements are already default on almost 30 wikis. We would love to
see these changes become default across all wikis. We plan on beginning
conversations on the largest wikis in the coming months.
If you'd like to learn more, see the announcement on the English Wikipedia
