Hi everybody,
Following up on last week's email, the team has made significant improvements to the *enhanced search box*:
- We developed a JavaScript-only version of the language picker, on
top of the previous patch, so that users who have JS enabled (93% of our traffic) get a nicer version of the language picker. - Shorter language code is displayed, allowing more space for text within the search input. - Triggers the native selector on mobile devices. - The search box looks better overall.
Users who disable JavaScript, or are using old IE versions, get the native selector already presented in last email.
*It's merged into master, and deployed on beta!*
*Check it out:* http://www.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/
*Deployment to production * (Phab ticket for reference: Epic T125472 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125472)
The patch has been submitted for Thursday's Evening SWAT (Thu 00:00â01:00 UTC, Wed 16:00â17:00 PST) https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Thursday.2C.C2.A0March.C2.A010 .
Last chance to enjoy the "good old search" https://www.wikipedia.org/ !
Chris https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:CKoerner_(WMF) and Deborah https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:DTankersley_(WMF) will answer any question or concern related to this deployment

*IE browsers:*

*Mobile browsers:*
iOS, JS: http://i.imgur.com/7mbCKu6.png iOS, no-JS: http://i.imgur.com/F2rQpEE.png (basic language picker because no JS)
Note that JS is required for the typeahead/suggestions feature (this is already the case with the current page, no regression). If you don't have JS, you will have to submit the form in order to get results.
*Next A/B test: Use language detection to re-arrange the primary links to suit the user better*
*Coming soon!* The team has also made significant progress, stay tuned!
