Hey all,
Very excited to share that our first AB test is deployed on beta wiki, if everything go alright it will be up on production on Monday.
Go try it out for yourself: http://www.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/#pab1
Special thanks to the team! This is a big step and I'm so proud of everyone for coming together and getting all the blockers out of the way. Now lets push this out to production on Monday!
Thank you! Moiz
_DAMN_ that's prominent!
Nicely done Moiz, Julien and everyone else! Really excited for Monday :D

I saw Oliver's message before I checked out the beta wiki. He's right.
Even though the other search bar was right there and it's purpose is obvious, I think this should help with the bounce rate, at least for people like me who never go to the main page on purpose.
Very cool!
Nice. Really eager to start seeing the data come in next week.

Congratulations, team! Now let's get the test out to production so we can start recording data! :-)

Production what? Where? Via Meta-Wiki portal pages, I suppose? When you sync your code with the main one on Meta-Wiki, remember not to introduce some of the various mistakes the beta version currently contains (especially as regards ordering).
Will the test also test whether people are able to spost the minuscule grey-over-white acronyms for the language selection of the search bar?

MetaWiki is no longer used to host the portals; they've been switched over to a git repository (with the okay of the main maintainer of the metawiki versions, to boot).
What do you mean ordering mistakes?

And thanks for surfacing the language selector; I'll factor that into the analysis (i.e., how any increase or decrease in search usage impacts the variety of places people end up. If they're all searching in English we need to boost prominence.)

I think Nemo is referring to the fact that languages are ordered by code and not by label. e.g. "Bahasa Melayu" (code MS) is under "Magyar" (code HU).
Hmm sorry, the language order in the selector is exactly the same as the one available in prod. But the languages around the globe are slightly different.

Yeah, looks like that to me too.

- The languages in the dropdown should be the same, in the same order.
- The languages around the world changed because the stats were updated. The order can change whenever the stats are updated (since the sorting is based on those stats).
Please file any mistake you find, so we can fix them (asap).
Thanks, Julien.
