I had a student mention their "mentor" -- not WikiEdu staff -- and showed me a "newcomer" page I've never seen.
Looking around, I see this:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Feature_summary
In this enabled on English Wikipedia? I wonder why one student has this and not others?

Hello, it is indeed enabled on the English Wikipedia, but it will depend on when the student created their account as to whether they'll see it. The newcomer homepage can be enabled on older accounts through Preferences > User Profile > Newcomer Editor features.
