Subject: [Wikitech-l] English Wikipedia Homepage Framework
To: Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org


Hello,

I just wanted to make everyone aware of a discussion going on at the English
Wikipedia.  They are discussing changing the Main Page, not visibly, but just
changing the page from a table based layout to one that is a little bit more
modern.  The discussion can be found here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Main_Page#Proposal_to_implement_new_framework
_for_main_page

One of the things that came up during the discussion was testing the framework
with a wide variety of browsers.  A lot of the opposition to it that I could see
came from the lack of testing.  I feel like I remember us discussing here
previously a framework for testing stuff across many browsers.  If we have
something of the like here, I think that it could be well deployed to help them
out.  No reason for them to re-invent the wheel or do all of the testing
manually.

Thank you,
