Greetings!

I’m happy to let you know that we just enabled Media Viewer by default on the Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish Wikipedias.

Our most recent survey results show increasing satisfaction with Media Viewer, across languages:

We will send a more detailed update on these survey results later today.

Image load times continue to decline, as more people click on thumbnails, which caches them for faster display, as shown in this graph:

Next week, we plan to release Media Viewer on the Telugu Wikipedia on Tuesday, as well as Wikimedia Commons on Thursday. 

You can find local announcements, translations and discussion pages for all our pilots here:

As always, please let us know if you encounter any serious technical issues, or share your views on this discussion page:

Special thanks to everyone who made this release possible, especially our community partners on these sites: Oona and Henrique on the Portuguese Wikipedia, as well as Justine and Santi on the Spanish Wikipedia :)

Enjoy,


Fabrice — for the Multimedia Team
