Patrik, try it on a 640x480 screen. :P

if it's worth spending any more time on the concept. For now, we're
simply
hiding the banner all together below 920px, as at smaller viewports it begins to interfere with site navigation elements.
It is truly an amazing banner, as it might be the first donation banner in the history of donation banners that actually improve the readability of our content. Indeed, we have never been closer to line length recommendations for optimal readability than with this banner.

TL;DR: A short test of a new banner concept will help us decide if it's worth iteration and improvement.
Here's a link to the banner: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple?banner=dsk_p1_lg_ right10&country=US&force=1
I appreciate that you're trying to innovate, and this requires pushing boundaries. I also appreciate that the WMF fundraising principle "minimal disruption"[1] is subjective thing - and that the WMF has traditionally taken this to mean "be disruptive for the shortest period" rather than
"be
less disruptive overall, even if it takes longer". However, I do feel that *resizing all the article content to the left,
and
occupying the entire right side third of the screen with a donation
request
that follows me as I scroll *is significantly more than minimally disruptive. Personally, I would request that this design approach not be pursued on that basis.

p.s. Also, on my screen at least, the "x" dismiss button in the top-right is so small that it hides under Chrome's translucent scrollbar
