Hi,

I think design is a subjective term. It depends on person-to-person preferences. So there will always be a big room for improvement.

WMF's Readers web team is already working to improve the design. They did research and implemented new designs. We should always cooperate with them by giving feedback so that more improvement can take place.

Currently, this team has 14 team members and consists of 3 UX Designer/Engineers. So saying that they are not big enough is not good. Please keep in mind that a big team is not always a good idea. [1][2]

Indeed, the lack or modernisation of the web interface, and lack of an improved Android/iPhone (or simply "smartphone") editing app[1] are possibly some of the major areas to focus.
 
If the "next billion internet users", a term we often used to use are not getting involved as much as we expected, possibly "interface" is one reason behind it.

Dear all,
Today I learned that, despite having $100 million in the Endowment fund, we can't have a design team big enough to make our websites not look like they're stuck in 2001. I don't know if anyone is behind the wheel, but the car is expensive.

Sincerely,
Galder
