Changing subject, the other thread is about something totally different.

WMF hasn't shown fundraising banners to logged in users for several years.
While I wouldn't bet my life on it, I'm pretty sure I saw banners on mobile just last month, while being logged in.

Hey Ori,
I like the creative thinking :) For the fundraising that could indeed work well (although I have no numbers on what percentage of domations comes from logged in users etc), but there are also campaigns tht are quite relevant for logged in users.

This is possibly the most annoying feature of the Wikimedia projects at
the moment. You access a page. Then you start reading or editing it. And then suddenly the page jumps when a fundraising banner / central notice / gadget / beta feature loads. So you have to start reading the page again, or you have to find where you were editing again, or you have to undo the change you just made since you made it in the wrong part of the page.
Or you click "edit" and it hits the banner that suddenly popped up under your click. AAAAAAAAAAAA
One possible solution would be to exempt anyone who edits an article from being shown a banner by means of a cookie with a suitable expiry. Since only a tiny fraction of visitors edit, I would expect the impact on the WMF's bottom line to be negligible. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/ wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/ wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, mailto:wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe
