Of course. But I wasn't expecting a turn up on
English Wikipedia yet.
I'm asking why the 25 lines of configuration that EnWP specified have
not yet been added to the test wiki at
http://flaggedrevs.labs.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
I'll review the current state of the prototype w/ Brion this week and
whatever needs to be done to get broader testing will get done ASAP.
and we're
also concerned about the potential negative impact on
participation.
Please help me understand the implications of this statement.
It simply means that
a) we want to make sure that for the production roll-out, the user
interface is not insane and appropriate to the specific en.wp
configuration that's been proposed;
b) we'll want to track participation metrics after the roll-out to see
what the impact of this technology is.
Accusations of "obstructionism" don't help; I understand where these
come from, but it's a massive case of assume bad faith. Please stop
it.
