Why do you ask? Unregistered readers are some kind of inferior creatures not worth of any attention? Registering an account and logging in is optional in Wikimedia. Paulo Robert Fernandez <wikigamaliel(a)gmail.com> escreveu no dia segunda, 4/05/2020 à(s) 16:27:

I am nearly always logged in, but I also quite frequently open browser windows where I am not logged in. It might have something to do with who I am and what I do. On Mon, May 4, 2020 at 5:27 PM Robert Fernandez <wikigamaliel(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Worth mentioning each time it comes up: This seems like an instance of where tracking interactions w/ a given {IP, day} or {hash of browser fingerprint+IP+daily salt} would vastly outweigh the challenges. We can support private browsing, or any kind of browsing, without creating a painful experience [which is also... not likely to result in a donation].

I couldn't figure out how to experience this feature -- can you share a screenshot?

My apologies John for my overly basic initial response. I wanted to note that regarding the banner design [1] we’ve definitely heard and taken the feedback on board as a team. Our design team discussed it on Monday and are exploring ways in which we might iterate on this in future tests. We are always sympathetic about any potential impact that fundraising campaigns have on reader experience. This is why we use tools to limit impressions seen by readers, limit traffic or campaign length, and only send a limited number of emails to past donors. Most non-profits and pretty much every other online fundraising model involves running campaigns all year around, all the time. Regarding this related issue both Sam and you brought up about the use of cookies in Central Notice and exploring the usage of hash id’s. It’s an interesting idea but certainly one fraught with potential public misconceptions along with ethical and technical challenges. Even with navigating those I’m not sure Fundraising is really the team to take a lead on this kind of device fingerprinting within MediaWiki and falls well outside our team’s area of responsibility and expertise. There are also big changes expected in the way browsers provide the necessary information so we are going to need to see how this comes out in the wash. Either way, we’ve created a phabricator ticket to facilitate future discussion about this topic.[2] Thanks again for your recommendation. Please do continue to leave any feedback, ideas, or questions on the fundraising talk page.[3] Best wishes, Nick [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=NASA&banner=B1920_0331_enWW_… [2] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T252123 [3] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fundraising On Tue, May 5, 2020 at 2:32 PM John Erling Blad <jeblad(a)gmail.com> wrote: -- Nick "Quiddity" Wilson (he/him) Community Relations Specialist Wikimedia Foundation
