[Wikimedia-l] Banners are too bright, too long

[Samuel Klein]

Thanks for the detailed thoughts, Zack!

Did we run banners on the sister projects as well?
It would also be great to experiment with running targeted banner messages
and presentations on the sister projects, particularly Commons and
Wiktionary, to see what the visitor response is like. We've certainly had
some good suggested designs in the past.

As you say, readers love discovering that we're a non-profit and how we
run.  This is one of our opportunities each year to rejoice in the work of
the projects, get feedback, and hold a large-scale barnraising for the
coming year's work.  It's good to reduce the total amount of time people
see banners on the projects, but also a very positive thing for all
projects to take part.
