What is WMFs position on Wikiwand [1]?
There is no "official WMF position" on Wikiwand. The Wikimedia Foundation
is quite a diverse collection of individuals with a range of different
opinions. :-)
Personally, I like Wikiwand. I think there's some things they do really
well, like their table of contents on desktop, and some things that they
could improve, like the clutter of the interface on mobile devices. The
performance of their website used to be incredibly poor, so much so that it
took over a minute to load on my iPhone 4. They seem to have made quite
some strides in that area though, because I don't have this problem at all
on my Nexus 5.
I've tried contacting them a few times to share knowledge and see how we
could collaborate, but I never received any response from them.
I hope they keep improving their interface. I think it's a worthwhile
project.
Thanks,
Dan
