Re: [Wikitech-ambassadors] Hovercards - Request for feedback and volunteer-wikis

The Hovercards Beta Feature [1] is inspired by the Navigation Popups gadget. The goal of Hovercards is to make the reading experience better for our readers. When readers hover over links to other articles, they are provided a short summary and image. They can decide whether they need to visit that subject more fully before continuing the current subject. We are looking for local project wikis who are interested in turning on the Hovercards feature for all readers, ahead of the future Beta Feature graduation. Please let us know, if your wiki might be interested in this. We're also looking for additional feedback on all aspects of the extension.[2] - [1] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Beta_Features/Hovercards [2] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Beta_Features/Hovercards Sidenotes: * The recent flickering-bug (primarily in Firefox) was fixed today. * There is a gerrit patch which is examining the conflict of Navigation Popups and Hovercards. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120188/ * We also plan to suggest some potential updates to the styles in the original Navpopups gadget, so that it has better usability and is visually consistent with Hovercard and Reference-tooltip styles. -- Quiddity Community Liaison _______________________________________________ Wikitech-ambassadors mailing list Wikitech-ambassadors(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-ambassadors
