B test for the Reply tool (2dez2020)

Hello. Ajude a traduzir para a sua língua, por favor.

The mw:Editing team is building the Reply tool. This new tool was requested during the mw:Talk pages consultation 2019. If you want, you can turn it on now at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures.

The Editing team would like to test the tool. They want to study whether it works better, especially for new editors. In the test, they will turn on the Reply tool for half of editors sometime during the week of 14 December 2020. They will not change preferences for the other editors. You will still be able to turn it on or off yourself in Special:Preferences.

The test will run for several weeks. The results will be posted at mw:Talk pages project/replying#Metrics in late January or February. The test results will help Wikipedia editors and the Editing team decide whether the tool should be turned on for everyone.

If your Wikipedia does not want to participate in this test, please contact me as soon as possible. Thank you. Whatamidoing (WMF) (discussão) 22h34min de 2 de dezembro de 2020 (UTC)[responder]

"The test results will help Wikipedia editors and the Editing team decide whether the tool should be turned on for everyone."

@Whatamidoing (WMF), I have been using this tool myself, like I am using right now to reply to you, and I don't see any reason for it not being enabled on half the editors, and later all the editors. It's a really nice tool that works smoothly. Mister Sanderson (discussão) 01h08min de 3 de dezembro de 2020 (UTC)[responder]

A stupid, but necessary question, @Whatamidoing (WMF): when you say "In the test, they will turn on the Reply tool for half of editors sometime during the week of 14 December 2020.", you mean active editors, of course, right? There isn't any sense in activating it for a huger number of editors that will never even log in during the test. Mister Sanderson (discussão) 01h11min de 3 de dezembro de 2020 (UTC)[responder]

I think that the A/B test system checks an id number for each account. I'm not sure that it has any effect on accounts that aren't editing. Also, I think (but I might be wrong) that it only happens for registered editors, and not logged-out/IP editors. Whatamidoing (WMF) (discussão) 18h40min de 3 de dezembro de 2020 (UTC)[responder]

Update: The test will start in January 2021 instead. Thank you for your understanding, Whatamidoing (WMF) (discussão) 17h46min de 18 de dezembro de 2020 (UTC)[responder]

This test is (finally!) starting today. Thank you for your patience. Whatamidoing (WMF) (discussão) 21h23min de 12 de fevereiro de 2021 (UTC)[responder]
