Review work of previous week and demo it[edit]
10-15 minutes
Demoable new things:
- Metadata panel easier to find now
- UploadWizard PASSES JSHINT WOOOOO
As expected and desired, we're not doing as much feature development and it's mostly bugfixes behind the scenes and tech debt payback. Good job y'all.
Metrics + Community[edit]
Review high priority bugs/issues that need attention[edit]
5-10 minutes as needed
Media Viewer[edit]
New approach for helping users view and download original files - new tickets need to be estimated and prioritized: Open 'Use this file' panel on hover (#662) Put "Download" as the first tab of the "use" panel (#665) Make "preview" shortcut more meaningful (#664) Remember the last selection of the reuse menu (share, embed or download) (#660) Keep the reuse menu open when switching between files (#661) Keep the metadata panel position when switching between files (#501)
Related: No way to download original file when the thumbnails have a different file type (#470) (related bug we should address anyway) Show attribution credits in download tool (#598) Show larger Commons icon (#583)
Upload Wizard[edit]
- https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46741 UploadWizard unable to recover from warnings
forces people to use the old upload interface for various basic things like reuploading deleted files

- Keep inviiting great contributors like Brian and Neil to work with us

- Remove 'design needed' tags when no new design is needed for a card
- Change card status when a task has been completed
