Mei 2024: User testing results, beta feature usage data, and the first version of dark mode now available
User testing results
We have performed usability testing on the Appearance menu. You can see the full results here. In short: in the Appearance menu (previously: Theme menu), the typography, width, and dark mode options are placed. The goal of the testing was to determine whether the menu is easy to use, and whether the names of the different settings are intuitive to most users. From this testing we learned:
- No significant usability issues were found.
- Users generally preferred to refer to a "dark" color scheme or "night" color scheme. As a result, we have changed the name of the feature back to "dark" color scheme or dark mode for short.
- It was difficult for users to find the menu icon once collapsed. As a result, we have added a notice that informs users of where the menu has been collapsed to.
Beta feature usage data
We have been tracking the usage of the new menu as a beta feature. You can see the full results here. In short, we learned that "standard" was the most popular option to select. We also saw:
- About 55% of clicks to the new menu were for a font size that was larger than the default (either standard or large font sizes)
- The majority of the clicks, 46.7%, were for the "standard" font size.
Dark mode is now available
Dark mode is now available to logged-in users on the mobile site (Minerva skin only)! To access this feature, you must be opted into advanced mode for mobile. Then, you can select "dark" from the list of color options. (Note: "automatic" will follow the preference of your device.) See the more detailed message about this change, and go to the FAQ page to see more information about the basics of this project.
April 2024: Early access to the dark mode (mobile web, logged-in)
Halo semuanya, seperti yang sudah kami umumkan pada bulan November tahun lalu, Tim Situs Web, Yayasan Wikimedia saat ini sedang mengerjakan fitur mode gelap atau malam. Saat ini, kami meluncurkan dan menguji fitur ini untuk pengguna terdaftar dengan mode perangkat seluler di semua situs Wiki. Namun, jangan khawatir, fitur baru ini tidak akan mengganggu sistem yang sudah ada. (Baca juga mengenai "batasan umum" di bawah ini). Kami menekankan perlunya kerja sama dengan kawan-kawan komunitas semua sebelum meluncurkan fitur ini untuk kalangan yang lebih luas. Tujuan kami meluncurkan fitur ini lebih awal, yaitu:
- Menunjukkan apa yang sudah kami buat dari awal. Semakin awal terlibat, maka saran Anda akan semakin tercermin dalam versi akhir;
- Meminta bantuan Anda untuk menandai kutu (bug), masalah, dan permintaan; dan
- Bekerja sama dengan editor teknis dalam penyesuaian templat dan gawai yang berkaitan dengan mode gelap.
Silakan kunjungi halaman proyek dan tanya-jawab untuk mendapatkan lebih banyak informasi umum tentang proyek ini.
Batasan umum untuk versi awal
- Saat ini, mode gelap hanya tersedia hanya dalam mode perangkat seluler untuk pengguna terdaftar dan memilih mode lanjutan yang merupakan bagian dari fitur tambahan pilihan.
- Beberapa gawai mungkin tidak akan berfungsi dengan baik dalam model gelap dan perlu diperbaharui.
- Tujuan awal kami yaitu membuat mode gelap bisa berfungsi untuk artikel yang dibaca. Halaman khusus, pembicaraan, dan ruang nama lain belum diperbaharui untuk bisa memfungsikan mode gelap. Kami telah menonaktifkan mode gelap sementara waktu untuk beberapa halaman tersebut.
Harapan kami untuk kawan-kawan komunitas
Jangan sungkan untuk bertanya kepada kami! Bila diperlukan silakan baca halaman saran untuk kecocokan mode gelap dalam situs proyek Wikimedia yang menjelaskan tentang cara menjabarkan warna dalam kode HTML. Kami juga akan menandai halaman tersebut untuk diterjemahkan sesegera mungkin. Selain itu, kami juga ingin menekankan bahwa saran yang diberikan akan terus berkembang. Oleh karena itu, kami tidak menyarankan untuk menyalin halaman tersebut di situs Wiki lokal Anda. Untuk saat ini, salinan di situs tersebut dapat berbeda sama sekali dari versi asli.
Harapan kami untuk editor tempat, admin antarmuka, dan editor teknis
Ketika sebagian besar kutu sudah diatasi, maka kami bisa membuat mode gelap tersedia untuk para pembaca dalam mode komputer dan seluler. Supaya hal tersebut bisa diwujudkan, kami perlu bekerja sama dengan Anda dalam urusan pelaporan dan pemecahan masalah.
- Untuk mengaktifkannya, gunakan situs web seluler dan buka bagian pengaturan di menu dan pilih “mode lanjutan”, jika Anda belum memilihnya. Kemudian, pilih mode gelap. (Untuk selanjutnya, mode gelap akan diatur secara otomatis sesuai dengan pengaturan perangkat seluler).
- Selanjutnya, buka artikel lain dan temukan masalah di sana:
- Jika Anda menemukan masalah pada templat tetapi tidak tahu cara memperbaikinya
- Buka halaman saran dan temukan contoh saran yang sesuai
- Jika Anda tidak menemukan adanya saran yang sesuai atau tidak merasa yakin untuk memperbaikinya, silakan hubungi kami
- Jika Anda ingin melakukan pengawakutuan banyak templat dalam mode gelap
- Buka https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/ dan identifikasi templat yang perlu diperbaiki. Perkakas tersebut akan menandai 100 artikel teratas yang paling banyak dibaca.
- Buka halaman saran dan temukan contoh saran yang sesuai
- Jika Anda tidak menemukan adanya saran yang sesuai atau tidak merasa yakin untuk memperbaikinya, silakan hubungi kami
- Jika Anda ingin mengidentifikasi masalah yang muncul di luar 100 artikel teratas tersebut
- Pasang ekstensi peramban pengecek kekontrasan warna WCAG (Chrome, Firefox) dan kunjungi beberapa artikel. Gunakan ekstensi tersebut untuk mengidentifikasi masalah yang muncul
- Buka halaman saran dan temukan contoh saran yang sesuai
- Jika Anda tidak menemukan adanya saran yang sesuai atau tidak merasa yakin untuk memperbaikinya, silakan hubungi kami
- Jika Anda ingin melaporkan kutu kutu dalam mode gelap, tetapi tidak ada kaitannya dengan templat
- Ambil tangkapan layar Anda
- Hubungi kami. Jika memungkinkan, mohon tuliskan versi peramban dan juga sistem operasi Anda.
- Jika Anda menemukan masalah pada templat tetapi tidak tahu cara memperbaikinya
Terima kasih! Kami tunggu pendapat dan komentar Anda.
Desember 2023: A new beta feature: Accessibility for Reading (Vector 2022)
The Web team from the Wikimedia Foundation launched a new beta feature. The goal is to make reading on desktop more comfortable. The feature is only available to logged-in editors using the Vector 2022 skin. To try it out, go to the "beta" option in the user menu and select "Accessibility for Reading (Vector 2022)". You may also enable it on all wikis using the global preferences.
In the new menu, there are three text settings – small, standard, and large. Small is the current default. Large is for users who need additional increase in size. The standard setting may later become the new default. This was recommended by both the literature research and prototype testing. To this menu, we have also added the page width setting. Before, it was available in the bottom corner of the screen. Now, it's easier to find. The menu is pin-able in a similar way to the Tools and Main menus, both placed in the side columns of the desktop interface. When it's not pinned, it's displayed next to the user name.
About the above mentioned prototype testing: in October and November, we shared a prototype with 13 Wikipedia language communities. It allowed editors to experiment with different text settings, and report which configuration was most comfortable for them. We received feedback from 632 users. They were interested in changes and preferred options that fit within three size categories – small, medium, and large. You may learn more about the testing here.
We welcome you all to try the new menu. We will collect your ideas and comments to make this feature better. Please, if you have the time, check it out and give us your thoughts!
November 2023: Prototype testing results and next steps
In October and November, we shared a prototype with 13 Wikipedia language communities and received feedback from more than 600 editors and other logged-in users. The prototype allowed them to experiment with different font sizes, line height, and paragraph spacing, and report which configuration was most comfortable for them.
The majority preferred a slightly larger font size and line height than the current default (around 15 – 17px). A large group showed a strong preference for the current default (14 px), while a smaller group preferred significantly larger font sizes (20–24px). See the full results of the testing.
We learned that editors who decided to take part in the test are interested in changes. We hope that small, medium, and large options to choose between will be received positively.
In the first half of December, on all wikis, we will launch a new beta feature which allows to select the preferred typography. The feature will be opt-in and available in your user preferences. Turning it on will display a new collapsible menu in the right sidebar, which will appear under the Tools menu.
We invite you to look out for it, try it out when it becomes available, and tell us what you think. In the meantime, if you have time – read over the report linked above and take a look at the mock.
Oktober 2023: Dark mode and a prototype for readability improvements
Introduction to a new project
As the Wikimedia Foundation Web team, we are beginning a project called Accessibility for reading. The goal is to make the wikis more accessible and comfortable for reading. We are starting with the font size and typography for articles. In the next phase, we will focus on color palette customizations, such as dark mode. All these will be available for both logged-in and logged-out users as settings, on both desktop and mobile web.
This project is a consequence of the many requests from volunteers. We would like to thank everyone who has asked about this. On the technical side, dark mode is easier than the font size, but it will need more involvement from the communities. This is why we are asking you to follow our project. Watch the project page and subscribe to our newsletter.
Test out our prototype
Now, we would like to make articles easier to read and scan for casual readers. We aim for:
- Making the default font size bigger (but not too big) to improve readability
- Increasing the information density to improve scanning
- Increasing the space between paragraphs and sections to improve scanning
- Allowing readers (including logged-out users!) to customize the density of text
This will apply to articles in the reading mode and in VisualEditor, but not in the wikitext editor. We are planning these changes to apply across all the wikis. The default may vary based on the language or script of the project.
We have prepared a prototype that allows for various changes in the font size and spacing. To use the prototype, force a banner to appear and click on it. Next, try out different combinations and share what works for you. This prototype is not a reflection of the final design. Instead, we would like to learn what font sizes Wikimedians want to see across languages. We will use this data to determine the proposed default and options. Read more about the test.
