= Desktop Improvements update =  Schon gewusst?

Nach unseren letzten Ergebnissen haben sich 88% der aktiven Nutzer der 13 Pilot-Wikis dazu entschieden, die Verbesserungen beizubehalten.

Ich möchte dir ein Update des Projekts zu Desktopverbesserungen geben.

Das Web-Team der Wikimedia Foundation hat seit 2019 daran gearbeitet. Das Ziel des Projekts ist es, die Benutzeroberfläche für fortgeschrittene Nutzer nützlicher zu machen und für Leser komfortabler zu gestalten. Das Projekt besteht aus einer Serie von verbesserten Funktionen, welche es einfacher machen, Wikipediaseiten zu lesen und darüber zu lernen, innerhalb einer Seite zu navigieren, zu durchsuchen, zwischen Sprachen zu wechseln, die Artikel-Tabs und das Benutzermenü zu verwenden und weiteren.

Die Verbesserungen sind bereits auf 13 Wikis in den Standardeinstellungen für Leser und Bearbeitern sichtbar. Unter anderem in den Wikipedias auf französisch, portugiesisch und persisch.

Die Änderungen betreffen ausschließlich das [ Vector]-Design. [ Monobook] oder [ Timeless] sind davon nicht betroffen.

Bereits umgesetzte Funktionen
So far, we have deployed the following features:


 * Reconfigured logo - which will allow us to make the header sticky (fixed at the top of the screen). The sticky header will include the search, article tabs, and the user menu.
 * Collapsible sidebar - which allows to focus on the content. On some wikis, this has been a gadget.
 * Limited content width in articles and similar pages (not special pages or other pages containing logs) - which makes reading and learning easier. For more details about this change, like what we would do with the empty space or how this relates to large tables, see our FAQ.
 * Moved and improved search - which allows searching more quickly and effectively (provides pictures and descriptions of the search terms).
 * Exposed language button - which helps to notice the interlanguage links and allows to switch between the languages more often.

How we collaborate with the communities
We do not have one final vision of the interface after the deployment of all changes. Instead, we measure the impact of each change individually. In addition to that, we learn about the communities' preferences using a variety of methods. You can find all major reports on our Repository page.


 * Prior to building any feature, we performed research with readers and editors. We identified the problems with usability, and based our decisions on the findings of this research (example).
 * We also perform user research on prototypes of our proposed changes to make sure they address the identified problems (example).
 * We have run two larger-scale prototype testing rounds (first, second). In these, editors could gain an understanding of our ideas, and share what they appreciate or find confusing.
 * Shortly after the deployment of each change, we collect we collect data on how readers and editors use the changed functionality. Depending on the feature, we may divide users into two groups where only one can see the change. After the test, we compare the results and establish whether the changed interface works better.
 * Volunteers have shared feedback on talk pages. This has been taking place on the project talk page, but also on the Village Pumps.
 * In 2019 at Wikimania, we had a roundtable discussion (outcomes). We are planning to have a similar discussion this year as well.

How to enable the improvements

 * It is possible to opt-in individually in the appearance tab within the preferences by unchecking the "" box. (It has to be empty.) Also, it is possible to opt-in on all wikis using the global preferences.
 * If you think this would be good as a default for all readers and editors of this wiki, feel free to start a conversation with the community and contact me.
 * On wikis where the changes are visible by default for all, logged-in users can always opt-out to the Legacy Vector. There is an easily accessible link in the sidebar of the new Vector.
