Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Features/User menu/zh

作为桌面版改进的一个项目，我们正在尝试一种新方法来展现页面顶部的用户工具. We plan to collect these features under a single menu that will allow logged-in and logged-out users easy access to their user tools. Our goal is to make the navigation more intuitive by visually highlighting the structure of user links and their purpose.

背景
Currently, the user tools are found as links at the top of the page. This introduces confusion in our navigation hierarchy. As the links are not presented cohesively as a unit, they can create confusion for newcomers that do not know that the links are associated with individual user tools. In addition, the links take a lot of space on the screen, creating a cluttered appearance.

We plan on improving the appearance of these links with the following goals:


 * Allowing for increased clarity in the purpose of the links by visually identifying that all links are related to user-specific tools and features
 * Allowing for a decreased visual clutter and thus, a more welcoming appearance of the header of the page as a whole

用户需求

 * 读者：我想要在页面顶部看到较少链接，这会让我更专注的阅读文本.
 * 读者：我希望创建账户的通道能在页面上简洁明了的显示，能让我方便的创建账户
 * 编者：我想要快速进入我的所有用户页
 * 初学者：我希望我的用户工具能简明显示，以便我知道我能用哪些工具

功能描述及要求

 * 1) 旧版vector皮肤的所有链接将合并到一个可展开的用户菜单中
 * 2) 用户菜单必须为未登录用户和已登录用户提供不同的选项
 * 3) 新菜单不可移除旧菜单的任何链接
 * 4) 每个用户页面都必须有直接链接
 * 5) Direct links must be available when a new message is received on the user’s talk page
 * 6) The menu must allow for links added via gadgets (such as the UTC clock) or user scripts
 * 7) The menu must contain logos as well as text for each menu item, to allow for quicker identification
 * 8) The menu must work at lower resolutions down to 500px

Prototype
This prototype displays the behavior for logged-in and logged-out users of the current iteration of the user tools menu. The final design will be subject to change based on the results of the quantitative tests and qualitative feedback described below.

读者和编者的用户测试
We performed user testing with readers and editors in three different locations. The goal of this test was to indicate the ease of use of the user menu and, in particular, to determine whether the iconography used was understandable. The results of the test indicated that it was preferred to use both icons as well as text within the menu, especially for wiki-specific pages such as Sandbox and Contributions.

Prototype testing with editors and other logged-in users
In May 2021, we performed prototype testing with logged-in users across 30 wikis. Our preliminary results show that the menu itself was easy to use and participants could intuitively navigate to pages within the menu from their first try. However, some participants indicated that they would like more control over which items are shown within and outside of the menu. This is something we’re considering for further iterations of the feature.

定量测试
在初步部署之后，我们将对试点维基上用户链接使用前后的情况进行监测. 虽然我们预计用户链接会有小幅下降，但任何超过 10% 的下降都将被视为立即迭代该功能的理由.

Why doesn't the user menu show on hover?
Showing a menu on hover is not a good user interface pattern. A menu should not be triggered by hover. Only by click. It's standard in basically all interface elements we provide and Vector legacy was the exception to the rule, historically grown without design oversight. Expected by one user group, surprising to confusing by another.

More context is provided on T275681.

发佈计划
我们在2021年4月至6月期间一直致力于这些变革，并希望可以在2021年年中部署我们的第一个迭代版本. 我们默认将會在早期採用的维基中部署这些更改. 所有已登录并选择使用新体验的用户也可以使用这些更改.
