 Bienvenue sur la douzième infolettre de l’équipe Croissance !

L’objectif de l’équipe Croissance est de travailler sur des changements logiciels pour aider à retenir de nouveaux contributeurs dans les projets Wikimédia de taille moyenne.

Actualités générales

 * Une formation des parrains a été publiée. La formation a d’abord été testé par la communauté tchèque et s’est bien passée.
 * Les dispositifs de l’équipe Croissance ont été déployés sur les Wikipédia en hongrois, en ukrainien et en arménien. Si votre communauté a envie d’accueillir des nouveaux, nous vous encourageons à nous contacter afin que nous puissions vérifier ensemble si votre wiki est éligible. Ensuite, rendez-vous sur la liste de contrôle pour commencer le processus de configuration des fonctions.

Modifications productives à partir des tâches des nouveaux
We deployed the basic workflow for newcomer tasks to our target wikis on November 20, and the early results are exciting.




 * About 1.5% of newcomers who visit their homepage complete the workflow and save a suggested edit. So far, this has amounted to over 450 edits, on all wikis, coming from both desktop and mobile users.
 * When we look at the edits that newcomers make, we see that they are largely positive! We are pleased to see that this feature does not appear to encourage vandals.
 * 75% of the edits are productive and unreverted.
 * 95% of the edits appear to be in good faith.
 * Most of the edits include copyedits and adding links, with some newcomers also adding content and references. Copyedits are suggested most strongly.
 * Click here to learn more specifics about the results so far.

Topic matching deployed
The results from our user tests showed us that newcomers are likely to do more suggested edits if they can choose articles related to a topic that they're interested in, such as "science", "music", or "sports".


 * On January 21, we deployed topic matching on our pilot wikis. Newcomers are now using it. We expect it to cause more newcomers to try suggested edits, and to keep making more of them.
 * In the coming weeks, we will be making improvements to the accuracy of the algorithm used to topic matching, which is part of the ORES project.

Next steps for newcomer tasks
Because we are seeing positive results from newcomer tasks, the Growth team plans to concentrate our efforts on improving the workflow and encouraging more newcomers to use it.


 * Guidance: next, we will be using the help panel to provide guidance to newcomers as they do suggested edits, and to prompt them to do another edit after completing their first one. In user tests for this feature, demo videos were one of the favorite features, and we will think about how these might be added.
 * Starting the workflow: only about 20% of newcomer who visit their homepage begin the newcomer tasks workflow. We are going to be trying out different layouts of the homepage to encourage more newcomers to try newcomer tasks.
 * Additional task types: we are researching methods to recommend more specific tasks to newcomers, such as specific links to add, or images that could be added to articles from Commons.
