VisualEditor/Design meetings/2015-05-18

Participants: Neil Quinn, Joel Aufrecht, Daisy Chen, Abbey Ripstra

Link Inspector improvements

 * Will discuss whether the current link inspector design has satisfied requirements when Nirzar is here.


 * Design Research wants to test the link inspector (since that was skipped in last week's test) and make sure there are no usability problems
 * Ideally so that any improvements can be made before the possible rollout to the English Wikipedia.

Process and timeline for new user education improvements

 * Will discuss when Nirzar and James are here.
 * Goals and metrics for tools
 * Scope of work:
 * guided tour?
 * animated/video guide?
 * widespread text documentation updates?

Update on any other user-facing engineering work

 * Neil: not aware of anything. We may start making, within the next six months, a new Wikitext editor that uses the same design style and many of the tools (e.g. media insertion dialog) from VisualEditor.
 * Will discuss new Wikitext editor when Nirzar and James are here.
