Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Updates/2022-01 for the largest wikis/fi

Desktop Improvements update and Office Hours invitation
. I wanted to give you an update about the Desktop Improvements project, which the Wikimedia Foundation Web team has been working on for the past few years.

The goals of the project are to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. The project consists of a series of feature improvements which make it easier to read and learn, navigate within the page, search, switch between languages, use article tabs and the user menu, and more.

The improvements are already visible by default for readers and editors on 24 wikis, including Wikipedias in French, Portuguese, and Persian.

The changes apply to the [ Vector] skin only. [ Monobook] or [ Timeless] users are not affected.

Ominaisuudet, jotka on otettu käyttöön viimeisimmän päivityksemme jälkeen

 * User menu - focused on making the navigation more intuitive by visually highlighting the structure of user links and their purpose.
 * Sticky header - focused on allowing access to important functionality (logging in/out, history, talk pages, etc.) without requiring people to scroll to the top of the page.

For a full list of the features the project includes, please visit our project page. We also invite you to our Updates page.

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.
