背景
ウィキペディアのコミュニティが成長し進化し続ける中で、利用者のニーズや要望に耳を傾け、それに応えることは非常に重要です. その中で、多くの利用者に共感していただいたのが、ウィキペディア アプリにウォッチリスト機能を搭載することです. The Android app added the Watchlist feature in 2021 and improved it in 2022. This year we will bring Watchlist to iOS. この機能により、利用者は気になる記事をリストとして管理でき、その変更や編集を容易に把握できます.



目的
私たちの主な目的は、ウィキペディアの iOS アプリで、利用者がウォッチリストに保存することで記事の変更を追跡し、変更の巻き戻しや差し戻しをできるようにすることです. They will also have access to undo, thank, and rollback actions.

仮説
経験豊富な編集による編集を増やしていくことになると考えています. We also believe we will increase edits from experienced editors that are infrequent app editors in the US and Canada making the share of edits from this region more comparable with pageviews and installs. 利用者がウォッチリスト機能を使うことで、ウィキペディアでの荒らし行為をより早く軽減できるようになると考えています.



仮説の検証
以下の成長ターゲット地域における iOS アプリのデータ インをモニタリングすることで、仮説を検証していきます:


 * 北西ヨーロッパ (イギリスとアイルランド、北部ドイツ、デンマーク、スウェーデン、ノルウェー、オランダ、北部フランス、ベルギー)
 * アメリカとカナダ

北西ヨーロッパは、インストールに比べて、編集回数が多いという理由で選ばれました. We believe we can enable editors in this region to edit more by enhancing their watchlist experience and making it easier for them to track and monitor articles of interest. The US & Canada was selected based on data that shows disproportionately low edits compared to high pageviews and active installs. We believe we can increase the number of editors to be more proportionate to the number of active installs.

Key Performance Indicators

 * Increase in edits from experienced editors in Northern and Western Europe
 * 10% increase in edit activity from US and Canada
 * 10% higher completion rate with undo and revert than web
 * 60% of users that engage with watchlist feature report it helping them mitigate vandalism faster and overall satisfaction with feature

Additionally, when we will conduct usability testing, we will look for a diverse group of users to ensure the functionality is used by people from a wide variety of groups. In addition to primary languages spoken in this region, we will be hoping to include testers that speak Spanish, Chinese & Punjabi.

We are also hoping to diversify the age groups, visual abilities, handedness and genders.

Why Native Implementation Matters
The Watchlist feature being native is important for several reasons:


 * 1) Mobile-first experience - Native integration allows users to remain in the app for contributions and access their watchlist offline, ensuring a seamless experience.
 * 2)  Accessibility - A native implementation ensures that the feature adheres to the user's font/theme settings, supports offline access, and is compatible with screen readers.
 * 3)  Personalization and customization - Users can personalize their watchlist experience through theming and other customization options.
 * 4) Innovation -  A native watchlist feature supports multilingual feeds, allowing users to follow articles in multiple languages.
 * 5)  Safety -  Native implementation helps mitigate vandalism by providing tools to monitor and report suspicious activity.
 * 6) Continuity - Users can benefit from features like filters, watchlist expiry, and a count of articles being watched, ensuring consistency across platforms
