Growth/Personalized first day/Structured tasks/Community feedback

Recently some contributors have expressed concerns about "add a link" and "add an image" structured tasks. Some communities find these edits a burden to patrol or have other critiques of these tasks. While the Growth team focuses on newcomers, we want to create tools that work for the community as a whole. Although the "add a link" structured task has proven to be effective at both increasing the probability that newcomers will make their first edit and return to edit again (experiment analysis), we also understand that these edits may be frustrating for other contributors.

We are listening to feedback, and planning ways we can improve Growth tools or other areas of the site to ensure our work benefits the movement as a whole. We hope to pursue some quick improvements immediately, as well as consider changes that will require more planning and coordination. This overview is a work in progress and will continue to expand as more ideas are suggested and discussed: We hope to address some quick improvements immediately, and then plan ahead for some of the larger changes. If you have any ideas that aren't listed here, or want to vocalize your support or opposition for any of these solutions, please let us know on the Discussion page.
