Reading/Quarterly planning/Q4

Brainstorming Guidelines

 * Align with the roadmap
 * This said, it's brainstorming - be creative!
 * Some previous brainstorms: Q1 & Q2 FY 2015-2016 brainstorms, Q3 FY 2015-2016

Android

 * The Feed. (replace the current "Today" screen (Main Page) with an infinitely-scrollable feed of relevant articles based on the user's activity). DBrant (WMF) (talk) 18:10, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Model off the iOS team's implementation (card views).
 * Sort of dependent on the success of the feature in the iOS app, but very likely better than the current Main Page. Featured articles on the Main Page are disproportionately Cricket-related. That's enough with the cricket!
 * Integrate with trending articles API, when it's ready?
 * Wiktionary. DBrant (WMF) (talk) 18:42, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Expand current Wiktionary integration to more languages (currently restricted to en). Will require more server-side work to massage non-en pages.
 * Split off into its own app, and replace the current (outdated, Phonegap-based) Wiktionary app.
 * Comment splitting Wiktionary into its own app might be a step in the wrong direction. It seems to me that a single integrated app might be preferable. Is there a rationale for wanting to split off Wiktionary? --Pine ✉ 18:14, 7 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Moar Wikidata. DBrant (WMF) (talk) 18:42, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Native info windows populated from Wikidata.
 * Inline with link previews, search results?
 * Move away from hamburger menu. DBrant (WMF) (talk) 18:50, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Surface more clearly the features we want users to see.
 * Force ourselves to trim away features that are unnecessary.
 * New directions in microcontributions. DBrant (WMF) (talk) 18:42, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Engage with community of editors/admins to generate ideas for apps to handle low-hanging, repetitive administrative tasks.

 * Private multiple watchlists --ABaso (WMF) (talk) 18:02, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Integrable as general collections (reading lists) in Apps. DBrant (WMF) (talk) 17:33, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Recent discussion on (Expiring watch list entries) has included various ideas of expanding watchlist entries to include tags that could be used to expose multiple lists. There are also  (Multiple watchlists) and  (Public and private watchlists, shared watchlists) and I'm sure many other related requests for improving watchlists. This seems like an area where a suite of improvements could be designed and implemented possibly in collaboration with WMDE and other interested parties. --BDavis (WMF) (talk) 22:36, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * This proposal does not seem to be related to the roadmap. Perhaps you want to propose a change in the roadmap? Nemo 16:44, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
 * The roadmap says "global south", so let's fix known, self-contained bugs that reduce the quality of the websites for all unregistered users with limited networking or resources:    Nemo 16:43, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
 * As a stretch, let's do the same for casual users and light editors who would otherwise be forced to use the desktop site for simple activities:  Nemo 16:43, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Can we get Wiktionary integration on mobile web? --Pine ✉ 18:15, 7 February 2016 (UTC)
