Beta Features/About/ja







ベータ版機能へようこそ. これは新機能が一般にリリースされる前に、ウィキペディアや他のウィキサイトで新機能をテストすることができる新しいプログラムです．

ベータ版機能プログラムにより、開発者は多数の利用者が使用できる環境に新しいソフトウェアを公開し、それを改善するためのフィードバックを得ることができます. 予定されている変更をコミュニティに属する人々が先取りして試し、デザイナーや技術者による改善を助けるための、電子的な実験室だと思ってください.

初期機能
次の週に試そうとしている最初のベータ版機能は下記のとおりです.


 * Media Viewer:このツールを使うとマルチメディアファイルが見やすくなります. Media Viewer は、サムネイルのあるページで画像をより大きくして見られるようにします. 画像は「Lightbox」形式で見やすく重なるように表示され、さらに最大サイズでも見ることができます. この機能についての議論はこちら.


 * Typography Refresh:This beta feature makes text more readable, accessible and consistent. It updates the Vector skin to use 'serif' fonts in section headings and 'sans serif' fonts in the body copy, for a better visual experience. Discuss this feature.


 * VisualEditor:VisualEditor makes it easy to edit pages without having to learn wiki code. Beta Features will include an opt-in version of this tool on sites where it is available but not enabled by default. We're also adding new experimental features that enhance VisualEditor (see below). Discuss this feature.


 * VisualEditor Formulæ:With this opt-in feature, you can add support inside VisualEditor for creating and editing mathematical formulæ like algebra or equations on pages you're working on. Discuss this feature.

Helping
Can you help us test Beta Features in coming days? Our first features are now available for early testing by logged-in users on TestWiki and on MediaWiki.org.

新機能を試すには、ベータ版機能用の新しいセクションで有効にしたいものをチェックして、「保存」(Save)をクリックしてください（スクリーンショットもご覧ください）. 新しいベータ版機能がリリースされるたびに自動的に有効にすることもできますし、どの部分もいつでも無効にできます. 11月はじめの全世界リリースの際には、これを見つけやすいようにするため、「ベータ」(Beta) のリンクが「個人設定」(Preferences) のとなりに出ます.

Try out Beta Features and let us know what you think of this program in the comments below, or on this discussion page. You can also comment on each feature's discussion page (see links above and on your Beta Features preferences page). If you find any technical bugs, please report them here. For technical documentation, visit the BetaFeatures extension page.

Based on your feedback, we plan to release Beta Features on Commons and MetaWiki on Thursday, 7 November, 2013. To discuss this project with our team after that release, we invite you to join our two IRC office hours chat on Friday, 8 November, 2013. After testing and improving Beta Features for a couple weeks on these three sites, we plan to release this project on on all wikis worldwide on Thursday, 21 November, 2013.

Beta Features was created by the Wikimedia Foundation's Design team and developed by the Multimedia team, in collaboration with the VisualEditor team. These and other teams will be adding more features every few weeks, going forward. We also invite community developers to start testing their new improvements in Beta Features in coming weeks by working closely with WMF designers and engineers. To prepare a new Beta Feature, read these helpful tips, check this technical documentation and post your submission on the queue for new Beta Features.

謝辞
Beta Features was brought to you by many Wikimedia Foundation team members, including: Fabrice Florin, James Forrester, Mark Holmquist, Jared Zimmerman, Jon Robson, Ed Sanders, Gergő Tisza, Bryan Davis, May Galloway, Keegan Peterzell, Maggie Dennis, Quim Gil, Erik Moeller, Howie Fung, Rob Lanphier, and Tomasz Finc, to name but a few. We're also grateful to all the community and team members who helped create this system — and look forward to many more productive collaborations in the future.
