Como parte do projeto de Melhorias da Área de Trabalho, estamos introduzindo um novo cabeçalho.


 * 1) A primeira iteração deste cabeçalho inclui uma logo modificada, com um tamanho reduzido (entretanto, o título e slogan permanecem no mesmo tamanho de antes).
 * 2) No futuro, iremos explorar a ideia de manter o cabeçalho "fixo", ou seja, acessível mesmo após rolar a página para baixo. Isto permitirá que os leitores e editores tenham acesso a funcionalidades importantes, tais como edição da página toda ou ver as páginas de discussão ou histórico, sem precisarem rolar a página de volta para o topo.

Plano de lançamento
Começamos a implantação da primeira versão em maio de 2020 nas wikis da Fundação e de testes, e pretendemos passar para as wikis de participação antecipada nos próximos meses. Veja nossa página principal de recursos para mais detalhes.

Descrição do recurso e requisitos
A primeira versão do cabeçalho consiste de um novo logo. A reconfiguração do logo permitirá que adicionemos mais funcionalidades no futuro, como o cabeçalho fixo que mencionamos acima, assim como acesso fácil à barra lateral dobrável.

The approach we took was to separate the logo into three components - the logo itself, the wordmark (the stylized name of the wiki), and the tagline (the text that site beneath the logo, for example “the free encyclopedia” for Wikipedia). This allows increased flexibility when defining logos both for this project, as well as for future WMF and community initiatives.

Visually, the logos will appear in a horizontal layout, with the logo to the left, and the wordmark and tagline immediately to the right of it (see mockup below).

Design requirements and guidelines
The current design will feature the logo in a different configuration, as can be seen below:

We will also be publishing detailed logo creation guidelines soon.

Constraints
The new header and logo setup introduces different constraints than were seen before. In particular:


 * The new logos will be image tags. This means that caching will need to be taken into account when changing any logos - i.e. the updated logos might take a few days to propagate throughout a wiki.
 * The new logos will be served as SVGs. No PNG fallbacks will be available. This means that for browsers that do not have JavaScript, the logos will be displayed as text only.
 * Read detailed guidelines on configuring logos.

User testing
We performed prototype testing with editors on a variety of wikis. This test included the new version of the header. The majority of users reported positive to neutral experiences to the new header and logo configuration. However, about 18 of the 226 editors tested (about 8%) expressed concerns with the size of the logo. The main concern stated was that the new configuration of the logo would not be as prominent and memorable as the current configuration. We share some of these concerns and will continue gathering feedback once the change is live on some of the production wikis.

We also believe that any effect this might have will be lessened once a persistent (sticky) header is introduced. Our current plan for the persistent header is to include the full or partial version of the logo throughout the reading experience, in addition to access to other functionality.

That said, we have explored other ways of making the logo more prominent - including centering it in the middle of the header, as can be seen in this prototype. Based on the feedback received from the test wikis, we will determine whether this is a direction we want explore more in the future:

Quantitative testing
As the current header changes are visual-only, we will not be performing any direct quantitative testing for this change. However, we will be monitoring important metrics such as account creation and pageview to note any overall effects.
