Talk:Wikimedia Apps/Team/25th Birthday Reading Challenge

This looks amazing!

Genuinely so happy to see this feature, especially with a personable mascot like Baby Globe on it! The editor community is something we've often focused on, but I'd love to see this become the foundation for a reader community. I hope this stays a feature beyond the 25th birthday-specific event! A very fun addition could be something like custom reading challenges that readers can make and share with each other! Chaotic Enby (talk) 22:05, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

Maybe we could even have community driven ones "read a DYK for the next X days" (for enwiki) would be a fun one? Sohom (talk) 22:23, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

Thank you, @Chaotic Enby!

It’s encouraging to see interest in The Reading Challenge which is currently a short-term experiment, and part of its purpose is to understand how we might better support sustained reader engagement over time.

The idea of custom, shareable reading challenges is also an interesting direction, especially in the context of fostering more community-driven reading experiences. Thanks again for taking the time to share this. ARamadan-WMF (talk) 16:40, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

القراءة موضوع شيق

من الأفضل إضافة اللغة العربية. لتكون لكم بصمة في إعادة شغف القراءة. إلى الأجيال السالفة. والاجيال اللاحقة. للمتحدثين بالعربية. إن شاء الله. LABANAT (talk) 04:39, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

أهلا بك!

هل تقصد إضافة اللغة العربية إلى تحدي القراءة؟

إذا كان هذا ما تقصده، فإن تحدي القراءة يعمل بالفعل عند قراءة المقالات باللغة العربية، ويتم احتساب الأيام التي تقرأ فيها مقالات عربية ضمن التحدي.

إذا كنت تقصد شيئًا آخر بخصوص إضافة اللغة العربية، فيُرجى توضيح ذلك .

شكرا جزيلا. ARamadan-WMF (talk) 07:14, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

..., tap on the widget to open the prizes screen - and then?

"What are the prizes?

The prize is a 15% discount to the Wikipedia Store. [...]

How can I access the prizes?

Once you have reached 25 days, tap on the widget to open the prizes screen."

Ok so I have reached (on an iPad, WP Germany). I tapped. "Sichere dir 15% Rabatt im Shop" - I tapped. Wikipedia Store appears. (No discount code appearing anywhere, at least I have not seen one. Should have appeared one?)

I "do not get it" how to benefit at the Wikipedia Store. Do I need to have an account there? (If so, is that supposed to be a different account from my regular WP account?)

Thank you --Kraschnaut (talk) 10:13, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Oops. The moment I checked another time just after writing the topic, now there is a discount code. Okay. Problem solved. --Kraschnaut (talk) 10:16, 11 June 2026 (UTC)
