Forum:Wiki Modernization testing

Hey everyone. I'm Brandon from Fandom's Community team. You may have seen our blog post last week about Wiki Modernization, and how we are testing the use of videos to help create a better user and advertising experience on Fandom. We'd like your help in doing that.

We'd like to run tests around featured video placement and modernized article styles on Call of Duty Wiki so we can gather data and user feedback. This will help us create the best product possible and provide a much more modernized and overall better user experience. Callofduty4 and Crazy sam10, who I talked to in the Community Council, said they were open to this but they suggested I talk to you all as well.

Here is how you can help us with that test:


 * We would like your permission to run video tests on up to 10 article pages, using placement options like the one on Harry Potter Wiki: List of spells, Newt Scamander, Gellert Grindelwald, and Hogwarts Houses.
 * We would like your permission to run tests around changed article styles, like the navigation menu, across the whole wiki.
 * Tests will change throughout the process and adjust as we learn more.
 * Give us feedback any time in the process!

Does anyone have any objections to running these tests here? Let me know if you have any questions. I'm happy to answer them. - Brandon Rhea (talk) 19:32, March 10, 2017 (UTC)
