Hi everyone, I just reviewed the work on wrapping up disambiguation and page issues into buttons in the interface. I think we need to iterate more before it's ready.
Some thoughts on page issues: - The "Page issues" dialogue that's opened up is a little bit large. Ideally it'd be pretty much full screen, but there'd be just enough space around the edges that I can tap outside it to close it without having to resort to using the back button. - Having just an icon is confusing for page issues. It's not clear what a little blue flag means. Let's put "Page issues" next to the icon inside the button. Some thoughts on similar titles: - The copy of "Similar titles" is ambiguous and doesn't adequately convey the interaction that results from pressing it. I know we want to keep it short, but right now it's not getting the point across. - The interaction of the button itself also proved to be a little problematic. When I place myself in the shoes of the user, and tap it with curiosity, I'm flung to another page and I'm not really sure what happened. It's quite jarring. It's not easy for me to connect "X (Disambiguation)" with the "Similar titles" button I pressed. Generally: - The colouring of the buttons, in blue, makes them really stand out. The colouring of the rest of the interface there, in black, really brings those buttons to the foreground. I think this has made them too prominent. These points are mostly raising more questions than they're answering, so we'll still need to figure out solutions to the points. Overall, I like the direction we're going with these features. They're really bringing the content to the forefront of the experience. But they're not quite ready yet. Let's keep iterating. :-) Thanks, Dan -- Dan Garry Associate Product Manager, Mobile Apps Wikimedia Foundation
