Fyi, mobile team :)

@tomasz: If you would like to see this on your desktop: It's available as a 
Beta Feature called "Hovercards", see: 
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Beta_Features/Hovercards
And on mobile in alpha mode: Tap the hamburger menu (3 lines on the top left), 
click settings and enable the beta mode. Save and do it again and enable 
experimental mode now. After that you can swipe on an internal link from left 
to right (or vice versa) and you see a preview :)

Thanks for your great Feedback!

Best,
Florian

Betreff: [Wikitech-l] Showing article information on tap in Wikipedia mobile 
app (a thank you)

Hi!
So I'm just going through the latest Wikimedia Foundation quarterly report, and 
I stumbled on a short passage that mentions a feature of the mobile Wikipedia 
app that I really, really enjoy using.

The ability to view a link preview when clicking on an article link inside the 
app is just fantastic.  Not only does it save time when you only need to 
quickly look up a fact, but the way that the app does it is elegant and fast.

I'm using the alpha version of the app on an Android 5.1 smartphone, and the 
report says it's also in the beta version, but I do hope it will be added to 
the stable app too :-)

So, to cut a long story short: a huge thank you and please-keep-it-up to the 
mobile team for implementing this handy little feature :-)
