Bug #: 38819
Summary: Feedback link on article pages
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal

Component: ArticleFeedbackv5

This feature enables users to access the feedback page from article pages.
See feature requirements page: (excerpted below)
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Article_feedback/Version_5/Feature_Requirements#Feedback_link_on_articles
Rationale
This type of feature has been requested by a number of community editors. They
are looking for a quick way to access the feedback page from the article page,
without having to go through the circuitous route of first clicking on the talk
page, finding the link to the feedback page, then clicking on it to see
feedback about the article. Our team would prefer a prominent placement like a
'Feedback' tab, but we will need significant community support to implement
this feature. For now, we need a way to make the feedback page discoverable on
the article pages, even if it's very discrete.
Link
The easiest way to accomplish this with limited resources is to add a link in
the Toolbox on the left sidebar. While this is a very low traffic area, it will
give us a first touchpoint that people in the know can use on the article page,
until we get buy-in for more prominent placement.
This link will be shown at all times to all readers and editors, if possible:
View feedback
This would be shown as the last item in the toolbox, right below 'Improve this
page'. That next-to-last link will be renamed to 'Add your feedback' (instead
of 'Improve this page', which is unclear); this link lets you post feedback,
scrolling down to the bottom of the article and highlighting the feedback form.
Functions
Clicking on 'View feedback' will take you to the feedback page.
