Bug #: 40176
Summary: URL parameter for linking to feedback form on article
pages
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ArticleFeedbackv5
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
This feature will enable users to share links to the feedback form by adding a
special parameter (e.g.: #feedback) at the end of article URLs.
Here's an example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarmac#feedback
Clicking on this link would take the user to the Tarmac article, then scroll
down to the bottom to show the feedback form. Essentially, it would work the
same way as 'Add your feedback' in the toolbox, and could even highlight the
feedback form in yellow, if that's easy to do (that highlight is not a hard
requirement).
This would make it easier to invite users to post feedback on an article by
giving them a special URL that links directly to the form, without having to
scroll all the way to the bottom of the page.
I first encountered this issue when posting on the New Yorker site to invite
their readers to comment on the Philip Roth incident for the Human Stain
article. There was no easy way for me to point them directly to the feedback
form.
