Bug ID: 44482
Summary: Disable tooltip pointing to MoodBar (for now)
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: MoodBar
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected],

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
After discussion with members of the product team (Brandon, Munaf, Dario, etc.)
it's clear we need to tone down the call-to-action driving users to MoodBar,
for the following reasons...
* We know that a large portion of people clicking the Edit button for the first
time do not hit Save. This is for a variety of reasons, including everything
from scary wikitext to simply not finding the save button. In order to reduce
distractions, this tooltip needs to go away, at least until after we figure out
a more ideal time to display it than when a user has elected to click Edit.
* As a subset of the above problem, the tooltip conflicts with the guided tour
we are about to enable for English Wikipedia users taking part in
Special:GettingStarted tasks.
* The orange tooltip style is extremely loud and is out of sync with other
tooltip styles currently or planned to be in use. It needs to be redesigned.
* Responses to MoodBar posts is extremely low at the moment. (See:
http://toolserver.org/~DarTar/fd/) We should figure out how to help community
members find and respond to posts on Special:FeedbackDashboard more
consistently, and quit driving so many new users to a place where they aren't
going to get a response.
