kenan wang <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #2 from kenan wang <[email protected]> --- Certainly anonymous editing is important to the community and to wikipedia, but as stated in bug 52442 we are making a choice currently to not allow anonymous editing on mobile. Adding copy to inform users about this is confusing for the majority of users who want to make a clear decision on whether or not to log in. "You must be logged in to edit pages on mobile" is the current copy. That seems to capture the critical information for the user namely that: 1) They currently are not logged in 2) In order to edit on mobile they need to log in It is stated in copy that is active and positive, giving them clear information to make a decision on whether to log in or not. In this case we are purposefully presenting them with a simple binary decision. Theoretically they could make the choice to not log in and make their edit on desktop but this is not a choice that we believe many users will make and thus it is not a choice that we want to highlight with important screen and attention real estate. However, the topic of anonymous editing is an important one that will be revisited as mobile editing becomes more and more mature. In order to get to that point of maturity we need to first nail down the core workflows: in this case taking an editor through account login or account creation and making an edit. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
