Growth News #34

A quarterly update from the Growth team on our work to improve the new editor experience.

Mentoring new editors

In February, Mentorship was successfully rolled out to 100% of newcomers on English Wikipedia. Following this milestone, we collaborated with Spanish Wikipedia to expand Mentorship coverage to 70% of new accounts, with plans to reach 85% soon unless concerns are raised by mentors. (T394867)

“Add a Link” Task – Iteration and Experimentation

Our efforts to improve and scale the “Add a Link” structured task continued across multiple fronts:

• Community Feedback & Model Improvements: We’ve responded to community concerns with targeted changes:
  • Restricting access to newer accounts (T393688)
  • Some links types were removed to align with recommendations written in the English Wikipedia Manual of Style (T390683)
  • Allowing communities to limit “Add a Link” to newcomers (T393771)
  • The model used to suggest the links was improved to ease its training (T388258)
• English Wikipedia rollout and A/B test: We increased the rollout to 20% of newcomers, with analysis underway. Preliminary data suggests this feature makes new account holders more likely to complete an unreverted edit. (T386029, T382603)
• Surfacing Structured Tasks: An experiment where we show “add a link” suggestions to newly registered users while they are reading an article is running on pilot wikis (French, Persian, Indonesian, Portuguese, Egyptian Arabic). Initial results are under analysis. (T386029)

Newcomer Engagement Features

• “Get Started” notification: Engineering is in progress for a new notification (Echo/email) to encourage editing among newcomers with zero edits. Early research shows this type of nudge is effective. (T392256)
• Confirmation email: We are exploring ways to simplify and improve the initial account confirmation email newly registered users receive. (T215665)

Community Configuration Enhancements

Communities can now manage which namespaces are eligible for Event Registration via Community Configuration. (T385341)

Annual Planning

The Wikimedia Foundation’s 2025–2026 Annual Plan is taking shape. The Growth and Editing teams will focus on the Contributor Experiences (WE1) objective, with a focus on increasing constructive edits by editors with fewer than 100 cumulative contributions.

Get Involved

We value your insights and ideas! If you would like to participate in a discussion, share feedback, or pilot new features, please reach out on the relevant Phabricator tasks or at our talk page, in any language.

Unfinished article

This article is still in English in the end. Caro de Segeda (pakuchezgela) 19:37, 22 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

@Caro de Segeda Hi, thanks for noticing it. I will fix it. Thank you. Tumbuka Arch^★_★^★ 17:41, 23 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

New template idea

Hello, as editing articles as a non-tumbuka speaker, I have an idea for people to double-check articles, by making a new template where it states "This article needs to be reviewed by a native/level 5 speaker of Tumbuka" in order to check for spelling mistakes, or bad translation, etc.

I heard that something happened on Scottish Wikipedia, and I wouldn't like this wikipedia to also turn into also having a lot of ungrammatical articles. CubanoBoi 00:03, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

@CubanoBoi Good idea! Then these need to be posted on the Wiki side bar under Need for Review. You can create the template that we can be adding that.

Also, we need another special area for Articles for Deletion where we can be hunting for old pages and bringing them on the spot and discuss whether we need to keep or delete the pages. These pages can be found by simply pressing on random pages. Yewo chomene (Thank you/Gracias). Tumbuka Arch^★_★^★ 04:16, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

I created Template:Language review CubanoBoi 05:05, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

Template:Language review done will go into the talk page when the page is done getting reviewed. CubanoBoi 05:33, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

@CubanoBoi Green color for Done? Super awesome! And this will be great. I love what you have done there. Good job for your best idea and good job for founding/starting such templates (and idea).

Both templates are amazing. Yewo chomene!/Gracias! Tumbuka Arch^★_★^★ 17:07, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

The articles i manually put at Wikipedia:Language review CubanoBoi 17:14, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)

I also did some fixes at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/current CubanoBoi 17:21, 27 Julayi 2025 (UTC)
