View it! has been expanded will have an official launch demo session edit

View it! Tool update Jan. 2023

Big news, View it! users! Over the last two months, View it! has been expanded to two versions. Our new full version shows images within the wiki content page, and the "View" tab displays a gallery of images without leaving the site you are on, as you can see at right. We have rebranded the original version, which utilizes the "View" tab to link to our Toolforge search results, to "Lite". We invite you to switch to full version and try it out! Major changes:

  • The full version includes an image carousel on each content page (at the top, under the article navigation buttons) which can be expanded for pagination.
  • You may notice the "View" button has moved to between the "Read" and "Edit" buttons - the View button is in the same place for both versions and we felt this was a better placement for editors.
  • In full version, clicking the "View" tab will take you to a full-screen gallery.

Action to take

Thank you for being a part of the View it! journey and please join us for the launch on January 12th!

As a reminder, you can view details about how to install the View it! user script or use the Toolforge tool on our meta page. Please use the talk page to contact us with comments or issues.

Upcoming Indianapolis event - January 8th: Local meetup in honor of EditingforEffie

 

Effie Kapsalis was an inspiration (and friend) to many of us. We are getting together Sunday, January 8th at 12:00pm ET at the Indianapolis Artsgarden (110 W Washington St, Indianapolis, IN 46204) to join other Wikipedians around the globe to edit in Effie's honor. Please join us to socialize, edit about women in science or other fields, and remember Effie.

Anyone is welcome to join - experienced or new Wikipedia editors, we would be happy to help get you started. We can guide you to lists if you're uncertain what to edit.

  • Sunday, January 6th: focusing on Women-in-Red campaign.
12pm–4pm (or maybe later) at the Indianapolis Artsgarden.

We hope to see you there! Sincerely, Indiana Wikimedians User Group
