Sub-referencing: User testing

Apologies for crossposting

Hi I'm Johannes from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes team. We are making great strides with the new sub-referencing feature and we’d love to invite you to take part in two activities to help us move this work further:

1. Try it out and share your feedback

   Please try the updated wikitext feature on the beta wiki and let us know what you think, either on our talk page or by booking a call with our UX researcher.

2. Get a sneak peak and help shape the Visual Editor user designs

   Help us test the new design prototypes by participating in user sessions – sign up here to receive an invite. We're especially hoping to speak with people from underrepresented and diverse groups to get different perspectives. If that's you, please consider signing up! No prior or extensive editing experience is required. User sessions will start May 14th.

We plan to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We’ll reach out to wikis for piloting in time for deployments. Creators and maintainers of reference-related tools and templates will be contacted beforehand as well.

Thank you very much for your support and encouragement so far in helping bring this feature to life Johannes Richter (WMDE) (talk) 15:24, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

RfC at Adult human female

There is an RfC at Talk:Adult human female § The rhetorical question "what is a woman?" which may interest this project. The question is whether or not the article should introduce "What is a woman?" as a rhetorical question. Golikom (talk) 09:13, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

I'm struggling a bit with my review of the DYK nomination for Wang Yungui and I'm not sure what to do. I would appreciate your feedback or suggestions. – Editør (talk) 18:26, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
