Central Notice admin comments[edit]

@AntonProtsiuk (WMUA): Please note that according to the centralnotice guidelines, you should notify the targeted projects of this discussion. I've drafted a banner at [1]. Please review it, and let me know. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 19:29, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Martin Urbanec: Thanks, looks good. I have posted an announcement in Ukrainian Wikipedia's Village Pump. Please also note that I have slightly changed the banner's wording; could you make this alteration? --AntonProtsiuk (WMUA) (talk) 13:13, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Certainly, just done. Please do one last check of the banner. Best, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 15:05, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an expert on banner attractiveness, but it's not obvious to me that the banner is clickable (I get a hint with a mouse-over, of course, but is it enough?). Can we/should we do something about it? -- Ата (talk) 15:23, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Martin Urbanec and Ата: Perhaps we can make only part of the text clickable (as in my draft), and it would create a clearer distinction. --AntonProtsiuk (WMUA) (talk) 22:22, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Martin Urbanec: Overall, everything is good. Could you please set up the banner (if you've not done it already)? --AntonProtsiuk (WMUA) (talk) 22:22, 30 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ата: Maybe we can add a button learn more (and still keep whole banner clickable) :-). --Martin Urbanec (talk) 14:22, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Done --Martin Urbanec (talk) 14:22, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
