Suggested Edits Implemented on Web

  • Problem: The "suggested edit" tab is useful on mobile of Wikipedia, but it would also be incredibly useful on the web version.
  • Proposed solution: Add a "suggested edit" area into the web version, perhaps in the contributions page or something like that. More things could be added as well, such as CS1 errors in citations.
  • Who would benefit: Mostly "Gnomes" who spend a lot of time adding captions and title descriptions.
  • More comments: This does exist on the web version, but it is made specifically for newcomers, along with the fact that it has the "newcomer tag" when you look at the edit. I do believe that this should be implemented for long-time users as well who don't want to browse until they find a random problem. I think that this would further encourage and promote things like fixing CS1 errors, fixing articles that have multiple issues, etc. if it is a visible and easy-to-find section in Wikipedia.
