Talk:List of experiments in Product and Technology

Discuss button, talk page vs Phab

As the "Discuss" button may point to either a talk page or a Phabricator page, which might be a bit of an easter egg for editors less familiar with the latter, could it be helpful to label the buttons (something like "Discuss" and "Discuss on Phab")? And, for projects with both a talk page and a Phab page, would it be relevant to have both buttons for editors more comfortable with one or the other (or editors wanting to browse both discussions)?

Also, would it be possible to use {{Clickable button 2|class=mw-ui-progressive}} for a more consistent button design? My previous mockup at User:Chaotic Enby/List of experiments in Product and Technology (which seems to have been partially implemented) could be a reference point if needed.

It looks like this!

Hi @Chaotic Enby! Thank you for working on this. I agree on the consistency of the button design, we can definitely go ahead and use it from now on. I'm fairly bad a templates but can figure that one out. As for the Discuss vs Discuss on Phab, I'll bring it up with folks helping maintain this and will follow up here.

By the way, I really like the overview table in your mock up (the one with colors). I feel like it makes the readability better, will report back on this too! KHernandez-WMF (talk) 22:13, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! Looking forward for further updates! Chaotic Enby (talk) 22:20, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Chaotic Enby, I just updated the tables to use your colors, I really liked that idea! Thanks for making it happen. EBlackorby-WMF (talk) 19:21, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

You're welcome @EBlackorby-WMF! Now that I think about it, maybe the purple could be slightly lighter so purple links are still readable on it? Chaotic Enby (talk) 19:28, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

Good idea! How does that look now @Chaotic Enby? EBlackorby-WMF (talk) 19:30, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

Very neat! Chaotic Enby (talk) 19:33, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

Simplified syntax

I've made {{Experiment list row}} to simplify the syntax and make it more readable, adding some level of modularity to the list (cf. my second mockup at User:Chaotic Enby/List of experiments in Product and Technology 2 for the implementation), would folks be interested?

Archiving

@EBlackorby-WMF/@KHernandez-WMF Thoughts on putting the experiments in a archive page instead of outright removing it :) (cf. [1]) Sohom (talk) 19:43, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Yes, we should definitely do this! Will think about the best way going forward and loop back. EBlackorby-WMF (talk) 20:04, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
