Media Viewer is a new feature under development that aims to improve the multimedia viewing experience on Misplaced Pages and its sister sites. This multimedia browser displays images in larger size and with less clutter, providing a more immersive user experience, as described here. It was developed in collaboration with many community members around the world -- including over 12,000 beta users here on English Misplaced Pages, who have been testing it since November 2013. The current plan is to gradually release this tool in coming weeks -- starting with a few pilot tests in April, followed by wider deployments in May, as described in this release plan.
Can you share your feedback about this tool, to help address any critical issues before its release? To try it out, log in on this site and click on the small 'Beta' link next to 'Preferences' in your personal menu. Then check the box next to 'Media Viewer' in the Beta Features section of your user preferences — and click 'Save'. Now, click on any thumbnail image on this site to see it in the Media Viewer.

Pictures of the year 2013Note that it takes about two weeks for new improvements to be deployed on English Misplaced Pages. To test the latest features, you can also use this test page on MediaWiki.org -- or if you are feeling adventurous, try this beta site, which is the most current, but slower and less stable. |
