This task is about identifying the Wikipedias that will participate in the A/B test of the Edit Check (references) feature.
There are two parts to this task:
- Identifying potential wikis for inclusion in the A/B test
- Confirming with these wikis that they are comfortable participating in the A/B test
Selection requirements
This section will eventually contain the requirements the wikis participating in the A/B test will need to collectively meet.
Participating Wikis
Key:
Ready for deployment
No opposition

Per the "Edit Check Configuration" section below, we'll need to propose a set of Edit Check configuration values we'd need participating wikis to adopt. If/when we come to learn the policies/linguistic conventions at individual projects make setting the same configuration values infeasible, we'll need to name the implications on the analysis and decide if we're willing to accept the tradeoffs inherent with configuration values varying across participating wikis.
Edit Check Configuration
For the purposes of this A/B test, we're going to strive for the wikis that will participate to configure Edit Check in a consistent way. Doing so will enable us to draw wiki-agnostic conclusions about the impact(s) Edit Check causes.
