Wiki Modernization Overview

Reducing the Number of Ads


 * Beginning in May we will be running tests to reduce the number of ads on FANDOM.
 * The goal is for every page on FANDOM to have fewer ads than they do now.
 * That way, page performance is better.
 * Pages with Wiki Videos will have even fewer ads than pages without.

Featured Wiki Videos


 * Wiki Videos are about the subject of the page, on-topic, and relevant.
 * Wiki Videos are placed near the top of article pages (examples: Alec Ryder, Newt Scamander).
 * Wiki Videos also appear on mobile web.
 * Putting ads in front of Wiki Videos helps us to declutter the ad experience.
 * Videos will auto-play (not auto-sound) and will minimize while scrolling.
 * There are different types of videos created by FANDOM staff, often based on input from or a script created by the community.
 * We are introducing Wiki Videos on our top wikis, and starting conversations with each community beforehand.

Page + Article Header Redesign


 * We tested a redesigned page and article headers on several communities.
 * The logged in and logged out versions will have slight differences because these two groups of users have different needs.
 * The final product is planned for release the week of June 12th.

Right Rail Redesign


 * We released modernized versions of key right rail modules.
 * More modules will be modernized soon.
