Hello there!

This week had some exciting developments for the Unified Community Platform, so let's dive right in...

Mobile Editor

The Mobile Editor is now LIVE on all UCP wikis! It features both Visual and Source modes. We already have logged the feedback that folks would like Syntax Highlighting on the Source mode.

Mobile Editing is a big feature of UCP that super-serves out non-English speaking userbase. Non-EN users are more likely to be mobile primary than their EN counterparts. For instance, 67% of Spanish speaking wiki users are mobile primary, making the emergence of mobile editing a significant boon to them.

Additionally, a survey of over 2,000 Gamepedia editors last year revealed that 34% of them got their start on mobile, so mobile editing is a fantastic opportunity for new editor growth on Fandom.

Feel free to check it out on one of the wikis linked on the page above or on Wreck It Woodhouse!

DPL

The Dynamic Page List extension is now installed on the UCP and available for use (on wikis which choose to enable it)!

Fixes

The bug causing local edit count and global edit count to get confused on UCP profiles is now fixed.

Notifications dropdown layout bug is fixed.

Email confirmation status is now correctly synced between legacy and UCP.

Changing your email on UCP no longer throws an error.

Chinese language localization now correctly shows up.

In Progress

Image linking is being worked on as a priority fix.
