Hello! I took a few days to test the new version. These is my feedback in case it can be useful to staff to resolve any issues.

The editor is quite simple to use and the source editor is definitely improved, especially with the different colors depending on the template used. The toolbar at the top and bottom of the page are great and easy to get used to. I also like the new user page look!

However, I encountered some issues, especially regarding the media. I am denied the ability to upload videos, and the galleries in the articles are acting funny. Sometimes they stack the images vertically on top of each other or they are of very different formats as if keeping their original size. Today, however, I managed to at least fix the former by changing the layout that seems to have resized the photos that, otherwise, were of the original size covering almost the entire article. I also noticed that sometimes the images disappear from the infobox after saving an edit and reappears by itself after a few hours. Purge doesn't change/speed up anything. Still regarding images, is there anything I can read to better understand how to use the current version of Special: Images? I have a little trouble using it.

Since Semantic MediaWiki (Js/CSS scripts?) are still soon to be deployed, I hope I'll be able to get back to using the custom features available before.

Like probably other admins, I preferred Wiki Activity over Recent Changes because it was easier to keep an eye on everything.
