Hello everyone!

This is my first time (originally) publishing a blog post on the Fandom Stars Wiki, and I have to admit I’m really excited for it!

We’ve been already announcing the upcoming launch of a new experiment about a redesign of the global navigation bar. Now I would like to share some extra details about it, in case you’re wondering about what’s coming soon!

Experiment Name: Top Nav Bar #2

Test Launch: (Tentative) Wednesday, April 3, 2024

Will Be Tested On: 12% of desktop users (6% control group, 3% logged-in users and 3% logged-out users) from all wikis using English language.

Hypothesis: Re-working the global nav bar would create more space into which we can move other features there and achieve a more engaging nav bar, alongside making other space on the page available.

Other notes: We’re adding an horizontal bar at the top with the search bar, the “Create a new wiki” and Notifications buttons, and the profile icon. While scrolling, the Top nav bar will be hidden in favor of the Wiki navigation.

Preliminary mockups:
