Summary

In this task, we'll set up the patches needed for the rollout, and to monitor product health metrics for the feature.

Background

• The user information card is a feature available to permanent account users. The feature can be enabled/disabled via a preference.
• For the initial rollout, we need a way to enable this selectively for some subset of permanent account users to get feedback.
• We should make it easy for users to disable the feature (one idea is a "Preferences" link in the ellipsis menu for the component, see T384702: UserInfoCard: Design a clickable component to display account information)

Rollout plan

Q4

• Setup the project page
• Enable UI on testwiki for logged-in editors and invite community members to provide early feedback (T397292)

Q1

• Identify 6-7 communities with active admins where we think this idea will be good to trial and we can get feedback
• Share the project page and designs with those communities through Village pumps/other avenues
• Enable it on the trial wikis T405342: Enable UserInfoCard by default on a set of wikis

Q2

• Track usage patterns: Grafana dashboard, Superset
• Monitor feedback
• Plan for Q2 and beyond

Success metrics:

• Frequency of repeat opens of the popover (someone is actively clicking on it, ideally multiple times a day, and continued usage from day to day)
• Rate at which people disable it (no big spikes in users switching off the feature)
• Number of clicks on links in the menu
• Sentiment feedback on project talk page / on-wiki survey?

User stories

• As a product owner, I want to understand how the feature is being used, and if it is helpful to users.
• As a user being selected to test the feature, I want to know what data is being collected (i.e. metrics of success) and why.
• As a user with the feature enabled, I want to know how to easily disable the feature.
