Discussion

@DerHexer and Ciell:, the competition starts in few minutes. Just wanted to know if there are any updates about the banner. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 18:06, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

@Jeremyb, Martin Urbanec, Romaine, Steinsplitter, and Ата: - since no one has responded, I am pinging more central notice admins to create the banner. We have already passed the first day of the competition, so it would be very helpful for us to have the banner, otherwise we are losing days and participants. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 15:29, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Comment -- The banner from last year's competition is here for reference. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 15:29, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Central Notice admin comments

• I will take care of this. —DerHexer (Talk) 17:53, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

  @Bodhisattwa: I've created campaign and banner. Please let me know if these are correct and also check the preview. Once you confirm it, I can enable the campaign. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:24, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

  @DerHexer:, the banner looks too long in a line. Can there be a line break before "Submit photographs and win prizes!"? - Bodhisattwa (talk) 03:20, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

  @Bodhisattwa: Like that? Please be aware that banners look very different on various display sizes (you can use Ctrl and + or - to see that). Shall I enable it? Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 07:25, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

  @DerHexer:, sure, please enable that. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 07:31, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

  Done. —DerHexer (Talk) 10:04, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

  @DerHexer: - Thanks a lot! -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 12:17, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

• @DerHexer:, I am seeing the banner on the wikis once or twice daily max. Is it on strict diet? -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 17:00, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

  @DerHexer, Ciell, Jeremyb, Martin Urbanec, Romaine, Steinsplitter, and Ата:, I have not seen the banner on any of the wikis for the entire day today. Can any one of you please check what is going on? We are not getting any participation at all since last 5 days. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 19:00, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

  The banner has a diet to show 3 consecutive times every 7 days to registered users per project, desktop only. Ciell (talk) 19:52, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

  Indeed, and that's a very normal diet for anonymous banners. For logged-in we go up to 5 displays per week. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:09, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

  @DerHexer and Ciell:, thanks for the reply. Isn't 5 displays per week for logged-in users too low for a competition to attract participants? Can it not be increased at least on Wikimedia Commons where the event is happening? Wikis of Indian languages are also not having any other banner right now. Can this banner not be given more space there too? At this current frequency of display, the participation is so low that we are already thinking of cancelling the event midway, which would be very unfortunate for us. It would be really helpful to optimize the display. -- Bodhisattwa (talk) 03:52, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

  @Bodhisattwa: I've increased it to 10 displays per week but strongly doubt that this will change much. Please keep us updated. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:32, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
