Technical Wishes: Check out new Interface for edit conflicts on talk pages

That is what the interface looks like.

Hi, in the past, you gave feedback on the new interface for solving edit conflicts, which is currently a beta feature. Thanks a lot again for your input! Since your comments mentioned edit conflicts on talk pages specifically, we are reaching out to you: Now there is a concept for better handling of edit conflicts on talk pages. This interface is shown to you when you write on a discussion page and another person writes a discussion post in the same line and saves it before you do. With this additional editing conflict interface you can adjust the order of the comments and edit your comment.

If you would like to know more about this feature, please visit our project page. The current plan is to launch this additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages when the two column conflict interface becomes default on all wikis (probably in 2-3 months’ time). Please have a look at the planned feature and let us know what you think on our central feedback page until March 10, 2020! -- For the Technical Wishes Team: Max Klemm (WMDE) (Diskussion) 14:27, 25.
