As you should be aware right now, Fandom is preparing for the launch of new page and article headers. They have already installed the page header on Community Central where you can try it out for yourself. Wikis will also be able to trial it, so I'm asking whether you would like to make the jump to the new page header? I cannot say whether trialling will run until it is changed globally or if it will be reverted back to the classic version following the trial period, but like Discussions, we ought to get used to it sooner or later. As of posting, the only working demo we've been given of the article header is on Community Central's main page, so that will probably be rolled out later on, so for now we're just dealing with the page header. Would you like it installed for trialling?

There is also another important styling aspect I'd like to bring up. As goes with the flat design trend, the somewhat iconic Edit, Share etc. buttons will likely be changed to flat versions at some later point, although I can't say as to how far this change will extend beyond the header previews we've been given (such as across Special pages and the editor). Whatever the case, I will have full control over the styling of these, so will be able to restore the current look if this is also covered by the sweep. While your feedback will be considered, I do intend to run a trial with a flat design so that you can see how that looks and can make an informed judgement.

Do share your feedback on both subjects! Thanks.
