As said in another comment it's testing for improving thr Wikipedia website. I personally find it to be significant improvement. Having shorter lines that are easier to read is really great.

Yeah, it looks pretty great, I hope they start adopting it more, although I can already see fan wikis being outdated.
Le French Wikipédia opted in becoming one of the early adopter wikis with the aim of modernizing & improving desktop experience:
Because it's using the new version of mediawiki.
Not sure if I'm just too used to the classic design, but the new one looks pretty cramped to me. Also, while I can't read French, it seemed like I got an ad at the top of the page, which hopefully isn't the direction Wikipedia is going.
Ravi d'apprendre que le wiki français est meilleur dans son interface. Cocorico
je ne parle le fran¢ais, ma je suis pipi cucú come Monson
Meilleur je sais pas, ça a foutu en l'air mes userstyles.
