Vector 2022 is a desktop skin developed between 2019 and 2023 by the Wikimedia Foundation Web team with the goal of making the interface more welcoming and usable for readers and maintaining utility for existing editors.
It introduced changes to the navigation and layout of the site, added persistent elements such as a sticky header and table of contents, and made changes to the overall styling of the page. As of early January 2023, the skin was the default on more than 300 projects of various sizes, accounting for about 1.5 billion page views per month. Before the deployment on English Wikipedia, it was the most popular non-default skin, with more active editors using it than any other non-default skin (e.g., Monobook, Timeless).
In a 2022 request for comment, the skin was met with mixed reactions from commenters. The skin was updated in response to some of the comments. On January 18, 2023, the skin was turned on as the default on the desktop site. Users of non-default skins did not see any changes.
