Description

VisualEditor is a project to create a reliable, full-featured rich-text or "visual" HTML editor for the Web. Though VisualEditor itself is an HTML editor, it is integrated into platforms for use there, primary in MediaWiki-General with the VisualEditor-MediaWiki integration, used in conjunction with the Parsoid parsing service to provide the HTML+RDFa.

Our projects are arranged as follows:

VisualEditor – Anything related to VisualEditor, including related extensions.

VisualEditor-ContentEditable – Items related to the contentEditable technology at the core of VisualEditor, such as typing or selection issues.
VisualEditor-ContentLanguage – Items related to specific language issues, like interference with an Input Method Editor.
VisualEditor-CopyPaste – Items related to copying, cutting and pasting content.
VisualEditor-DataModel – Items related to the core data model code inside VisualEditor, like corruption issues.
VisualEditor-Edit Cards – Items related to the editing interface that shows additional details about, and actions related to, editable elements within articles.
VisualEditor-EditingTools – Items related to the main editing tools inside VisualEditor, like lists or text styling.
VisualEditor-Initialisation – Items related to the loading (and unloading) of VisualEditor itself.
VisualEditor-InterfaceLanguage – Items related to the i18n inside VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-Links – Items related to adding and editing links inside stand-alone VisualEditor. You probably want VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Links.
VisualEditor-Media – Items related to adding and editing media inside stand-alone VisualEditor. You probably want VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Media.
VisualEditor-Performance – Items related to the performance of VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-Tables – Items related to adding and editing tables inside VisualEditor.
VisualEditor-VisualDiffs – Items related to the visual diff system inside VisualEditor.

VisualEditor-MediaWiki – Items related to the use of VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Links – Items related to the adding and editing of links in VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Media – Items related to the adding and editing of media in VisualEditor inside MediaWiki.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Mobile – Items related to the use of VisualEditor inside MediaWiki on mobile devices.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-Plugins – Items related to the creation of VisualEditor tools for MediaWiki extensions.
VisualEditor-MediaWiki-References – Items related to the adding and editing of MediaWiki Cite references in VisualEditor.

-jem- added a comment to T370158: Please activate VisualEditor at Wikipedia namespace in eswiki.

Hi, indeed there are a few discussion/talk pages in our Wikipedia: namespace, particularly the ones of our local Village pump (Café), but we think it is a minor issue that we can assume, compared to the advantages of the change; perhaps we could add a warning at the top of those pages recommending to swap to the code editor in order to edit them, or any other similar idea that you suggest...

Hi @Florenciac, I have concerns to activate the Visual Editor on a Project namespace, because this namespace may contain talk pages (Visual Editor does not handle the indentation used in discussions very well). Are you sure this is a namespace that does not contain talk pages?

DLynch added a comment to T368603: External links added incorrectly in Source Editor.

I'm not entirely convinced that [https://example.com]https://example.com is sensible output for <a href="https://example.com" rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" class="external free" id="mwAw"></a><a href="https://example.com" rel="mw:ExtLink">https://example.com</a> -- it'd probably make more sense to discard the empty link entirely. That said, it's a bit of an edge case, and we should probably look at fixing the input rather than nitpicking the conversion.
