56737,Don't release any new VE updates for three months,"**Author:** `Wikifram`
**Description:**
After the failure of VE (e.g. witness the opt-in at the three largest wikipedia versions), the WMF now comes with MW 1.22wmf19, which creates more errors than it solves for VE, as could be predicted by anyone remotely busy with VE. I have documented some problems I found with minimal testing, there are probably a lot more. The version doesn't do what the release notes claim (e.g. reflists can't be moved, not that they often need moving anyway; many templates can't be moved either), and doesn't solve the major problems that existed with the one thing that could somewhat be dragged, images.
Multiplying known problems instead of solving them, when there are plenty of major problems which have turned away most of your user- and testbase, is simply stupid.
No one is waiting for weekly updates (certainly not of this ""quality""). Please, PLEASE, stop it; get back to the bug list, solve the 50 most urgent ones, ''test them thoroughly yourselves"", and then come to us, present the improvements, and ''ask'' us whether we want to implement and test them.

My suspicion is that logged-in users are hitting certain pages, the pages are being cached, and then anons are receiving these cached pages (with the VE init JS loaded).

Your patchsets weren't ignored, we worked off them. At the time we honestly believed that this was unnecessary, and the code that uses them is written in a way that leads the reader to believe that it is unnecessary: if wmgVisualEditorDefault is false, wmgVisualEditorDisableForAnons is unused.
However, caching threw a wrench in all of this. Two wrongs made a right, if you will.

We don't mix user preference cache between logged-in users and logged-out users, this is definitely not what's happening.
What's happening is that a while ago the 'visualeditor-enable' preference was enabled by default on de.wikipedia.org. Though it was disabled for anonymous users by other means, that preference was there and as such is cached inside the anonymous user cache that visited pages while VE was enabled by default on de.wikipedia.org.
The 'other' means to disable for anons have been removed now that the preference is disabled again on de.wikipedia (it is now an opt-in for logged-in users). However this other means is not cached inside the page but globally from the startup module.
So people visiting the pages generated while VE was enabled by default are now getting VE since there is no 'disableForAnons' flag in place.
Roan's putting this in place now.",task_subcomment,"(In reply to comment #0)

Opt-in for everyone, that is to say it's off unless you turn it on in your preferences. In practice, anonymous users won't be able to opt in unless they create an account, because anons can't change their preferences.",task_subcomment,"(In reply to comment #7)

We also recognize that there are still significant areas for improvement (e.g. performance, handling of tables, insertion of special characters) as well as work we can do to reduce the incidence rate of problematic markup changes. As we continue to support the beta where it is deployed, we’ll also update the German Wikipedia community on progress in these areas, and prepare for re-enabling VisualEditor later in the calendar year.

Als Reaktion auf die Rückmeldungen der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia-Gemeinschaft werden wir den VisualEditor dort temporär wieder nur per Opt-In verfügbar machen. Darüber hinaus beabsichtigen wir nicht, die unmittelbare Planung für andere Sprachversionen zu verändern, es sei denn, es treten schwerwiegende Probleme auf.
Wie auch z.B. im Fall der niederländischen Wikipedia, die von Phase 2 der Beta ausgenommen wurde, versuchen wir, bei der weiteren Aktivierung des VisualEditor mit den Sprachversionen zusammen zu arbeiten und nehmen Bedenken ernst. VisualEditor ist die weitgehendste Änderung an der Benutzeroberfläche in der Geschichte unserer Projekte. VisualEditor ist aber noch Beta-Software, und der Erfolg des Projekts hängt sehr davon ab, dass wir ein einer positiven Partnerschaft zusammen arbeiten, um z.B. Vorlagen-Metadaten (TemplateData) hinzuzufügen (die von VisualEditor verwendet werden, um die Benutzeroberfläche für Vorlagen zu verbessern) und Dokumentation zu aktualisieren, und um mit Software-Problemen umzugehen. Wir schätzen die Geduld und das ehrliche Feedback der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia-Gemeinschaft, und gehen nicht davon aus, dass eine Kooperation ohne gegenseitiges Entgegenkommen funktionieren kann.
Wir erkennen auch an, dass es im VisualEditor noch viel Raum für Verbesserungen gibt. Das beinhaltet z.B. Performance, bessere Unterstützung für Tabellen und einen Dialog für das Einfügen von Sonderzeichen. In einigen Fällen können wir auch das Verhalten des Editors optimieren, um unerwünschte Änderungen am Wikitext zu reduzieren. Auch auf der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia werden Verbesserungen selbstverständlich für Opt-In-Nutzer kontinuierlich zur Verfügung stehen, und wir werden regelmäßige Ankündigungen über Neuerungen veröffentlichen. Unser Ziel ist eine Wiederaktivierung des VisualEditor in der Beta-Konfiguration später im Kalenderjahr.
Die Verwendung von Wikitext wird selbstverständlich auch nach der Wiederaktivierung des VisualEditor möglich sein. Der VisualEditor ist und bleibt optional, und kann während der Beta-Phase auch komplett aus der Benutzeroberfläche entfernt werden.

I think this is reasonable.
Regarding showing a tour only once: I don't think we have to add an explicit checkbox to show it exactly once. Currently the default behavior is...
If a user completes the tour or clicks the X to close we never show it again. So in this case, as a single step tour, clicking the ""Okay"" button or X would end the tour and it would never repeat. That is stored as a hidden preference, so it works across sessions, but not across wikis.
If we really want to tie it to a single page, there is also an isSinglePage variable we can set for the tour, which means no matter what it will only appear on that one page.",task_subcomment,"**swalling** wrote:

Yeah, I'm not convinced I know what we'd want to do.
Maybe just a simple ""you're using VisualEditor"" on first load for experienced users?
Maybe a set of ""add a {reference,template} by clicking here"" ones too? Maybe not?

I don't think that (comparing VE and wikitext) needs to be in the first tour. It's discoverable in the UI in a consistent way, plus people on-wiki will point to and explain the difference when necessary.",task_subcomment,"(In reply to comment #2)

TL;DR:
Unless VE team wants to own it, I think E3 can handle any tours of basic editing functionality (with and without VE). What we have is 1/2 way toward the changes Erik requested.
Full details:
We are working on adding better VE support in GuidedTour currently, and I've added Matt Flaschen since he's tackling that. We are shooting for feature parity with our previous guided tour of editing for the first time delivered to GettingStarted editors, with the exception being that there is no Preview step to point to in VE.
Also, soon we hope to test delivering a guided tour to all newly-registered editors, outside the GettingStarted funnel. (Docs: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Guided_tours). Whether we run that test on a wiki like Spanish or French instead of English depends on l10n of the ""first edit"" tour and whether VE support is ready. S Page is helping out with this test, so I've added him as well.
If we're interested in pointing out the difference between VE and wikitext to users right away, we could easily build that in as step for the guided tours delivered via GettingStarted and the general ""first edit"" tour we're planning. Currently with the tour that's in production, we just point to the Edit button and section edit buttons.

that is part of the template. This effectively splits the template and duplicates the rest of the template.
If you look at the diff in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jayaprakash_Narayan&diff=563627722&oldid=563627392, all the categories are between the end of the template and the table. The above experiment yielded something similar, except in the diff, all categories are moved up.
So, it does seem that when a user adds categories, new/old categories are being moved/inserted between the empty span and the table breaking the atomic encapsulated template into two.
Also note that this only seems to affect Persondata template
* in original wikitext, default sort template immediately follows the persondata template.

That is bug 47790. It's not really a blank line in the document; it's the ""potential"" place to insert some new content, until you click into it and insert some, at which point it's whatever you type in. But it's not really very obvious to users what it is.

**Description:**
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Kww/singlechartreftest is a simple test case for accessing references created by the singlechart template.
Singlechart directly creates references when called, using #ref (it cannot use tags because of issues involving the parsing sequence of templates and references). It will either create them with a default name that it generates algorithmically, or it will use the value of the ""refname"" parameter.
When editing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Kww/singlechartreftest, if the editor attempts to insert reference and chooses the option to ""use an existing reference"", three of the existing named references (sc_BillboardHot100_The Hollies, sc_Norwegian_The Hollies, and sc_Dutch100_The Hollies) aren't displayed at all. These are references that are available for the editor to use, but have not been currently reused in the article text. An examination of http://parsoid.wmflabs.org/en/User:Kww/singlechartreftest shows that Parsoid did pick up these names so VE should be able to display them.
sc_UK_Hollies is displayed, but no text is associated with it. Similarly with germancharts. Attempting to include these references works. Both of these references should have the full reference text displayed, although the editor should not be permitted to alter it.

54086,User preference to disable VisualEditor (VE product),"This bug is about the generalisation of the solution deployed in bug #50929 in the Wikimedia environment. Having in mind the medium term of the deployment of the VisualEditor in many/most of the MediaWiki wikis, it could be a good idea to give the sysadmins the choice of enabling or disabling the VisualEditor by default for registrated users, with a LocalSettings parameter wgVisualEditorDefault.
This would give the choice to the sysadmins to enable by default or not the VE for registrated users (for anons there is already the preference wgVisualEditorDisableForAnons), and this could be directly used in the Wikimedia environment to replace the parameter $wmgVisualEditorDefault.
To resolve this bug, the patch https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/75541/ could be generalised by renaming the new preference ""visualeditor-betatempdisable"" into ""visualeditor-preference-disable"", and depending of the variable wgVisualEditorDefault either the positive preference (for alpha/beta environments, ""Enable the VE"") or the negative preference (for production environments, ""Disable the VE"") would be used, the other preference being hidden with wgHiddenPrefs.
In the normal scenario the wiki change from beta to production environment, it would be easy for the sysadmin to change the wgVisualEditorDefault value from false to true and this would automatically activate the VE during the change, so that the users are aware of the new setting and have the possibility of seeing the new editor (some welcoming message could be displayed then) and if users don’t like it they are given the possibility to disable it (or not if the relevant preference is hidden, but this is a sysadmin/community choice).
I point out the default messages visualeditor-preference-enable/disable should have a general-wiki phrasing, and any Wikimedia customisation (about namespaces where it is enabled, about the time the parameter is available before possibly hide the preference) should be customised in the WikimediaMessages extension (see my comment https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50929#c34 ).

54032,VisualEditor: No easy way to add content before a template at the start of a line,"PamD at the English Wikipedia reports that there is no easy way to add new content between a reflist and a template that follows it before you save the page.
This is a problem if your workflow is to add the stub template before adding the external links, which is entirely reasonable.
Steps to reproduce (option 1):
1. create page with references and a reflist.
2. add a template (e.g. a stub template) after the reflist
3. add content between the references list and the template (e.g. an external links section).
Steps to reproduce (option 2):
1. Go to a page with no content between a reflist block and a template (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tyson_R._Roberts&oldid=565739822&veaction=edit )
2. Delete all content after the reflist:
3. Add a template (e.g. a stub template)
4. Add content between the references list and the template (e.g. an external links section).

This is a problem if your workflow is to add the stub template before adding the external links, which is entirely reasonable.
Steps to reproduce (option 1):
1. create page with references and a reflist.
2. add a template (e.g. a stub template) after the reflist
3. add content between the references list and the template (e.g. an external links section).
Steps to reproduce (option 2):
1. Go to a page with no content between a reflist block and a template (e.g. URL )
2. Delete all content after the reflist:
3. Add a template (e.g. a stub template)
4. Add content between the references list and the template (e.g. an external links section).

53343,VisualEditor: Automatically add title of the section to edit summary,"It would be very usefull if VE added the title of the section automatically to the edit summary, if the user only changed contents in one section. This is not the same request as bug 48429, the section should be added even if the user edited the whole page, but only changed contents of one section.
Rationale: The automatic section in the summary is very usefull if you check edits of other users. Two examples:
1. A user adds a new external link (without summary). Without the section you have to look at the diff, but if the edit summary contained a /* External links */ you can guess what the user did even without summary.
2. You want to find the user who added the image to section ""Foo"". Even if there are summaries like ""+image"" this doesn't help you much, but the summary /* Foo */ +image does help you. The section is also usefull if no additional summary is given, in the worst case you have to look at all changes to the whole article and to the section ""Foo"" to find the author.
Pseudo-algorithm:
1. Find the position of the first and the last change in the new text (i.e. find the common initial and final strings in the old and the new text).
2. Find the first headline above the last change (a line that starts with that character or before it and matches the pattern for headlines).
3. If this headline is before the first change, you found the section.
4. Else look for the next headline before it of higher level.
5. If there is such a headline, go to step 3, else more than one section was changed.

The problem is that the list is also template-affected, and needs to be marked as such. A change in transclusion output (say, from *foo to #foo) will change the list structure significantly, so it is not safe to mark the list items only.
The example page exposes a different issue though, which you mention as well: The comments between transclusions (which probably end up on their own line after expansion) break up the list in Parsoid, but don't do so in PHP (bug 52762). This is not surprising as the PHP parser strips those comments before doing anything else, but still something we could improve by not breaking up the list.
Sadly, the effect of this will be that the entire list will be template-affected.
This problem would not be there if the bullet for the list item was not templated:
* {{:Christian Delius}}
* [[Christina Rau]], geb. Delius (* 1956), deutsche Politologin
In this case we know that the first list item will always create an unordered list, no matter what the transclusion generates (ignoring unbalanced transclusions for now).

52915,context specific editor for templates?,"On English Wikipedia, it is stated that some common templates need a context specific editor.
Examples offered by (and with explanatory text by) User:Clem Rutter
****
*[[Template:convert]]
([[Template:frac]]
Those are simple- all we need is to display the parameters so they can be changed, when focus is lost they just display. For useability you could enter the the inline-template-editor by double clicking or ctrl-shift -click.
*[[Template:fact]]
*[[Template:cn]]
These two are more complex as editors are there to change the *cn to a reference- of which the *sfn template is ideal. So here on a double-click, you need to change a *cn to a *sfn and enter the inline-template-editor to add the fields which are Name|Year|pp=page-lastpage. For a sfn, on leaving, you need an alert that offers to take you to the reflist to confirm or edit if that reference is missing.
*[[Template:sfn]]
Explained above.
*[[Template:efn]]
Simplicity- there is only one parameter. Though an alert may be needed if the Notes {*{notelist|notes=}*} structure is not in place.
*[[Template:reflist]]-
fiendishly complex from a programming pov but functionally simple- as the functionality we need is
add a line in wiki code- I C&P common ones from a master list of commonly used texts in field that I keep in a subpage, or as a textfile on the desktop. An easy technique to teach when you are training at a museum or library as you can give your students the file on usbstick
change some data- for instance an isbn number
this can be achieved in a popup wikicode editor- or even gedit, vi, geaney, wordpad as no parsing is required.
([[Template:infobox]]
it is totally essential to just be able to change the content of a field visually. It is desirable to add new fields but this is of lower priority nigh essential, and this wont be achieved until the issue of recursive templates is resolved. (That rates as essential on my list.)
I leave the list there for a Linus test, so if you could pass this on to your dev team and ask them to add these to the functional specification. Here is an example of a sample edit for them to try Swanley it keeps coming up on my watchlist:
*first three references contain raw urls- probably could do with a *cite template her- not mentioned above
*fix a *cn
*change item in infobox
*convert acres to hectares needed
All of that could be easily achievable.-- Clem Rutter (talk) 18:20, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

It isn't sufficient because it disappoints the first human involved, this hypothetical new editor that is so confused by all of our existing material that he's errantly typing wikitext into a source window. VE could *help* him, but instead it pops a warning. The warning obviously isn't working, because we see saves of this material happening constantly. He goes ahead and saves it anyway, and he's bewildered and confused: he did just what the little cheat sheet he got from a friend told him to do, and it didn't work.
It's insufficient because it requires a second human being to then review the change, figure out what it was that the first human was actually attempting, and then correct it if he can.
It's insufficient because it's in support of a use-case that doesn't exist: there's no reason to put something like [[New York City|the Big Apple]] into articles. If there *were*, it's coming from an editor that is quite skilled enough to go into the source editor. If we need to support putting such things in using the visual editor, a workflow can be designed with a ""nowiki"" button to do it intentionally.
Instead, James Forrester and Erik Moller have decreed that the bug not be fixed, and that volunteers should eagerly flock to monitoring the output of an edit filter that detects each and every time this happens to that these volunteers can fix it.

It's insufficient because it's in support of a use-case that doesn't exist: there's no reason to put something like [[New York City|the Big Apple]] into articles. If there *were*, it's coming from an editor that is quite skilled enough to go into the source editor. If we need to support putting such things in using the visual editor, a workflow can be designed with a ""nowiki"" button to do it intentionally.
Instead, James Forrester and Erik Moller have decreed that the bug not be fixed, and that volunteers should eagerly flock to monitoring the output of an edit filter that detects each and every time this happens to that these volunteers can fix it. That's repulsive. That's a level of disregard for the volunteers that work on this project that is breathtaking. It's the *reason* that the VE team can fix dozens of bugs each hour and the Wikipedia community still complains that they are non-responsive.",SOLUTION DISCUSSION

True enough. Which is why you should fix the root bug in the first place instead of pushing it downstream for everyone else to deal with: warning newbies about inserting explicit wikimarkup is obviously still inadequate, as this edit filter still fires.",task_subcomment,"**kwwilliams** wrote:

I think that would be an exceptionally-bad thing to do to fellow editors and thus to the wiki at large, but that's a decision for local wikis' communities to make, and not appropriate for the developers to rule on.

You miss the point: in an edit-filter, I would advocate simply blocking the edit if it was VE and not allow it to be saved. If a human being consciously did it, there's at least a remote chance that it was a good edit worthy of examination.

I think various editors have said this before, but I'm feeling tired right now and have found it more of a problem than usually: a page open in VE needs to look much more distinctive.

Trying when editing articles to think ""Could I use VE for this?"" I came on an article where the {{AfD}} template had been removed and needed to be restored.
