<p>VisualEditor's toolbar has a new drop-down menu that contains all character formatting: bold, italics, subscript, superscript, strikethrough, computer code, underline, and the ability to remove all formatting from text. </p><p>For more information about how to use VisualEditor, read <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User_guide" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide">the user guide</a>.</p></div> </div> <p>Since the last newsletter, the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor">VisualEditor</a> team has worked on some toolbar improvements, fixing bugs, and improving support for Indic languages as well as other languages with complex characters. The current focus is on improving the<b> reference dialog</b> and expanding the <b>new character inserter tool</b>. </p><p>There have been dozens of changes since the last newsletter. Here are some of the highlights: </p> <ul><li><b>Rich copying and pasting</b> is now available. If you copy text from another website, then character formatting and some other HTML attributes are preserved. This means, for example, that if you copy a pre-formatted suggested citation from a source <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/hus/citation.htm">like this</a>, then VisualEditor will preserve the formatting of the title in the citation. Keep in mind that copying the formatting may include formatting that you don't want (like section headings). If you want to paste plain, unformatted text onto a page, then use <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1249182868">.mw-parser-output .keyboard-key{border:1px solid #aaa;border-radius:0.2em;box-shadow:0.1em 0.1em 0.2em rgba(0,0,0,0.1);background-color:var(--background-color-neutral-subtle,#f8f9fa);background-image:linear-gradient(to bottom,var(--background-color-neutral,#eaecf0),var(--background-color-neutral-subtle,#f8f9fa),var(--background-color-neutral,#eaecf0));color:var(--color-base,#202122);padding:0.1em 0.3em;font-family:inherit;font-size:0.85em}</style><kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">Control</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">⇧ Shift</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">V</kbd> or <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1249182868"><kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">⌘ Command</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">⇧ Shift</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">V</kbd> (Mac).</li> <li><b>Auto-numbered external links</b> like <a class="external autonumber" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User_guide">[1]</a> can now be edited just like any other link. However, they cannot be created in VisualEditor easily.</li> <li>Several changes to the toolbar and dialogs have been made, and more are on the way. The toolbar has been simplified with a new drop-down text styles menu and an "insert" menu. <span style="color:black;background:yellow">Your feedback on the toolbar is wanted <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback/Toolbar#New_toolbar,_December_2013" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback/Toolbar">here</a>.</span> The transclusion/template dialog has been simplified. If you have <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures" title="Special:Preferences">enabled mathematical formula editing</a>, then the menu item is now called the formula editor instead of LaTeX.</li> <li>There is a new <b>character inserter</b>, which you can find in the new "insert" menu, with a capital Omega ("Ω"). It's a very basic set of characters. <span style="color:black;background:yellow">Your feedback on the character inserter is wanted <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback">here</a>.</span></li> <li><b>Saving the page</b> should seem faster by several seconds now.</li> <li>It is now possible to access VisualEditor by manually editing the URL, even if you are not logged in or have not opted in to VisualEditor normally.  To do so, append <code>?veaction=edit</code> to the end of the page name.  For example, change <code><a class="external free" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random</a></code> to <code><a class="external free" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random?veaction=edit">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random?veaction=edit</a></code> to open a random page in VisualEditor.  This is intended to support bug testing across multiple browsers, without requiring editors to login repeatedly.</li></ul> <p><b>Looking ahead:</b> The transclusion dialog will see further changes in the coming weeks, with a simple mode for single templates and an advanced mode for more complex transclusions. The new character formatting menu on the toolbar will get an arrow to show that it is a drop-down menu. The <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">reference dialog</a> will be improved, and the Reference item will become a button in the main toolbar, rather than an item in the Insert menu. </p><p>If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback">Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback</a>.

Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited <a href="/w/index.php?title=ShadowBall&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="ShadowBall (page does not exist)">ShadowBall</a>, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page <a href="/wiki/Rugby" class="mw-disambig" title="Rugby">Rugby</a> (<a href="//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/ShadowBall" class="extiw" title="tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/ShadowBall">check to confirm</a> | <a href="//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/ShadowBall" class="extiw" title="tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab solver.py/ShadowBall">fix with Dab solver</a>).

on "Use an existing reference" in the lower left corner. A list of all references, their numbers, and their ref names (if any) will be shown. You can search the list for any author, title, date, or other keyword. Read <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User_guide#Adding_an_existing_reference_to_a_new_place" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide">the user guide</a> for more information.</p></div> </div> <p>Since the last newsletter, the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor">VisualEditor</a> team has worked on some small changes to the user interface, such as moving the reference item to the top of the Insert menu, as well as some minor features and fixing bugs, especially for rich copying and pasting of references. </p><p>The biggest change was the addition of more features to the <b>image dialog</b>, including the ability to set alignment (left, right, center), framing options (thumbnail, frame, frameless, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Extended_image_syntax#none" title="Wikipedia:Extended image syntax">none</a>), adding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Alternative_text_for_images" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Alternative text for images">alt text</a>, and defining the size manually. There is still some work to be done here, including a quick way to set the default size. </p> <ul><li>The main priority is redesigning the <b>reference dialog</b>, with the goal of providing autofill features for ISBNs and URLs and streamlining the process. Current concept drawings are available at <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog</a>. <span style="color:black;background:yellow">Please share your <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">ideas about making referencing quick and easy</a> with the designers. </span></li> <li>A few bugs in the existing reference dialog were fixed. The toolbar was simplified to remove galleries and lists from the reference dialog. When you re-use references, it now correctly displays the references again, rather than just the number and name. If you paste content into a dialog that can't fit there (e.g. <code>==section headings==</code> in references), it now strips out the inappropriate HTML.</li> <li>You can now edit <a href="/wiki/Help:Gallery_tag" title="Help:Gallery tag"><b>image galleries</b></a> inside VisualEditor. At this time, the gallery tool is a very limited option that gives you access to the wikitext. It will see significant improvements at a later date.</li> <li>The <b>character inserter tool</b> in the "Insert" menu is being redesigned. Your <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Feedback#Special_characters_39625" class="extiw" title="mediawikiwiki:VisualEditor/Feedback">feedback on the special character inserter</a> is still wanted, especially if you depend on Wikipedia's character inserters for your normal editing rather than <a href="/wiki/Help:Entering_special_characters" title="Help:Entering special characters">using the ones built into your computer</a>.</li> <li>You can now see a help page about <b>keyboard shortcuts</b> in the page menu (three bars next to the Cancel button) (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T54844" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T54844">T54844</a>).</li> <li>If you edit <b>categories</b>, your changes will now display correctly after saving the page (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T50560" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T50560">T50560</a>).</li> <li><b>Saving the page</b> should be faster now (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T61660" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T61660">T61660</a>).</li> <li>Any community can ask to test a new tool to edit <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:TemplateData" title="Wikipedia:TemplateData">TemplateData</a> by leaving a note at <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T53734" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T53734">T53734</a>.</li></ul> <p><b>Looking ahead:</b> The link tool will tell you when you're linking to a disambiguation or redirect page. The warning about wikitext will hide itself after you remove the wikitext markup in that paragraph. Support for creating and editing redirects is in the pipeline. Looking further out, image handling will be improved, including default and upright sizes. The developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments, some behavioral magic words like DISPLAYTITLE, and in-line language setting (<code>dir="rtl"</code>). </p><p>If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback">Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback</a>.

Read <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User_guide" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide">the user guide</a> for more information.</p></div> </div> <p>Since the last newsletter, the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor">VisualEditor</a> team has mostly worked on changes to the template and image dialogs. </p><p>The biggest change in the last few weeks was the <b>redesign of the template dialog</b>. The template dialog now opens in a simplified mode that lists parameters and their descriptions. (The complex multi-item transclusion mode can be reached by clicking on "Show options" from inside the simplified template dialog.) Template parameters now have a bigger, auto-sizing input box for easier editing.  With today's update, searching for template parameters will become case-insensitive, and required template parameters will display an asterisk (<i>*</i>) next to their edit boxes. In addition to making it quicker and easier to see everything when you edit typical templates, this work was necessary to prepare for the <b>forthcoming simplified citation dialog</b>. The main priority in the coming weeks is building this new citation dialog, with the ultimate goal of providing autofill features for ISBNs, URLs, DOIs and other quick-fills. This will add a new button on the toolbar, with the citation templates available picked by each wiki's community. Concept drawings can be seen at <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog</a>. <span style="color:black;background:yellow">Please share your <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">ideas about making referencing quick and easy</a> with the designers. </span> </p> <ul><li>The <b>link tool</b> now tells you when you're linking to a disambiguation or redirect page. Pages that exist, but are not indexed by the search engine, are treated like non-existent pages (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T56361" class="extiw" title="phabricator:T56361">T56361</a>).</li> <li><b>Wikitext warnings</b> will now hide when you remove wikitext from the paragraph you are editing.</li> <li>The <b>character inserter tool</b> in the "Insert" menu has been slightly redesigned, to introduce larger buttons. Your <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Feedback#Special_characters_39625" class="extiw" title="mediawikiwiki:VisualEditor/Feedback">suggestions for more significant changes to the special character inserter</a> are still wanted.</li> <li>The <b>page options menu</b> (three bars, next to the Cancel button) has expanded. You can create and edit <b>redirect pages</b>, set page options like <code>__STATICREDIRECT__</code>, <code>__[NO]INDEX__</code> and <code>__</code><code>[NO]NEWEDITSECTION__</code>, and more.  New keyboard shortcuts are listed there, and include undoing the last action, clearing formatting, and showing the shortcut help window. If you switch from VisualEditor to wikitext editing, your edit will now be tagged.</li> <li>It is easier to edit <b>images</b>. There are more options and they are explained better. If you add new images to pages, they will also be default size.  You can now set image sizes to the default, if another size was previously specified. Full support for upright sizing systems, which more readily adapt image sizes to the reader's screen size, is planned.</li> <li>VisualEditor adds fake blank lines so you can put your cursor there. These "slugs" are now smaller than normal blank lines, and are animated to be different from actual blank lines.</li> <li>You can use the <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1249182868"><kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">Alt</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">S</kbd> or <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1249182868"><kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">⌘ Command</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">⌥ Option</kbd>+<kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap">S</kbd> <b>shortcuts to open the save window</b>, and you can preview your edit summary when checking your changes in the save window.</li> <li>After community requests, VisualEditor has been deployed to the Interlingual Occidental Wikipedia, the Portuguese Wikibooks, and the French Wikiversity.</li> <li>Any community can ask for custom icons for their language in the character formatting menu (bold, italic, etc.) by making a request on Bugzilla or by contacting Product Manager <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Jdforrester_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="mediawikiwiki:User:Jdforrester (WMF)">James Forrester</a>.</li></ul> <p>The developers apologize for a regression bug with the deployment on 6 March 2014, which caused the incorrect removal of <code>|upright</code> size definitions on a handful of pages on the English Wikipedia, among others. The root cause was fixed, and the broken pages were fixed soon after. </p><p><b>Looking ahead:</b>  Several template dialogs will become more compact. Looking further out, the developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments. You will be able to see the Table of Contents change live as you edit the page, rather than it being hidden. In-line language setting (<code>dir="rtl"</code>) may be offered to a few Wikipedias soon. </p><p>If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback">Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback</a> or by joining the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours" class="extiw" title="meta:IRC office hours">office hours</a> on 19 April 2014 at <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?hour=20&amp;min=00&amp;sec=0&amp;day=19&amp;month=04&amp;year=2014">2000 UTC</a>.

menu, press "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽" and select the appropriate template from the menu. </p><p>Existing citations that use these templates can be edited either using the "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽" tool or by selecting the reference and choosing the "⧼visualeditor-dialogbutton-reference-tooltip⧽" item in the "Insert" menu. </p><p>Read <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/User_guide" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/User guide">the user guide</a> for more information. </p> </div></div> <p>Since the last newsletter, the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor">VisualEditor</a> team has mostly worked on the new citation tool, improving performance, reducing technical debt, and other infrastructure needs. </p><p>The biggest change in the last few weeks is the new <b>citation template menu</b>, labeled "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽". The new citation menu offers a locally configurable list of citation templates on the main toolbar. It adds or opens references using the simplified template dialog that was deployed last month. This tool is in addition to the "⧼visualeditor-dialogbutton-reference-tooltip⧽" item in the "Insert" menu, and it is not displayed unless it has been configured for that wiki. To enable this tool on your wiki, see the instructions at <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Citation_tool" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Citation tool">VisualEditor/Citation tool</a>. </p><p>Eventually, the VisualEditor team <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Cite-from-id" class="extiw" title="mw:Cite-from-id">plans to add autofill features</a> for these citations. When this long-awaited feature is created, you could add an ISBN, URL, DOI or other identifier to the citation tool, and VisualEditor would automatically fill in as much information for that source as possible. The concept drawings can be seen at <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog</a>, and <mark>your <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Design/Reference_Dialog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog">ideas about making referencing quick and easy</a> are still wanted.</mark> </p> <ul><li>There is a <b>new <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures" title="Special:Preferences">Beta Feature for setting content language and direction</a></b>.  This allows editors who have opted in to use the "Language" tool in the "Insert" menu to add HTML span tags that label text with the language and as being left-to-right (LTR) or right-to-left (RTL), like this:  <code>&lt;span lang="en" dir="ltr">English&lt;/span></code>. This tool is most useful for pages whose text combines multiple languages with different directions, common on Right-to-Left wikis.</li> <li>The tool for <b>editing mathematics formulae</b> in VisualEditor has been slightly updated and is now available to all users, as the "⧼math-visualeditor-mwmathinspector-title⧽" item in the "Insert" menu. It uses LaTeX like in the wikitext editor.</li> <li>The <b>layout of template dialogs has been changed</b>, putting the label above the field.  Parameters are now called "fields", to avoid a technical term that many editors are unfamiliar with.</li> <li><b><a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Portal/TemplateData" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Portal/TemplateData">TemplateData</a> has been expanded</b>:  You can now add "suggested" parameters in TemplateData, and VisualEditor will display them in the template dialogs like required ones.  "Suggested" is recommended for parameters that are commonly used, but not actually required to make the template work.  There is also a new type for TemplateData parameters: wiki-file-name, for file names.  The template tool can now tell you if a parameter is marked as being obsolete.</li> <li>Some templates that previously displayed strangely due to absolute CSS positioning hacks should now display correctly.</li> <li>Several messages have changed: The notices shown when you save a page have been merged into those used in the wikitext editor, for consistency.  The message shown when you "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cancel⧽" out of an edit is clearer. The beta dialog notice, which is shown the first time you open VisualEditor, will be hidden for logged-in users via a user preference rather than a cookie.  As a result of this change, <b>the beta notice will show up one last time for all logged-in users</b> on their next VisualEditor use after Thursday's upgrade.</li> <li>Adding a category that is a <b>redirect to another category</b> prompts you to add the target category instead of the redirect.</li> <li>In the "Images and media" dialog, it is no longer possible to set a redundant border for thumbnail and framed images.</li> <li>There is a <b>new Template Documentation Editor for TemplateData</b>.  You can test it by editing a documentation subpage (not a template page) at Mediawiki.org: edit <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Sandbox/doc" class="extiw" title="mw:Template:Sandbox/doc">mw:Template:Sandbox/doc</a>, and then click "Manage template documentation" above the wikitext edit box.  If your community would like to use this TemplateData editor at your project, please contact product manager <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Jdforrester_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="m:User:Jdforrester (WMF)">James Forrester</a> or file an enhancement request in Bugzilla.</li> <li>There have been multiple small changes to the appearance:  External links are shown in the same light blue color as in MediaWiki.  This is a lighter shade of blue than the internal links.  The styling of the "Style text" (character formatting) drop-down menu has been synchronized with the recent font changes to the Vector skin.  VisualEditor dialogs, such as the "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-savedialog⧽" dialog, now use a "loading" animation of moving lines, rather than animated GIF images.  Other changes were made to the appearance upon opening a page in VisualEditor which should make the transition between reading and editing be smoother.</li> <li>The developers merged in many minor fixes and improvements to MediaWiki interface integration (e.g., edit notices), and made VisualEditor handle <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Education_Program" class="extiw" title="mw:Extension:Education Program">Education Program</a> pages better.</li> <li>At the request of the community, VisualEditor has been deployed to <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/" class="extiw" title="commons:">Commons</a> as an opt-in. It is currently available by default for 161 Wikipedia language editions and by <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures" title="Special:Preferences">opt-in through Beta Features</a> at all others, as well as on several non-Wikipedia sites.</li></ul> <p><b>Looking ahead:</b>  The toolbar from the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PageTriage" class="extiw" title="mw:Extension:PageTriage">PageTriage extension</a> will no longer be visible inside VisualEditor. More buttons and icons will be accessible from the keyboard.  The "Keyboard shortcuts" link will be moved out of the "Page options" menu, into the "Help" menu. Support for upright image sizes (preferred for accessibility) and inline images is being developed. You will be able to see the Table of Contents while editing. Looking further out, the developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments. VisualEditor will be available to all users on mobile devices and tablet computers. It will be possible to upload images to Commons from inside VisualEditor. </p><p>If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Feedback" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Feedback">mw:VisualEditor/Feedback</a> or by joining the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours" class="extiw" title="meta:IRC office hours">office hours</a> on Thursday, 19 June 2014 at <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?hour=10&amp;min=00&amp;sec=0&amp;day=19&amp;month=05&amp;year=2014">10:00 UTC</a>.

When you edit a reference, you can now empty it and click the "use an existing reference" button to replace it with another reference instead. </li> <li>It is now possible to edit <b>inline images</b> with VisualEditor. Remember that inline images cannot display captions, so existing captions get removed. Many other bugs related to images were also fixed.</li> <li>You can now add and edit <code>{{DISPLAYTITLE}}</code> and <code>__DISAMBIG__</code> in the "Page options" menu, rounding out the full set of page options currently planned.</li> <li>The tool to insert <b>special characters</b> is now wider and simpler.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Looking_ahead" data-mw-thread-id="h-Looking_ahead-VisualEditor_global_newsletter—June_2014"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Looking_ahead-VisualEditor_global_newsletter—June_2014"></span>Looking ahead<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Looking_ahead-VisualEditor_global_newsletter—June_2014"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=11" title="Edit section: Looking ahead"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The VisualEditor team has posted a draft of their goals for the next fiscal year.

Based on user feedback, the buttons are now labeled with simple words (like "Cancel" or "Done") instead of potentially confusing icons (like "&lt;" or "X"). Many of the buttons to edit links, images, and other items now also show the linked page, image name, or other useful information when you click on them. </p> <ul><li><b>Hidden HTML comments</b> (notes visible to editors, but not to readers) can now be read, edited, inserted, and removed. A small icon (a white exclamation mark on a dot) marks the location of each comments. You can click on the icon to see the comment.</li> <li>You can now <b>drag and drop text</b> and templates as well as images. A new placement line makes it much easier to see where you are dropping the item. Images can no longer be dropped into the middle of paragraphs.</li> <li><b>All references and footnotes (</b><code>&lt;ref></code><b> tags) are now made through the "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽" menu</b>, including the "⧼visualeditor-dialogbutton-reference-tooltip⧽" (manual formatting) footnotes and the ability to re-use an existing citation, both of which were previously accessible only through the "Insert" menu. The "⧼visualeditor-dialogbutton-referencelist-tooltip⧽" is still added via the "Insert" menu.</li> <li>When you add an image or other media file, you are now prompted to add an <b>image caption</b> immediately. You can also replace an image whilst keeping the original caption and other settings.</li> <li>All tablet users visiting the <b>mobile web</b> version of Wikipedias will be able to opt-in to a version of VisualEditor from 14 August. You can test the new tool by choosing the beta version of the mobile view in the Settings menu.</li> <li>The <b>link tool</b> has a new "Open" button that will open a linked page in another tab so you can make sure a link is the right one.</li> <li>The <b>"Cancel" button</b> in the toolbar has been removed based on user testing. To cancel any edit, you can leave the page by clicking the Read tab, the back button in your browser, or closing the browser window without saving your changes.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Looking_ahead_2" data-mw-thread-id="h-Looking_ahead_2-VisualEditor_newsletter—July_and_August_2014"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Looking_ahead_2-VisualEditor_newsletter—July_and_August_2014"></span>Looking ahead<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Looking_ahead_2-VisualEditor_newsletter—July_and_August_2014"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=14" title="Edit section: Looking ahead"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The team posts details about planned work on the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Roadmap" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap">VisualEditor roadmap</a>.

A link inside a template, to a local page that does not exist, will now show red, exactly as it does when reading the page. Due to a error, for about two weeks this also affected all external links inside templates. Opening an auto-numbered link node like <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://example.com">[2]</a> with the keyboard used to open the wrong link tool.

Several new versions of the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OOjs_UI" class="extiw" title="mw:OOjs UI">OOjs UI</a> library have also been released, and these also affect the appearance of VisualEditor and other MediaWiki software extensions.

In many cases, opening the page in VisualEditor is now faster than opening it in the wikitext editor. The new system has improved the code speed by 37% and <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/RESTBase" class="extiw" title="mw:RESTBase">network speed</a> by almost 40%. </p><p>The Editing team is slowly adding <b>auto-fill features</b> <b>for citations</b>. This is currently available only at the French, Italian, and English Wikipedias. The <b><a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid" class="extiw" title="mw:Citoid">Citoid service</a></b> takes a <a href="/wiki/URL" title="URL">URL</a> or <a href="/wiki/Digital_object_identifier" title="Digital object identifier">DOI</a> for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections by contributing to the Citoid service's definitions for each website. </p><p>Citoid requires good <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:TemplateData" class="extiw" title="mw:Help:TemplateData">TemplateData</a> for your citation templates. If you would like to request this feature for your wiki, please post a request in the <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/citoid/" class="extiw" title="phab:tag/citoid/">Citoid project on Phabricator</a>. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki. </p><p>The <b>special character inserter</b> has been improved, based upon feedback from active users. After this, VisualEditor was made available to all users of Wikipedias on the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Rollouts" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts">Phase 5</a> list on 30 March. This affected 53 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including <b>Afrikaans</b>, <b>Azerbaijani</b>, <b>Breton</b>, <b>Kyrgyz</b>, <b>Macedonian</b>, <b>Mongolian</b>, <b>Tatar</b>, and<b> Welsh</b>. </p><p>Work continues to support languages with complex requirements, such as Korean and Japanese. These languages use <a href="/wiki/Input_method_editor" class="mw-redirect" title="Input method editor">input method editors</a> ("IMEs”). Recent improvements to cursoring, backspace, and delete behavior will simplify typing in VisualEditor for these users. </p><p>The design for the image selection process is now using a "masonry fit" model. Images in the search results are displayed at the same height but at variable widths, similar to bricks of different sizes in a masonry wall, or the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images#Mode_parameter" class="extiw" title="mw:Help:Images">"packed" mode in image galleries</a>. This style helps you find the right image by making it easier to see more details in images. </p><p>You can now <b>drag and drop categories</b> to re-arrange their order of appearance ​on the page. </p><p>The pop-up window that appears when you click on a reference, image, link, or other element, is called the "context menu". It now displays additional useful information, such as the destination of the link or the image's filename. The team has also added an explicit "Edit" button in the context menu, which helps new editors open the tool to change the item. </p><p><b>Invisible templates are marked by a puzzle piece icon</b> so they can be interacted with. Users also will be able to see and edit HTML anchors now in section headings. </p><p>Users of the TemplateData GUI editor can now set a string as an optional text for the 'deprecated' property in addition to boolean value, which lets you tell users of the template what they should do instead (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90734" class="extiw" title="phab:T90734">T90734</a>). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Looking_ahead_7" data-mw-thread-id="h-Looking_ahead_7-VisualEditor_News_#2—2015"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Looking_ahead_7-VisualEditor_News_#2—2015"></span>Looking ahead<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Looking_ahead_7-VisualEditor_News_#2—2015"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=36" title="Edit section: Looking ahead"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The special character inserter in VisualEditor will soon use the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki will also have the option of creating a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Instructions for customizing the list will be posted <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Special_characters" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Special characters">at mediawiki.org</a>. </p><p>The team is <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90666" class="extiw" title="phab:T90666">discussing a test of VisualEditor</a> with new users, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors.

<p>Since the last newsletter, the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor">Editing Team</a> has created new interfaces for the link and citation tools, as well as fixing many bugs and changing some elements of the design. Some of these bugs affected users of VisualEditor on mobile devices. Status reports are posted <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/changelog" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/changelog">on Mediawiki.org</a>. The worklist for April through June is available <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/sprint/board/1113/" class="extiw" title="phab:project/sprint/board/1113/">in Phabricator</a>. </p><p>A <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:VisualEditor%27s_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study" class="extiw" title="m:Research:VisualEditor's effect on newly registered editors/May 2015 study">test of VisualEditor's effect on new editors</a> at the English Wikipedia has just completed the first phase. During this test, half of newly registered editors had VisualEditor automatically enabled, and half did not. The main goal of the study is to learn which group was more likely to save an edit and to make productive, unreverted edits. Initial <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:VisualEditor%27s_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study#Results" class="extiw" title="m:Research:VisualEditor's effect on newly registered editors/May 2015 study">results will be posted at Meta</a> later this month. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Recent_improvements_5" data-mw-thread-id="h-Recent_improvements_5-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Recent_improvements_5-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015"></span>Recent improvements<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Recent_improvements_5-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=39" title="Edit section: Recent improvements"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><b>Auto-fill features</b> <b>for citations</b> are available at a few Wikipedias through the <b><a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid" class="extiw" title="mw:Citoid">citoid service</a></b>. Citoid takes a <a href="/wiki/URL" title="URL">URL</a> or <a href="/wiki/Digital_object_identifier" title="Digital object identifier">DOI</a> for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. If Citoid is enabled on your wiki, then the design of the citation workflow changed during May. All citations are now created inside a single tool. Inside that tool, choose the tab you want (⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-auto⧽, ⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-manual⧽, or ⧼citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-reuse⧽). The cite button is now labeled with the word "⧼visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label⧽" rather than a book icon, and the autofill citation dialog now has a more meaningful label, "⧼Citoid-citeFromIDDialog-lookup-button⧽", for the submit button. </p><p>The <b>link tool</b> has been redesigned based on feedback from Wikipedia editors and user testing. It now has two separate sections: one for links to articles and one for external links. When you select a link, its pop-up context menu shows the name of the linked page, a thumbnail image from the linked page, Wikidata's description, and/or appropriate icons for disambiguation pages, redirect pages and empty pages. Search results have been reduced to the first five pages. Several bugs were fixed, including a dark highlight that appeared over the first match in the link inspector (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T98085" class="extiw" title="phab:T98085">T98085</a>).   </p><p>The <b>special character inserter</b> in VisualEditor now uses the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki can also create a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Please read the instructions for customizing the list <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Special_characters" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Special characters">at mediawiki.org</a>. Also, there is now a tooltip to describing each character in the special character inserter (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T70425" class="extiw" title="phab:T70425">T70425</a>). </p><p>Several improvements have been made to <b>templates</b>. When you search for a template to insert, the list of results now contains descriptions of the templates. The parameter list inside the template dialog now remains open after inserting a parameter from the list, so that users don’t need to click on "⧼visualeditor-dialog-transclusion-add-param⧽" each time they want to add another parameter (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T95696" class="extiw" title="phab:T95696">T95696</a>). The team added a <b>new property for TemplateData</b>, "Example", for template parameters. This optional, translatable property will show up when there is text describing how to use that parameter (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T53049" class="extiw" title="phab:T53049">T53049</a>). </p><p>The <b>design</b> of the main toolbar and several other elements have changed slightly, to be consistent with the MediaWiki theme. In the Vector skin, individual items in the menu are separated visually by pale gray bars. Buttons and menus on the toolbar can now contain both an icon and a text label, rather than just one or the other. This new design feature is being used for the cite button on wikis where the Citoid service is enabled. </p><p>The team has released a long-desired improvement to the handling of <b>non-existent images</b>. If a non-existent image is linked in an article, then it is now visible in VisualEditor and can be selected, edited, replaced, or removed. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Let's_work_together_3" data-mw-thread-id="h-Let&#039;s_work_together_3-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015-2015-06-06T17:31:00.000Z"><span id="Let.27s_work_together_3"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Let's_work_together_3-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015-2015-06-06T17:31:00.000Z"></span>Let's work together<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Let's_work_together_3-VisualEditor_News_#3—2015-2015-06-06T17:31:00.000Z"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=40" title="Edit section: Let&#039;s work together"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Whatamidoing_(WMF)-2015-06-06T17:31:00.000Z-Let's_work_together_3"></span>Share your ideas and ask questions at <a class="external text" href="https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=VisualEditor/Feedback&amp;lqt_method=talkpage_new_thread">mw:VisualEditor/Feedback</a>.</li> <li>The weekly task triage meetings continue to be open to volunteers, each Wednesday at <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150609T12&amp;p1=224&amp;am=30">12:00 (noon) PDT</a> (19:00 UTC).

Please follow the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Special_characters" class="extiw" title="mw:VisualEditor/Special characters">instructions at mediawiki.org</a> to put the characters you want at the top.  </p><p>In other changes, if you need to fill in a <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/CAPTCHA" class="extiw" title="mw:CAPTCHA">CAPTCHA</a> and get it wrong, then you can click to get a new one to complete. VisualEditor can now display and edit <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Graph" class="extiw" title="mediawikiwiki:Extension:Graph">Vega-based graphs</a>. If you use the Monobook skin, VisualEditor's appearance is now more consistent with other software.   </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Future_changes" data-mw-thread-id="h-Future_changes-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Future_changes-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015"></span>Future changes<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Future_changes-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=44" title="Edit section: Future changes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The team will be changing the <b>appearance of selected links</b> inside VisualEditor. The purpose is to make it easy to see whether your cursor is inside or outside the link. When you select a link, the link label (the words shown on the page) will be enclosed in a faint box. If you place your cursor inside the box, then your changes to the link label will be part of the link. If you place your cursor outside the box, then it will not. This will make it easy to know when new characters will be added to the link and when they will not. </p><p>On the English Wikipedia, 10% of newly created accounts are now offered both the visual and the wikitext editors. A <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:VisualEditor%27s_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study" class="extiw" title="m:Research:VisualEditor's effect on newly registered editors/May 2015 study">recent controlled trial</a> showed no significant difference in survival or productivity for new users in the short term. New users with access to VisualEditor were very slightly less likely to produce results that needed reverting. You can learn more about this by watching a video of the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research/Showcase#July_2015" class="extiw" title="mediawikiwiki:Wikimedia Research/Showcase">July 2015 Wikimedia Research Showcase</a>. The proportion of new accounts with access to both editing environments will be gradually increased over time. Eventually all new users have the choice between the two editing environments. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Let's_work_together_4" data-mw-thread-id="h-Let&#039;s_work_together_4-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015-2015-08-08T00:01:00.000Z"><span id="Let.27s_work_together_4"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Let's_work_together_4-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015-2015-08-08T00:01:00.000Z"></span>Let's work together<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Let's_work_together_4-VisualEditor_News_#4—2015-2015-08-08T00:01:00.000Z"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Quadtripplea&amp;action=edit&amp;section=45" title="Edit section: Let&#039;s work together"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Whatamidoing_(WMF)-2015-08-08T00:01:00.000Z-Let's_work_together_4"></span>Share your ideas and ask questions at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback">Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback</a>.</li> <li><mark>Can you read and type in Korean or Japanese?</mark> Language engineer <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:DChan_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="mw:User:DChan (WMF)">David Chan</a> needs people who know which tools people use to type in some languages.

You may be interested in participating in the <b><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa/The_Africa_Destubathon" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon">African Destubathon</a></b> which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing, whether it's a river in Malawi, a Nigerian footballer, or a South African civil rights activist, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. For those of you who signed up to the North African contest, that will hopefully be held in the new year. Thanks. --<a href="/wiki/User:MediaWiki_message_delivery" title="User:MediaWiki message delivery">MediaWiki message delivery</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:MediaWiki_message_delivery" title="User

(The default edit summary is "Reply".) A "ping" feature is available in the Reply tool's visual editing mode. This feature searches for usernames.

The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Glossary" class="extiw" title="mw:Talk pages project/Glossary">newer editors</a> communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor. </p><p>The key results were: </p> <ul><li>Newer editors who had automatic ("default on") access to the Reply tool were <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/">more likely</a> to post a comment on a talk page.</li> <li>The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/">less likely</a> to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing.</li></ul> <p>These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful. </p><p><b>Looking ahead</b> </p><p>The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias. </p><p>The next step is to <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T280599" class="extiw" title="phab:T280599">resolve a technical challenge</a>. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267379" class="extiw" title="phab:T267379">Wikipedias that participated in the study</a>. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis. </p><p>You can turn on "Discussion Tools" <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures" title="Special:Preferences">in Beta Features</a> now.

Please review these policies, including the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations">FAQ page on organizations</a> to determine if this applies to you. </p><p>Common mistakes or beliefs about promotional editing center on the assumption that promotional editing only applies to promotion for commercial gain. Some tags or G11 nominations are met with confusion by creators, particularly if they spend much time reading or creating corporate documents, mission/vision statements, or similar copy for their organization. The frequent exposure to promotional tone may make it difficult to notice non-neutral phrases or styles, as the editor has grown accustomed to seeing it as everyday writing or speech. This can be difficult, but not impossible, to unlearn. </p><p>Another common assumption is that the prohibition against promotional editing applies only to businesses or organizations. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:G11" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:G11">Anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc.</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RESUME" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RESUME">CV/resumé</a>'s are by their nature promotional. </p><p>Wikipedia is an encyclopedia-- subjects must meet <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:N" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:N">notability guidelines</a> with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RS">reliable sources</a> that are <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:IS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:IS">unconnected with the subject</a> and providing <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">verifiable information</a>. <b>That generally means someone unconnected with the subject needs to have written a great deal about the subject. </b> Please see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">this page on citing sources</a>. <a href="/wiki/Template:Cite" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Cite">This page</a> has templates you can use in citing your sources.
