Re: [OSM-talk] VisualEditor on the OSM wiki

2016-01-07 Thread Eugene Alvin Villar 
OK. I'm slightly amused at the praise for enabling VisualEditor on the OSM
Wiki, when there was a huge backlash on the English and German Wikipedias
when VisualEditor was turned on and made the default editor for
non-logged-in and newly registered users:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VisualEditor#Reception

For comparison, the backlash against VisualEditor (people were complaining
that it messed up templates, tables, and references) is similar (though
with more vitriol) to the one iD faced when it became OSM's default editor
(where people complained that it messed up relations and silently merged
tags in combined ways).

Siccome ci sono un paio di simbolini, tipo quello di invio, che
disorientano un pò, e cercando nell'help la pagina non è ancora fatta,
per chi cerca aiuto, ci sono i riferimenti su wikipedia, in italiano
alla seguente pagina:

https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Manuale

Volevo inserire il link provvisoriamente sulla wiki alla pagina
dell'help risultante, ma richiede l'english, giusto?

Hi,

A big thank you to the sysadmin team for enabling this on the OSM wiki :)
It's a really useful tool and it will surely help people to improve
the page content.

Happy new year everyone :)

I thought I missed the announcement, but looks like it was a secret gift
from the wiki sysadmins !

Thank you and have a good 2016 :)

Hi All,

Glad you like it. I enabled it 2 days ago.
https://github.com/openstreetmap/chef/commit/8d3c08fa5ec0a351555df7629083c7f54ad262fb

The Parsoid API is now supported, which should allow
http://www.kiwix.org/ to make an offline copy of the OSM wiki.

Kind regards,

Grant
