https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51897 turi...@gmail.com changed: What|Removed |Added CC||turi...@gmail.com --- Comment #3 from turi...@gmail.com --- In anticipation of someone introducing the slippery slope argument that but if you do this you'll have to support all wikicode!!!: If this is implemented, you ''won't'' have to support all wikicode and parse it on the fly. This is not what is being asked at this bug. If you really want to support the uncommon case that someone really wanted to introduce two brackets (something that is useful only for discussing wikicode, nd therefore only for experienced users), you can always include a [[ symbol at the symbol toolbar. In good user interface design, you optimize for the frequent case and create workarounds for the exceptional situations, not the other way around. This is not an all-or-nothing proposition; you can put a hard limit on what you won't do, but it can be located at a useful place - the one that recognizes that you probably wanted to insert a wikilink and that answers with here, this is the standard way to insert a wikilink now instead of wikicode is not supported, I'm discarding your user action. The second one is much more friendly for infrequent users that learned just enough wikicode to insert a wikilink and not much more. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
