Re: [Wikimediaau-l] Warning: Visual Editor - turn it on and it seems you can't turn it off!

2013-07-05 Thread Paul Foord
In Chrome there is a tab 'Edit source' which is my default, the visual
editor is difficult to use, or use effectively.

 Tried it - immediately realised it would be useless to me as it doesn't
 recognise infoboxes. I found that in Firefox and IE the Gadgets turn off
 option is not there, but in Chrome and Maxthon 3 it appears.

 IE 10 is already a bug in the queue, once functionality is fully in
 order on browsers that aren't a complete time-and-effort pit to
 support:

 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50085

 The current round is intended to give the thing a really, really good
 kicking and the devs are furiously fixing bugs on a daily and
 more-than-daily basis; this is not the final product.

 If you have specific and reportable problems, and you want them fixed,
 you should comment at:

VIsual editor was rolled out to soon, too many bugs not enough time to test
which is a common issue.

But all these issues and complaints are wasted if you just turn it off
because we need to accept the change and learn to work with it otherwise
how can we teach others to use it.

you do have the ability to choose edit source which is the wiki coding
anyway when your editing... its really not that much different to writing
an email on gmail

 There are hundreds of bugzilla entries for Visual Editor.  I'm pretty
 sure all the basic problems have been logged already.
