You and I discussed this idea at some point (thanks for filing this as a bug, Oliver). The current issues I'm seeing with VisualEditor are that: (1) it's much more time-consuming to add a link (i.e., typing "[[]]" is quick while finding and using the link dialog box is slow, especially multiple times); and (2) it requires the use of a mouse to add a link. :-( Adjusting VisualEditor to interpret [[]] as a link would be a nice enhancement, though I see the danger in heading down this road. Perhaps we need a "I'm old school" checkbox somewhere in VisualEditor. ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
