            Bug ID: 50284
           Summary: VisualEditor lets users edit Translate translations,
                    but not save them
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Not sure if this should be filed under VisualEditor or Translate.

When clicking the "edit source" button on a translation or a page that uses the
Translate extension, it isn't possible to edit the wikitext directly; instead,
the user is told to use the Translate extension to change the content.

When clicking the "edit" button on a translation of a page that uses the
Translate extension, it's possible to edit the text with VisualEditor. At
first, I thought this was a feature, and that changes would be propagated to
the Translate extension, until I tried to save the page and got the following
error:

Error saving data to server: Unsuccessful request: Unknown error:
"tpt-target-page".

If VisualEditor can't be used to edit those pages, it probably shouldn't lead
users to believe it can :)
