From an editor on English Wikipedia:

On the whole, I really like it. It's basically intuitive and seems to have
massively improved since I first tested it out. The main problem I'm having
involves the amount of effort now required to open external links in references
(especially those using {{cite web}} etc). As far as I can tell, I have to
click on the footnote, then the icon, then the text of the reference, then
another icon, then the url parameter, and once I'm done copy and pasting I have
to close two pop-ups. Is there any way around this that I've missed? It's not
an error or a bug, but it's the main barrier to efficient editing that I've
encountered so far. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:03, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
