--- Comment #4 from This, that and the other <[email protected]> ---
There have been a lot of complaints about this on the enwiki feedback page. One
especially interesting point was raised by the ever-wise John Broughton:

---
["Save page"] is the same label as on the button, in the old editing interface,
that completed the edit session. Lots of effort has been made, over the years,
to encourage editors to write an edit summary before they click "Save page",
and now VE is designed exactly the opposite. The button ought to be labeled
"Finish edit" or "Continue" or "Final steps" or just about anything other than
"Save page".

The current problem is even worse than just one poorly labeled button. In VE,
after clicking "Save page", a dialog box appears that also has a "Save page"
button. So now an editor has to understand that the two "Save page" buttons do
not do the same thing. And documentation (when it's written) is going to have
to clarify which "Save page" button is being referred to - unless the label on
the first occurrence of "Save page" is changed, as it should be.
---

The button label on enwiki was modified to "Finish edit" per
[[MediaWiki:Visualeditor-toolbar-savedialog]].
