[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #4 from [email protected] --- What's the virtue of having no difference between reading and edit mode? I see none. If I'm in editing mode, I want to be reminded that I still need to close off the edit properly (give edit summary, save page), rather than accidentally just close down all tabs, or leave the computer and let it close itself messily after x hours). I may be juggling several open windows, in connection with the one edit or with other jobs (and because the page dialog obscures the article, I'm often opening a second copy of the page while I'm in VE so that I can actually see it while adding a category or stub template, as being quicker than closing the dialog box to see the information I need). Editing and reading are two different activities: someone editing has responsibilities - not to accidentally lean on keys and produce garbage, not to leave the page without a helpful edit summary. Someone reading... is just someone reading. -- 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
