This language has already been changed (but not deployed yet - that will be this afternoon) to: | VisualEditor is in 'beta'. You may encounter software issues, and you may | not be able to edit parts of the page. Click "Edit source" to switch to | wikitext mode – unsaved changes will be lost. I think this makes this a bit clearer, though not perfect. -- 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
