--- Comment #10 from James Forrester <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #8) > oh, you are right, it is just code to parse and display it in page settings > *blush*, sorry for confusion. coming back to the original suggestion: why not > improve the hacky gadget in the frame of the VE project, instead of including > it in the VE? The hacky gadget, as I recall: * Doesn't let you set non-Wikidata language links (as needed on non-Wikipedia wikis) * Doesn't let you set local language links to over-ride the ones from Wikidata (as needed on Wikipedia sometimes e.g. for [[Maggie Simpson]]) * Doesn't let you change/remove other languages' links without making you leave the site and going to Wikidata to use the tools there * Doesn't let you create new Wikidata entities for the page * Is based on local code that may differ between wikis (making VisualEditor work differently in different places) We agreed with the Wikidata team a few months ago that replacing this was a worthwhile thing to do. Incidentally, on the wider point, we're very keen to start moving away from editing being a monolithic block of actions that have to take place together, and instead letting users "curate" quickly - whether that's changing categories, language links, workflow action items (like "needs wikifying" or "nominate for deletion") or other tasks - without having to enter the editor. HOWEVER, that's not really the point of this bug, is it? -- 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
